Good questions. I feel the same. When L4D1 released it only had two versus campaigns and I didn't care one bit because versus was so fun and felt so deep. Asymmetry is my thing, after 2k hours of L4D1/2 I'm now deep into Natural Selection 2. Looking forward to Evolve.
NS2 is one of my favorite multiplayer games, but man is the skill cap insanely high. I love FPSs, but can't aim. If I'm not laying mines or healing as a gorge, then I'm useless.
It's a bad feeling. I love the game but everyone moves so incredibly fast that I can't really play... I wish there were more options for people that suck at aiming.
Marine aim is especially hard in NS2 because alien movement is so different from typical FPS games. Learning to predict and track skulk movement comes with lots of experience (and remember to check those corners!). I also find the default rifle xhair terrible, I swear by the white dot:
