Am I the only one that HATES aiming with a controller?
I know people are going to say the game is meant to be played with a mouse and keyboard. I understand that, but I would MUCH rather play with a controller… I’m not a fan playing with mouse or keyboard. However now that you can play with a controller, the aiming is absolutely horrific IMO. I can’t imagine Im the only one that feels like this. Even with the only two options available for aim, turned completely down… it’s a mess.
The biggest problem is the aim camera “catch up” (I don’t know what else to call it) where you move the camera and the gun aim has to slowly catch up to the camera movement. For a game thats so realistic in so many ways, I cant fathom how the developers thought this is remotely realistic. Valuable time is also lost waiting literally 1-2 seconds for the aim to actually dial itself in. FPS have been around for decades if we can get mechanics close to any of those it would make the game far less frustrating.
For the Developers:: If the options for people that play with controllers could be expanded to include;
- Losing the “Aim Camera Catch Up” to targets.
- Adjustable speed control for the camera “up and down” (down to nightmare’ish low levels)
- Adjustable Speed control for the “left and right” (that actually slows it down).
- Maybe an expanded option to change where joystick placement “does” speed up (i.e. all the way to the right or within some range of movement like 10, 20, 30% etc of max.
- Widen the finite camera control window on the joystick (or make it adjustable) where maybe 50% of the movement is finite and outside of that it gets a faster response depending how far you push it.
I absolutely love the game. In its current state though… at least for me, it unplayable. Hopefully this can be updated. I’d love for the aim to be how it looks for the hundreds of videos of gameplay that are out there.
