    That’s funny - MW2, BF: Bad Company 2 and BF3 were the last competitive shooters I really enjoyed, too. I had a good time playing Apex Legends for a while, but not because I was good at it… more because I could have fun playing my own version of The Running Man until someone inevitably found me. I was that wimp that would drop in some remote corner of the map and spend as much time as possible avoiding combat.

      I’m 53… and that was how I started playing.

      It took me two years and a bit of fiddling with the controller setting to “git gud”. My K/D ratio for the first couple of years was 0.11 (prolly lower but that was the lowest it would show.) and I eventually got it up to 0.71 (approx 1.1 for the last few seasons).

      Im amazed at how many people play these games without a headset. I can usually hear them before I see them.
