I'm terrible in a gunfight in Rust, and I'd practice more if resources weren't so scarce on populated servers but it takes me a long time to gather enough resources when the people on my server are 90% KOS-ers. (could go to a lower pop server, gather resources, craft a gun, then spend a half hour looking for someone to fight, only to get my ass kicked, but that's basically an inverse reflection of my current methods but with the same result) I'm wondering if there's a game that plays similarly to rust, in terms of gunplay and where guns are more easily accessible, that I could practice on? Someone recommended Counter Strike, but wouldn't elaborate on which one. Any tips? (Braces for trollolol n00b comments and presses submit)
Best thing to do is practice practice practice. While joining servers that give you starter kits does help with the initial feel towards the weapons, your real opponent will be the adrenaline. That heart pounding feeling you get when you have a lot of resources on you and are caught in a firefight. This feeling causes shakiness and reduces your aim. Practicing breathing routines and remembering that all that is lost can be regained can help reduce the fear/anxiety caused by such situations.
