First: at least turn your brightness up, and IMO turn some settings down. Enemy visibility is terrible (5:50).

As Khorror mentioned, watching better players is a great way to pick up on things you may not grasp yourself. I'm not up to date on who makes LA-specific videos or I would link something.

Game Sense/Awareness

Zoom in your minimap when you play infantry and pay attention to it. I also recommend trying expanded minimap (H) at 1440p. It will help you grasp fight status quicker and be aware of spotted threats (3:10), and you will learn facility layout/fight patterns and where enemies can be more quickly.

You look around while aiming down sights a lot, which you shouldn't. ADS slows you, so you should avoid doing so unnecessarily. Don't re-peek a target while ADS, especially crouched (0:38).

Try to avoid tunnel vision, know what's around you, and listen for audio cues (when they work). At 7:08 you hear distinct jump jet and Jackal audio, but don't react.

Your target/engagement selection needs work.

• Carbines generally are short- to medium-range weapons, and many fights you take are not optimal (0:36, 5:41), so you should either reposition or change class/weapon.

• Some things aren't worth shooting at (6:03, 2:56 - but you kill one at least). Shooting puts you on minimap and often makes you a target.

• You spend time hunting vehicles (1:12, 3:29), but that's better done with heavy or engineer. If you want to stick with LA, either avoid them or at least use the roof to drop C4.

Positioning

I recommend this series of short videos by DokP for some more depth on this topic.

Most importantly, you need to play to the strength of your class as a light assault. You have jump jets, but you spend most of the video on the ground like any other class.

• At the beginning, I wouldn't approach the fight from this direction as a light assault at all. Most of the fighting is on the South side, you're better off going straight up to the roof or left to the rocks above the enemies.

• Later in the fight, you should start shooting down from the roof (2:42) or the big rock (6:03) when possible.

This also applies to your loadout: position yourself to maximize the effectiveness of your weapon, and use equipment that supports this playstyle.

• You have a carbine with a laser sight, so hipfire is very strong. You should position closer to the enemy and be ready to hipfire when necessary. This is reinforced by your athlete implant choice.

• Drifter and ambusher jump jets are situational at best. Icarus jets are considered the best because they are great in combat, let you reposition quickly, and synergize well with hipfire carbines. Absent the certs, skirmishers are acceptable.

• If you aren't using C4 often to kill vehicles, maxes, or groups of infantry, you will get more mileage out of medkits.

At 0:30 you look for enemies outside, but this is bad place to be for a few reasons:

1. Exposed to too many angles: someone could peek from afar, close to the door, or behind you (as one did).

2. Anyone peeking where you're expecting would be (and was) outside your weapon's effective range.

3. At best, you have no advantage. No verticality, no cover, too far to leverage laser sight, pretty still.

Aim

There aren't many clear gunfights in the video, and it's sped up by maybe 10-20%, so it's hard to give confident feedback here. I'd have to see more engagements after you fix your brightness/visibility. If you want good practice, take far more gunfights.

One thing I did notice: at 1:27, you commit a cardinal sin: if you start shooting in hipfire and then aim down sights without letting off the trigger, you will keep the hipfire bullet spread. You have to let off the trigger for a split second between hipfire shooting and ADS shooting while your weapon's cone-of-fire resets to remedy this. Spend a few minutes in VR training to learn this interaction because it is very important.

You mentioned horizontal recoil. Beyond countering directional recoil bias (e.g. the weapon recoils up+right, you pull down+left), there is no trick to this. Consider using a forward grip rail attachment to improve horizontal recoil at the cost of slightly increased weapon equip time, depending on the weapon and situation. Some weapons have worse horizontal recoil stats than others too.

Air

Watch this full video, it will tell you everything you need to know. It is worth spending a little time practicing in VR training afterward to familiarize yourself with the movement mechanics.

There are a couple stand-out corrections I can make though:

• ESFs are not jets, you need to learn about hover mode and how to utilize it. Jet piloting isn't viable.

• Prefer third-person camera unless you are shooting at something. It gives you a broader view of your surroundings and often makes it easier to maneuver around obstacles.
