I'm pretty sure I don't suck at any of my games. The games are all just flawed.

Now there's the answer I was looking for... :notworthy:

Redwolf

If I had a problem with that I'd be in deep trouble.

I suck at almost all games except thankfully TacOps, maybe the original Rainbox6 and in some cases in head-to-head FPS as a sharpshooter.

I am so bad at FPS's that I have killed enemies in the game by having them laugh themselves to death at me.  :buck2:

Shotgun for you then :)

I love aircraft and aircraft stats. DCS is the game for me. Buy most modules because aircraft are cool man. Then go through a tutorial. Press Lshift + D for full flaps. Got it. Only 325 more cryptic hot key combos to get into muscle memory.

That's why you should buy a Stream Deck. 32 lit mini-lcd screens that function as a pushbutton and can be configured (and labelled) any way you'd like.
I have whole copies of aircraft panels displayed on it so I don't have to remember what each hotkey is, but I can just push a button that has a visual representation of the switch in the cockpit I need. All old men NEED this device, I tell you! :coolsmiley:

^ That's sounds great might have to grab one off amazon.  Also been eyeing the capto gloves that can be used with or with out VR in Dcs for working the clickable cockpit functions with hand gestures instead of a mouse.

Yskonyn I demand to know how old you are immediately.

I took a look. I'm intrigued!

I am closer to 100 than I was 10 years ago.  L:-)

That's the best answer I've heard in the last 10 years.  O0
