Always die first

[GrizzGolf]

I have a question but it might be just me needing to work better on my aim. Everytime I get in a 1v1 situation I always lose. I don't understand why. I always feel like I aim on them first and burst but they always kill me. Is it me over thinking and getting jumpy when I see someone or is it me just playing terrible?

I think you should simply work more on your aim. Of course, sometimes it depends on luck a little. Just learn the basics :)

if u was standing in 1v1 situation .striath to the side fire off a few shots at him head hight then crouch and finish him off ..the practice being as you crouch he will miss some shots over your head while you deal the killer blow. good look oh and let ur team mates go in first lol

[cerdito]

make sure you have a good mouse too dont be playing with a wireless one

1v1... Game sense? If you just miss try and deathmatch, but if he comes out of nowhere you need to play more to gain game sense.

1. Stay cool
2. Don't make sound
3. Listen for footsteps, reload or scope sounds
4. If you see him before he sees you, repeat step 1. :D
5. Shoot!

Note that guns will have unreliable aim while moving at top speed, unless the enemy is very close by.

Damage is far greater to the head and is usually the only place worth aiming for. Trying safe shots to the torso tend to get you killed unless you know the enemy is already low on health. Or perhaps you catch them with their backs turned.

Spray patterns are different with every gun. Guns tend to have 1-3 accurate shot depending on the weapon and then the bullets will generally land above your crosshair and then move a little side-to-side. The exact way this happens is different for each weapon. To keep your shots in the same general area, you need to learn the pattern and then move your crosshair in the opposite direction from the pattern.

Or of course limit yourself to bursts (practically mandatory beyond close range).

Oh. And noise is very important. Be mindful of giving enemies hints. Footsteps give your location, picking the bomb will give your location, reloading or defusing might tell the enemy you're vulnerable. Remember it works both ways. In some cases you can even use sound to bait and deceive enemies in a few different ways. Finally if you hear flashbang being called, be mindful of where it is bound to land in advance.

Been there, done that. It can be quite infuriating, but has happened to us all. You just need to improve your aim/reflexes.
Playing deathmatch can help a bit. No respawn waits makes it an intensive way of putting your aim at test (Prepare to be killed a lot too ;) )
There's also quite a bit of map flow knowledge, where to hide, where people usually come from and such also plays it's role. Not knowing the maps usually means you don't know where your enemy can be.

Move slowly near walls by walking, but check corners at full speed. If there are two enemies fire a small burst and get to cover. IF he is one and firefight starts fire the first burst standing, then move slightly on right fire 1-2 bullets, crouch and burst again if he didnt die yet. Make sure when you crouch you finish him!

Basically this LOL. I've always got a little nervous as well when it comes down to a 1v1 situation. But if you follow those steps you'll at least have a good head start. You'd be surprised how many kills you can get just by listening to foot steps.

More importantly than being a super-awesome-aim-shooter-person is this:
