It was failing WITHOUT aim assist. People would try the game, not be able to kill anything and uninstall. If No AA was so f*cking fantastic, where were all of the HARDCORE FPS console fans out there? A: they were probably all playing DUST (and there's only a few thousand of you). That's NOT A LARGE ENOUGH PLAYERBASE to keep DUST going.
Quote:I am sorry but no. Aim assist (if there even is any at all) should be very very small.....it should never be enough to actually move your cross hair. I can go with lowering your sensitivity slightly when your own target to help you maintain the target but that is the most it should ever be...if the target moves you should have to be forced to follow your target to hit them effectively. Its pathetic the number of likes this person rcved from his post. Whatever happened to the "hardcore" universe of Eve? I have never played a more carebear FPS in my life. This is pretty soon they will just give everyone jet packs that shoot rainbow out of your butts so that you can actually play carebear episodes online.
This is not a competitive FPS......yes its not anymore because scrubs like you and CCP have destroyed it. CCPs original vision was that it would become a major hardcore FPS competitive shooter. Yea they lost that once badly. Why even call it an FPS anymore? Must make it turn based already so that all the Eve kiddies can enjoy their FPS game that doesnt require any handeye coordination skills.
Spastically strafing in bizarre directions while being able to hit other people doing the same isn't fun gameplay to a lot of people. It's f*cking stupid to put it bluntly, and nothing like real combat. You can think this is hardcore, or the pinnacle of FPS gameplay, but when one dude can run into a squad of 4 people and take them all down because the controls are such that it's too hard for everyone to hit him, then the game is broken. This would never happen in real life, being "hardcore" to me means having engagements play out more like they would if DUST were real: I.e. no one would ever charge into a group of 4 guys, and if they did they would be shot and killed (even if he was wearing a high-end suit).
