Hi guys,

We are working on an update for the MKB sensitivity settings to try and address the issues that have been reported. Could I also ask that when you post feedback on the controls you can specify what control method you are using because is not always easy to distinguish if the problems being reported are for MKB, DS3 or for a third party controller. It would also be useful if you could let us know if you were also experiencing any performance issues with lag or poor frame rate at the same time.

Will keep you up to date.

Cheers

I second this. the PS3 Controller is HORRID! I feel like I am spraying and praying. If I use the right analog in any way while in aim the bullets go haywire all over the place.

I used to use 30-30 now using 50-50 because the speed I was using had some kind of lag delay or something that was really dumb now the aim is just super Kamehameha gimped.

How about giving us some kind of sights on automatic assault riffles so we can get a better aim.Sense there is such a small hit window nowIt shows them on there but we cant use them why??

Riiiiiiiight.... I've been playing Dust for nearly a year and have adapted to every change they have thrown our way. I co-founded a corporation that has been around for over 8 months and has not left the top 20 since the last leaderboard reset despite never topping 130 members, I ran infantry during the missile spam, I ran AV during the GOD TANK rampage, I ran standard AR's during the BREACH AR GOD MODE craze, and I dodged flying RE's during the RE Frisbee free-for-all, and you think I have no idea what I'm doing? Oh god, where have YOU been this whole time? Because I have no idea how you're still here if you were here any longer than I have been and can't even adapt to a little sensitivity change.

It's not adapt or die. It's play with your sensitivity until you can manage, then practice until you get better. You all need to stop crying about it and get to work practicing, because though it might get tweaked, it likely wont be changed much for a long time.

The HMG megathread seems to have gotten their attention...anything about aiming and range and getting stuck on small steps on walls and slow grenade throw response, and crap revive mechanics outside of HMGs seems to be ignored. But who knows...maybe they read them and simply do not respond.

Well i just ran a 25/3 after fiddling with my controls since Uprising Launch and its my best score ever since, before these were scores idd go damn i sucked....kinda of a score, but hey at least i can hit the side of a barn again!

You DO not want to know how i made it work but ill explain it anyways...

First of all you need a Mouse with separate Adjustable DPI axises "120 or so $"

Set X axis at 2600 DPI and Y axis at 3000 DPI or the otherway around, This made me be able to aim in a circle pattern again.

Then you plug both Mouse & Keyboard into an Eagle Eye KB/M to DS3 converter "90$ or so +-)

Adjust ingame DS3 X & Y axises to 60%.

Then set all the Look Deadzones to 24, 12, 17, 11, 25 and Eagle Sensitivity X axis to 1, Y axis to 2, angle correction to 10, rotation speed is left at 127.
Then set all the Scope mode to exactly the same.

Once ingame you don't HIPFIRE ever! Theres ontop of the aiming seems to be something very screwy about hit detection or where your bullets go when firing from the hip...always ADS and track the opponent even in cqc and kill it with ADS Fire.

Though it is nearly impossible to play as to turn around i need 3 times the full distance of my mousemat and its a steel series large mat.

But at least the ADS targetting is 100 % consistent with these settings, no acceleration!! is left over at only 210$ value...

+1 for passion!

I hope it doesn't go unnoticed... For all of us.

so which dev though kb/m was op and nerfed it without thinking? how does this really get into deployment code?

So the entire problem is that the game thinks the mouse is an analog stick?

Are you serious?

Wow.... what a blunder.

Its really easy to spot, when you go into your equipment selection for a nano hive, your mouse selection behaves really jitterish as if it can only do certain angles but not all of them as before on the chromosone build where the wheel was really smooth all around.

The Eagle Eye converter that i have been fiddling with has the exact same issue because it translates mouse movement to analog stick movement and it since it uses angle correction to predict a straight line of movement you cannot go from point A to B in a circular motion because it converts it to a linear set of motion.

The main diffrence however is the Eagle eye allows for 10 Seperate Deadzones to be set, Adjustable Angle correction but if you adjust this too much you will get see all your micro movements instead of going from left to right in a straight line you get a zig zag motion up & down while going left & right. Angle correction deals with those micro movements.

Then you also have sensetivity adjustments for both axises and the same for being scoped in.

If you think about it since Y & X axis sens is off i need to run aprox a 20% - 30% difrence to get a circle pattern, witch most peoples mice cant do btw, but ingame DS3 users can set diffrent sensetivities for both axis.

In dust all you get is a Sensetivity slider and thats as far as your tweaking goes.

Then there are 1001 diffrent Mouses, all with diffrent DPI, Polling & whatsnot settings.

Theres however only 1 type of DS3, and any knockoff's are build to specification.

Good enough points. I think you've done your research well and I agree.

Someone at CCP made an absolutely insane decision over this.

I think we should space them.
