Getting Past The Learning Curve in Games
With competitive gaming growing and the e-sports scene getting bigger every day it is often hard to figure out what separates those players from the average player. This is not hard to answer. Everything that people work towards mastering has learning curves. Ever game is essentially a series of new problems. This key combination for the last move is a little longer than the last and this motion requires more precise timing to work.
So what solves those problems? Repetition,more time spent practicing, working through what is new and redoing what is old until it feels like something that could be done while sleeping, often makes a win or a loss in a competitive game. Whether it is Dota 2, Starcraft 2 or League of Legends, familiarity with maps, moves and equipment is essential. However even for those who are best real gains are often made in spurts where something just clicks. This could be a friend’s explanation finally making sense or an articles words no longer just being words but functional concepts. At another point improvement can seem un-achievable and things come to a plateau.
This does not just apply to multi-player strategy game though. It is easy to put down a game out of frustration because it is “too difficult”. Fleshing out mechanics can often be the hardest part of a game. Game tutorials can help guide players through the earliest stages but if they carried on throughout the whole game they would take away from the sense of achievement that something was actually overcome. Player prior gaming experience can make a big difference too and sometimes it is just better to consult sources that state how hard a learning curve is before purchasing a game, since there are people who want something more challenging than some others. However, the best plan of attack is to always approach new problems with a level head and as calmly and logically as possible, examining things at different angles until finding one that works best.
