I Really Need Some Help

Here's the situation. I would like to get better at the Crucible. I'm not really talking about K/D ratio. I just want to actually be a viable asset to the team instead of another target for the enemy team. I'm a level 31 Warlock who can't seem to hit the broad side of a barn, much less a moving target. No matter what sensitivity I put my controller to, I seem to be unable to get a pin-point shot. Once the gun is firing (no matter the type) it seems like the gun is going to go EVERYWHERE ELSE but where I put it. If my try to make a slight adjustment to a target that strafes, my controller seems to scream "YOU WANTED TO GO AAAAALLLLL THE WAY TO THE LEFT RIGHT????!!!" My melee is TERRIBLE!! No, I'm serious. I have been killed by other warlocks with ONE HIT but I cannot EVER seem to do that to anyone, including lower level warlocks. My melee charges fairly quickly, so I'm not sure what it is. I really don't want to go for the tired tropes of "The game is cheating" or "The other team is cheating" so I'm going to assume it's me. Once in a while, I'll be on point with about 12 kills and 5 deaths. (for me this is fine). But most games, I have about 25 assist, 4 kills, 9 deaths. I use a range of weapons because nothing has worked consistantly for me since I've been playing. However I have an Ice Breaker, Suros Regime, Serpentine Rapier, Badger and a few other max leveled guns and they offer me no increase of kills. I would really like someone to give me some tips. Is there a way to improve my aim on the PS3? Besides the Thorn (which I don't have) what guns should I be using? I say the thorn because I have been killed today alone by a LOT of Thorns in about 3 shots. As a dad who works most of the time, I really don't want a game I paid 100 dollars for to just be another game that I have no chance at getting even half-way decent at. Thanks for any assist with this.

  • On stability: recoil is affected by the specific weapon you are using , the sight / barrel and the stability stat. Each gun has a different inherent base recoil patten. Most tend to kick up and slightly left or right exclusively. An example would be my Ghelion's Demise. That weapon kicks high up and very slightly left with each shot. I need to adjust right every 3-4 shots depending on distance to target A few weapons such as super good advice kick up and all over the place. It is random if it goes right or left and how much. Most oft these types of weapons are high rate if fire Autorifles and machine guns. Each sight or barrel ( first tree of perks) modify recoil in some way. The perks that say " more predictable recoil" means that it kicks straight up more often. Less recoil is less kick up. More recoil is more kick up. Greater target acquisition means it buffs the auto aim for that weapon. More on that later. Next is the stability stat on the weapon. The greater the stability the less recoil the weapon has. With automatic weapons you generally want all the stability you can get. Perfect Ballance counterbalance and Zen Moment are great perks to get more stability on your weapon. Each weapon has a set auto aim stat. This effects the degree and distance that your reticle will track an enemy. Currently it is impossible to turn off auto aim so generally the more the better. This can be a bad thing as auto aim targets the nearest enemy to you, so if one enemy walks in front of the guy you are shooting, your reticle will start tracking the nearer enemy automatically and leave the guy behind him alive to kill you.
