Aim assist is partially compensating for lag based hit detection problems, where a target isn't where they appear to be on your client. Try shooting with a mouse sometime...you'll be shocked at how often you'll get blue shield flashes and do no damage. But if I pick up the DS3 and aim assist kicks in, then I never miss. Hardly what I'd call balance. |

Vrain Matari wrote:Imo aiming in DUST is essentially exactly the same as it was before AA, nothing about the raw DS3 aiming mechanics has changed, it's just that the AA was slathered over the top of the same old aiming mechanics. Pehaps a parameter or two was fiddled with. I think DUST's DS3 aiming mechanics are implemented via Unreal 3's basic toolkit.
Again, imo those raw DS3 mechanics are not quality mechanics. Many of the reviews of DUST say the same thing. First thing i want to see Rouge address, actually.
Clearly you're forgetting the month or so after AA was introduced, where mouse aiming was actually a lot worse than it is now. AA has also been toned down several times since it was introduced. Initially it was very aggressive in taking control away from you, causing many people to complain that it was switching targets on them just before they killed people.
AA is actually much more reasonable now than it was, most of the time. It's still a little wonky on the combat and rail rifles but it isn't nearly as obnoxious as it used to be. I'd be totally fine with it remaining if TTK was increased so that people have time to react. That alone would remove the I Win Button aspect from AA. Also if they unfuck the mouse so that your shots hit the spot you're aiming at and your reticule doesn't slip and slide all over the place. The mouse is in such a bad state right now that for most weapons there's no point in trying to ADS. You're better off just hipfiring most of the time. Fixing those two things would probably kill most of the complaints about AA. |

I like that...maybe it could be part of a new electronics upgrade slot. You get AA, or squad shared passive scan data or other hud upgrades
Probably easier though to just put it in the high slot. Adding new slots would mean updating the CPU / PG for all suits which is a huge rabbit hole to go down. I especially like the idea of having to choose between max damage and better aiming. |
