The ultimate gamer guide: How to play better in no time

Internet gaming can be intimidating and sometimes confusing – even frustrating. The joy of playing online is known to those who do it on a regular basis, but at the end of the day, if you don’t game often then you’ll struggle to really get to grips with the controls and more complex workings of the game. We’ve put together some tips to help you get better.

Have fun

You might be surprised at how many gamers forget rule number one! The point of playing is to try something new and forget about the real world. Games are not supposed to be stressful; in fact, they are supposed to relieve stress. For this reason alone, make sure you take a deep breath and just relax a little.

Play your game

Online gaming is normally associated with first-person shooters, but many popular entries out there are based on puzzle-solving or even old-school board games. If you and your friends enjoy this kind of entertainment, go for it! You don’t need to focus on the biggest games on offer, in fact, you might not have as much fun if you do.

Prepare yourself

Whatever you choose to play, remember that there is no greater sin than going online and not having a clue what you’re about to do. This is especially important with MMORPG games and even FPS games: you need to know a little about the game before you choose to enter the world, particularly if you plan on playing online. Luckily there are great resources available for you to explore, and when you do, you’ll find maximise the fun.

Bring friends

One of the most enjoyable ways to play online games is with friends, and the memories will last a lifetime. Gaming online is also a great way for you to meet new people. The more fun you have, the more buddies you’ll attract.

Start slow

Although it depends on the game, quite a lot of the time there are various levels of player proficiency involved. Less experienced gamers should stick to the tutorial and try to avoid seeking out tough competition. As a newcomer, you need to choose a level that matches your skillset and avoid anything too advanced.

Of course, there’s lots more you can do to make the most of your gaming experience, but if you follow these tips you’ll soon find you’re able to have an amazing time without worrying about a thing. Being new to gaming can feel daunting, but you’ll be on your way in no time!
