How do i get better at aiming?

[Goose]

I finally got to play with the big dogs. tier V baby. Playing with other people now.


Im not used to it tho. Im used to bots. All these players just ♥♥♥♥♥♥ snipe me from across the map and absolutely demolish my ship. But i return fire and cant hit the side of a barn....from the inside.


Tips please?

Dont hit where the target is, hit where the target is going to be by calculating its present course and speed. Leading the target at longer ranges is much tougher. Practice and more practice

thats what i always try to do, but i miss everytime while the enemy is headshotting my captain from 60 km lmao

Practice. Aiming in this game is something where tips don't work. Each person uses a differrent technique and each one learned it on there own. To get better at aiming you need three things. 1 a ship with good accuracy. Some ships have none so missing with them is fine. 2. Practice you need to learn to judge speed distance and shell travel time as well as where you can pen the enemy and thus where on there ship you need to be aiming. Lastly you need to get familiar with your ships guns. each ship has its own unqiue guns and shells and they all travel at differrent speeds and act differrently at the ends of there paths. To get better at aiming you should focus on the above mentioned tips and other wise just throw your head at the wall and keep shooting. You miss 100 percent of the shots you dont take. Gl hope this helps.

You are new install Modstation it will help you more than I can

[Postron]

Get the modstation from the games website then install the following mods:
- Nomogramm Classic (under dynamic crosshairs)
This mod will change the numbers over the horizontal Line for the crosshair to actually be the
lead required to hit a ship going 30kn and 20kn (the lower numbers) respectively. (You have to
activate this mod in the game setting by selecting the crosshair)
- Ship Info Pannel: Enemy
This mod will display some usefull info about the ship you are targeting including the maximum
speed of the class.

This will give you a good point to start with, from there on out you will start to get accustomed to compensate for other factor and will develop a feel over time.

German BBs don't really aim at the waterline unlike some accurate BBs tho

ok ok here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nPXmjPg5TWg this video will help because listen,, its not about the aim.. its about you multitasking skills, and once you master dodging bullets, and never heading towards the middle, youll be good, and no only that, but you ned to look at the tick marks for whter your bullets land, and if it isnt on the ship your aming for, then put it on it and you'll see remarkable progress... i just been playing this game for 11.6 hours and man it is amazing how much ive learned

Instead of doing random battles, try playing co-op for more practice with your shooting, when you are more confident with your shooting go back to random battles.

If you are not sure the difference random battles are basically all players, co-op only your team is people the other side is bots, which are a bit dumber, well usually anyway than players.

I was not aware there was such thing as accuracy. I will have to keep this in mind
