Each time I play this game, I seem to get worse and worse.

Hello, Counter-Strike community

I have been facing an issue lately that I can't seem to find a solution to. I've tried changing my config to something that might suit me better, aim training on various workshop maps, deathmatch, and even watching coaching videos. However, none of these seem to be working for me.

Although I'm not new to the game, I used to play it on my brother's account since it became free in 2018. I usually play wingman nuke because longer matches make me feel bored, and when I'm losing, I tend to get frustrated and sometimes even become toxic to my teammates, which doesn't help anyone.

I really enjoy playing this game, and I don't want to leave it because the first time I played it (around early 2018 on 1.6), I fell in love with it. So, I wanted to ask the community if anyone has a solution to my problem. Hopefully, I can find a way to enjoy playing the game again without getting frustrated.

What is it that makes you get so frustrated and be toxic?

The lose, each time getting headshotted, my playstyle is good, its something a gold nova would never play. but i still get beamed. follow recoil crosshair also didnt work. its just i get killed every single round, i dont have the prime i used to have in 2021 and i played the game often all the time. i dont know where the issue came.

Losing is part of the game though. If youre getting so frustrated and ruining matches just because youre losing maybe it isnt a good game for you. This just snowballs your problem, youre making it worse for yourself.

I would recommend to disable "Follow recoil" because it can be distracting. Play death-match to increase your reaction time and just stay cool and calm. Practice your cross-hair placement, try to hit 1 shots. There are some workshop maps that you can practice on to improve your target tracking. Use your microphone and call-out if the enemy team is rushing or if the bomb site is clear. Work with your teammates instead of getting frustrated. Remember every single guy (yes even the noobs) are trying their best at winning the game so don't get frustrated because games are meant to be fun. Hope this helps!

I cant quit this game. im not even in my 20s. I love this game, it just this issue. Counter-Strike is part of my life. its like asking an eastern european to stop smoke, he will never do.

everything you said, is a thing i tried. i know how to use comms, its also that i play only with people who knows those basic stuff. i use aim_botz as my crosshair placement map, then the normal maps also, my reaction time is good. im trying to allways work with teammates including every single person in my team. Im trying my ultimate for this game. im sacrifising every single second to get good at this game as much as possible. I practice alot every single day, but it doesnt work. i do also tactics that work on 100% all the time, but i always die and lose, no matter how i try, im gonna end up losing. this is an issue because even a coach cant help me at this point, and let me tell you, when i tried every single thing to improve me at the game, i meant it.

You explained earlier that you get frustrated with the game, which is it?

Yeah, but it happens after like 5 rounds after losing. sometimes i hype my team even if its already 0-7 like we gonna win. saying u gonna lose is like just getting off the computer mid-game and getting outside to buy groceries.

If you are playing constantly your skill will improve inevitable, focus on the matches not your playing progress and you will get better in time. Remember that not every match is a good match for everyone. Maybe your are just having a bad game. Don't compare your lowest point to your highest, you can't always be at the top.

Losing is a part of the game, if you get frustrated losing, you are frustrated with the game. I would suggest a different game.

I know i cant be always a toop, the thing is i can focus on match, as i mentioned some in the comments. im trying to do absolutly anything for anything, i never redo mistakes i did, if i did same mistakes, then ive probably wouldnt even create this thread in the first place

Other games are boring, im trying to put more effort to counter strike since its new kinda now. Rainbox six siege is old and unplayable due to the amount of hackers. Valorant isnt my style cuz of 0 realism. Fortnite is kinds good for me but still not fun anymore due to how old it got and without anything super interesting. If solution to this is taking a long break from FPS, then ill do it no matter what. Any solution coming to me from you guys is gonna be for me the priority.

Matchmaking but i feel FaceIT is easier to me, i can hit there better, people use comms there, which is normal unless you hear " ruskyi jest? ". and overall no cheaters. But its boring cuz you dont have rank system there. And my lifetime goal is atleast on one of the modes global elite. It can take me ages but wiling to sacrifise even 10% of my life
