I’ve played Halo for over 7 years since I started playing Halo 3. Now I have Halo 5 and it’s already the worst experience I’ve ever had in all of video games. I’m just horrendously bad at this game for all the time I put in. First off, I can’t aim. I’ve altered my sensitivity so many times when I’m doing poorly, but no matter what settings I adjust, I just can’t get my shots right. I could get the first shot on my enemy, but it doesn’t matter because they’ll still kill me. I lose nearly 90% of all my 1v1s. I don’t challenge anyone unless I have to, but when I do I end up dead no matter what position I’m in. I learned the maps and the best positions for each map, but I still lose the most absurd battles. I know everyone messes up, but when you’re constantly losing matches, it begins to depress you. I practice very hard for hours every day. I practice strafing. jumps, grenades, and movement, but no matter how much work I put in, I still consistently lose. There were games where I’ve done so bad that players have literally told me to quit Halo and kill myself. I naturally want to argue against the statement, but with my skills, they’re most likely right. I literally practice over 8 hours a day on this game and I don’t improve. I’m stuck in the same rank and I consistently lose to players of all skill levels. Some matches are so bad that ppl quit out and when i quit, I get banned for three days, so I’m forced to stay and waste my time getting killed and getting a score of 3-32 to avoid bans. I’m a huge Halo fan and I want to improve. I look for all the online tips available and study them meticulously. I implement them into my gameplay only to figure out that none of that stuff matters. It gets more depressing each day. I don’t think I’m cut out for Arena. I’m better off just sticking to Warzone indefinitely, or just giving up on Halo in general. Nothing I do seems to change anything, so it’s probably a sign that I should just concede and play Warzone like the noob I am. Nevertheless, I’m welcome to accept any tips for aiming for other tactics. I’m sure I’ve heard it before, but I’ll still appreciate it.
I play Warzone a lot because I like it, it isn’t necessarily a noob gamemode. You’ll probably get better within time, also, don’t listen to any of the people that message you stupid things like that. I hope your practice helps you, maybe you’re just having really bad luck.

I know Warzone Isn’t a noob game mode and I do like it. My luck is more than bad, it’s non-existent. Then I realized that it’s not luck or coincidence. It’s just that I’m not good. Like I said I’ve played for years.
I love how Warzone is considered a “Noob” mode lol
My best games I’ve had in Arena
You can carry a team in arena
Good luck carrying a Warzone team…

Well your KD isn’t too bad, actually I’d consider it quite good. Are you just not performing that well recently or is it something else?

I don’t know. My performance is just really bad. Often I just can’t shoot or position myself. It’s really something that bothers me since I’ve been playing for so long
Don’t be so hard on yourself OP your k/d ratio isn’t below 1.0 and your win loss is around 50 % which is normal. You get lots of people talking on here like halo gods with a worse service record than yours . I’ve been that guy as well that just can’t seem to kill anything before he dies 7 times in a row. It sucks but keep on it and you’ll “Git Gud”

A lot of ppl tell me to just keep playing the game and I’ll eventually improve. But I think I’m just past that point now because I’ve been playing Halo for 7 years, so I don’t think I should suck this bad.
OP, don’t listen to those type of people. That kind of negativity is unnecessary.
I’ve become a 90% Warzone player, partly because of REQs, but partly because I just can’t hang in the arena gamemodes. Nothing wrong with playing Warzone primarily. Lots of skill involved. Different from arena skills, but still skills.
P.S., I usually am always on Warzone (I’m in battle of Noctus as I type) so if you need a friend to play with, count me in!

You see, I was gonna say I know how you feel. I’m not that good, but as long as I float around gold or platinum, I feel comfortable.
But then I looked at your profile. A 1.147 K/D overall?!? ONYX IN FFA?!?!?!?NEVER HAVING ANYTHING BELOW A 1.0 K/D IN ANY GAMEMODE YOU’VE PLAYED?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? I was gonna give you sympathy, because I hate to see people lose their love for Halo, because I can’t imagine how I’ll ever lose mine. But I’ve gotta call you out, man. You have NO CLUE what it is like to suck at this game. I’m sorry if you are dissapointed with your performance. But you are actually FAR above average.
I have a friend who is a BRONZE in half of her arena playlists. We had to WORK to move her up to silver. I WORK MY -Yoink- OFF to get to platinum. You know, the one two ranks below your rank.
C’mon man. We can see your stats.
P.S.: If people are actually saying that to you, I’m sorry. I play Counter Strike, so I know how hostile people can be in video games. That shouldn’t happen to anyone, regardless of what I said to you up above.
EDIT: I’ve looked closer at your recent games, and I see that I was kinda wrong. You have had some struggles in FFA. I could only recommend: maybe play crappier in your placement matches. Then, work on your skills on the way through Plat, if you make it through. I’m still not sure you know what it actually means to be bad at this game, but you may have been misplaced. It had seemed like they had fixed the ranking system.

Well I think that’s because Halo 5 plays so different to the past Halos. This guy has some great tips for Halo 5.

Yeah Luke has some good tips that I’ve already followed. But even with that, I’m still falling behind.

Do you play Warzone Assault a lot? I need some people to play WA with.
Checks OPs stats
Cries in a corner
Just to be clear I don’t think Warzone is for noobs. I’m just paraphrasing someone who messaged me and told me to quit Halo as an alternate decision.

Hmm, I don’t know then. I guess practice is your best bet right now, maybe switching your control scheme may help. I don’t know how it could help but it may be slightly useful.

I barely play WA but I’m down to play it.

Lol, I call myself bad all the time, yet I know I’m not bad.

Alright I’ll add you, maybe I can help you improve too, practicing with someone else is definitely helpful.

Thanks a lot. I’ve downloaded Octagon Maps, but the problem is I don’t know anyone personally who plays Halo, so it’s just me playing alone in custom games
