Aim is getting worse in Multiplayer, anyone else?

I've noticed over the last month my aim seems to be getting worse in Multiplayer games, both in Battlefield 2042 and Warzone. Yes there are a few people I've come across that are cheating ( I've been told they've been banned via in game Warzone ), however I'm getting more and more raged in games by my lack of aim and constant death. There's been multiple times now I've aimed at someone took the shot only for them to beam me instantly even when they have their backs to me! Yes I've missed completely at times too.

Most of the time I can be found at the top of the match with a high K/D and a good score, or in Warzone atleast 6-10 kills but now I'm struggling. Either I've got worse or I'm always being put into sweaty lobbies

Anyone else feel their aim has got worse over time?

I've tried adjusting mouse sensitivity for overshoot but meh

EDIT : Another thing which is odd, I seem to do better on the slower frame rate computer the GTX 980 than I do the over 100 frame rate system RTX

My remedy for being bad at online FPS is I just stopped playing them, I'd rather just relax. If it's not fun there's no point, take a break. I've started playing Overwatch which can be chaotic but it's less about aim and more about strategy and the style & format is more relaxing that Warzone or Battlefield.

That's the thing I was never "BAD" at Online FPS up until the last couple of months!

Have you always jumped between games?If I play another FPS even a single player game and then go back to PUBG online my aim is all over the place. I just get used to the other games sensitivity and recoil etc

Yep

- At night I sometimes switch between Battlefield 2042 and Warzone depending on who's playing.

Things have really helped since uninstalling Geforce Experience and lowering my DPI on my mouse

Much better, thanks all!

So for me it was

AGE
Geforce Experience (Now Uninstalled)
Mouse Dpi

What DPI you on now? What did you use before?

1000 Dpi

Originally on around 1300, was super snappy in Windows though

Though, that doesn't fully relate to whether you're slow or not. That could be down to how fast your display updates. IPS, VA, TN. Click latencies and debounce. You can only react to how fast your display updates and the rest of the hardware in the chain. If everyone was on the same low latency hardware as a test, then you could see the human response aspect.

Will test it on the RTX/144hz/1440p monitor and compare

980 GTX 1080p 144hz i7 4790K : 241ms

2070 RTX Super 1440p 144hz I9 10900k Reaction Time 185ms

So yes, different systems = quicker response time
