I agree, even as someone who has mostly got the hang of the game. There's been a few points where I just felt like nothing was working and the few metrics I have to measure performance (damage and kills) fluctuated so wildly between rounds that I couldn't reliably measure my own performance. Even now I go 13 kills once round and then 1 kill the next without much change in playstyle.

I only had one breakthrough moment when playing and that was against bots, where I realized that holding your shots and focusing fire on weak or damaged spots yielded significantly easier kills than just firing at will. Everything else was a slow grind with many mechanics I'm still not sure of.
