Aiming is defo not right.
I find that I'm constantly over compensating.
Example - I have someone in my sights. Pop a few bullets off. They quite rightly, move. I move joystick to direction they're running. Im not catching hm up in my crosshairs. I push a tad harder on joystick. Woomph, I've now shot my crosshairs right past the dude.
It's almost like there's no middle ground on the joystick. I can either move really slowly or really fast.
Best game I ever played that had awesome aiming mechanics was BattleField 2. It just simply worked, and I wished Dust would too.

i have the same problem, i don't want to turn down the sensitivity because then it will cause my turning to slow down. mouse controls are really the only way to go, just make sure you have the controller nearby if you hop into a turret because mouse controls are god awful.
If I have to start using a mouse to aim on a PS3 to play a FPS, I really will be thinking that something isn't right. The whole reason I bought a Console was because it neatly fits under my TV. If ever I want to play, I grab the controller, plump my ass on the sofa, and off I go. If I have to add a mouse and flat surface to my playing environment, I'd rather not play.
I love the concept of this game, but CCP seen to be forgetting the fundamentals of console gaming. Or perhaps they are exactly where they want to be and I'm not the kind of customer they're targeting. |
