Everto ut planto trophies Sangheili

I'm an older player...I think...I'm 54. My god damn right thumb seems at times to have a very small mind of it's own and doesn't seem to do what I want it to. It strays wildly off target and then my damn right index finger pulls the damn trigger. I'm seemingly being held hostage to poor gameplay more or less by 2 damn digits. I do so so at Firefight Matchmaking but part of me says that's for 8 year olds. I really wanna get better at straight up multiplayer Team Slayer, BTB, etc. but my right thumb seems to have other ideas.
Does anybody have any constructive ideas that might help my right thumb? If you just wanna flame that's cool just make it good and hot.

I don't know but, if it's a problem with your thumb, did you ever think of getting it checked?

Practice in octagon with someone better than you but not someone who will destroy you. Play some gruntpoc to get your headshots down.

Want a cool clan? Join FRAG!

Want a war sim? The best war sim in Halo, Forerunner Conflict.

Try turning your look sensitivity down to 2 or 3 and use the DMR as much as you can. Your aim should improve over time. If your thumb's still the problem I'd suggest getting that checked out.

So basically... Waypoint is pro-vanilla?

Waypoint isn't pro-anything so much as they're just anti-intelligence.

I have a problem similar to yours, my fingers hate to cooperate with me for some reason. What I do to help this is make sure the room I'm playing in is somewhat warm so my hands don't get cold, and crack my knuckles/flex my fingers around a little before I actually play.
