Feeling inadequate at times

I had a long day of carnage yesterday on COD4. I came to the realization last night, @ 2am there's that schedule thing again, that I usually drag the teams I play on down. when the stats post after a match, mine are, for a lack of a different word, pathetic at best. The fact that no one on my teams, 2o2pers, ever says anything i wonderful. But I know that I am inadequate, as a teammate and in general over all. Normally, I try not to let this get to me, but for some reason last night it just hit me like a ton of bricks. By the time the night was over, I was having trouble hitting the broadside of a barn, shooting fish in a barrel, etc. I appreciate the fact that the people in my party didn't say anything about my lack of skills, but that doesn't deminish the fact that they don't exist. I hear my teammates calling out buildings and check points, at which point I am lost, although this is getting better over time. Maybe it was just a bad day, or maybe the skills are actually lacking.....either way the feeling of inadeqacy really hit home last night...with a hangover till this morning. Being the trooper I am, I will get back on that horse today.......it's a new day...maybe my hand-eye coordination will be better today....see y'all in the matches.

We've all been there and some (me) are still there, don't feel bad. That's what this place is for. Provide a safe place to learn and have fun.

it sucks being repeatedly at the bottom of the score board (i know), but at least playing with other 2o2pers means you can still have fun playing regardless of skill level. and the more you play, the better you get, practice makes perfect.

I know the feeling. The key is to find some friends that suck worse than you do so instead of being on the very bottom you are only 2nd or 3rd from the bottom. Really helps the ego. :)

Hang in there. You don't say what level you are or how much time you've been playing MP for COD4. What I can tell you is that the first 12 hours of online play were painful for me. But once I learned the maps and the spawns and I started to understand map control and lanes of fire, I started doing much much better and the game became much more enjoyable. Also I stopped using different weapons and now just stick with the RPD.
