Im not trying to complain about COD or anything but ive been playing a few different games recently and it seems games have gone from the skillful wins to who has a quicker reaction?

Do a barrel roll!
Both matter...I think you're right that it's leaning toward who shoots quicker but I think both should matter.

You need to take into account a lot more than reactions to win a game.
Skill can be broken down a lot more than reactions.
E.g.
You need teamwork, you need to be able to read the enemy, predict directions etc.

Those are all skills you need in order to win.
Yeah you may be able to turn on a guy quickly but there are more important aspects you need to take into consideration to win imo.

I think who shoots quicker. But there is some times when a person is shooting at me and my quick reaction kills him...

True

I wished i played old games like quake or doom where it was more "just trying to hit" the enemy more than who does it faster.

To be honest, my internet connection effects how well I play, my connection speed is hopeless at peak times, and I always seem to play bad during those times, but early morning and late at night and I play well. That might just be me though.

depends on the people you play, when you play good people you need reaction obviously, but in most pubs, i can watch tv or be on the phone while maintaining a 3-4 kd lol

It should be both, which is one of the things Black Ops did better than any other CoD. Since it took a bit longer to kill, it took both skill and reaction speed equally, whereas in Mw3, where you die almost instantly, it seems to lean towards reaction time. Don't get me wrong, it still takes skill, but I just think you die a bit too fast in this game.

I am a very good player, yes I know saying that I am a good player isn't that good but anyways.. Sometimes I shoot someone and the player still kills me although I shot first.. I have a very good aiming and no I don't spray all my bullets around..
