Sorry for this, silly question! First of many I'm sure! Just started playing this on Xbox 360 and when auto aim isn't allowed I really struggle to actually hit anyone! And they hit and kill me in ONE shot it takes me about 50, only 1 will hit them and still doesn't affect their health - (by which point they've got me anyway!) Do lower levels have lower health? And is there a place I can practise aiming and firing? When I hear someone shoot at me, I just start firing wildly (into the wall next to me usually) I need some tips and advice! Thanks!

the higher level you are in online, the better aim you have and stuff like that

the best advice is to make sure auto aim is on in the lobby, if your the host change it, also it just depends, some ppl hate auto aim, some love it, some hate it, i go for auto aim myself, cause i suck at deathmatch games

I don't remember having that much of a problem aiming but it's been a little while. Make sure when you do lock onto someone , pull the crosshair very slightly up. A few shots to the head will down someone a LOT faster than a round in the chest. Doing that alone helped me survive a lot longer.

thanks for all advice. If auto-aim is off in the lobby is there anything I can do? I tried exiting and an re-opening but it takes to the same game usually. Can you swap rooms or anything?
