 Are you sure you have been playing in UV mode??????
 How often do you use IDDQD ?
 
I'm not a hotshot player but I think it takes some little strategy
to survive the upper levels in -skill 4.  I don't care how good
you are at shooting and ducking, without a plan, you aren't going
to survive.
 
I never played the deathmatch.  Maybe that's a Shootem up no
strategy game, but regular play definitely takes a lot of strategy.
