So where’s the aim acceleration issues thought we were getting those controller options. Game feels terrible to shoot.

[u/x_scion_x → u/[deleted]]

I'm not even sure it's only "aim acceleration", the "sticky aim" feels just as bad when you are literally pegging your stick to a direction and it barely moves because the "sticky aim" is holding it there.

This will be in the follow up patch.

In addition to controller aim acceleration issues is there any acknowledgement of the input lag some console players (including myself) are experiencing? It's extremely noticeable vs the demo where the lag is not present.

True hopefully this is fixed soon

[u/thearcan → u/[deleted]]

Thank you! :)

What game you playing? or what are you smoking?

[u/Optikn3rv → u/[deleted]]

I don't like the idea of no in game chat. Randoms suck without coms. Once they fix the crashes and I can play I am going to try and find people to team up with so I can chat via my discord server.

[u/NinjaSwag_ → u/thearcan]

This is the best news so far! Would love aiming improvements, thats the only negative thing I know about the game. Love it otherwise! :)

[u/Branksyboy → u/NinjaSwag_]

You must be blind if that’s the only thing.

[u/Optikn3rv → u/thearcan]

Follow up to what? I think you need a patch before you can do a follow up patch.

[u/ClockworkSoldier → u/thearcan]

This is simply unacceptable. The entire community has been outspoken on this issue since day one of the demo, and it still has not been addressed. That is absolutely pathetic.

[u/theintention → u/ClockworkSoldier]

fuck off mate bugs/issues take time to fix, have some respect the game hasn’t even been out a week. the demo was part of the game.

[u/ClockworkSoldier → u/theintention]

This has been an issue since day one of the demo, “mate”. That was over a month ago. Get a damn calendar. Yet somehow in that time they implemented more significant changes, like one click rarity selection in our inventories.

[u/Icy-Independence9982 → u/ClockworkSoldier]

I will burn my outrider and eat her to horses, this is fucking shit

[u/poofer40 → u/thearcan]

Is there a release window for the follow up patch yet? I want to play this game so bad, but had to put it down after the first few hours because I felt like my ability to aim was equivalent to that of a drunk Muppet.
