Sleepy Skill

Ok yes, the title is pretty lame. I’m tired, that’s my excuse. Anyway, I’ve always noticed that if I’m playing Halo, or really any FPS for that matter, my aim is significantly better when I’m in the early hours of the morning without any sleep. That second wind that you get at around 2-4 a.m. while pulling an all-nighter, that’s what I mean. I don’t know why that is, and I’m wondering how many others experience the same thing. I’ll add that this has nothing to do with being warmed-up, for me at least. It can be my first game, as long as I’m in that second wind state, my aim is just a lot better than normal. I mean very very noticeably better.

I’ve noticed that too, its odd, but I won’t complain about it. I’ll just keep fighting and winnin’ like a Spartan should!

Some games are better than others.

  • probably just less inclined to get twitchy with the stick when you’re in that state… Same as after the first couple of drinks when playing halo or billiards :grin:

Sometimes when your awak and more focused you make loads of mistakes from over thinking things, when your tierd and cba, you don’t even feel rage from dying you just carry on cause YOLO. I personally get less twitchy, i have a serious issue when i’m in an intense one v one that i squeez my controller causing me to press the R3 stick and do some daft move stopping me from shooting, it also makes my aim more tense, but when i’m tierd i’m flowing like a boss! Love late night warzone seshions with my friends 4 in the morning on a 20 game win streak? hell yeah!

It’s because your brain is just sharper after the day. You can do things without thinking so much. I’ve noticed this with a few games I’ve played after a long day of work.
