HEY CCP if you fix the AIM/Hit detector. you will acutally be fixing alot of other problems at the same time.

1) current TAC users will go back to the normal ARs
2) more people will spec into alternate weapons.

3) you may be able to cut down about 40% of the bitching and crying currently going on in the forum.

Hence you will be able to work on some of the other problems this game has.


not sure about the rest of you, but if i play an FPS i would really like to hit what i am aiming at

After playing a few games with HD resolutions disabled I've realized just how choppy things actually are now that I'm back to using 720p. It's horrible!

Sadly I can't really play at the lower resolution either, it's smooth but pretty much impossible to see what actually happens on the screen.

Also I still maintain this isn't *the* issue people have with aiming. The DS3 feels off for other reasons, and they too need to be fixed.

Hi,

Based on my limited knowledge of the networking code, we do have some mechanism to reduce the effect of latency, not sure exactly if that system covers the case you've mentioned.

I've forwarded the post to the programmer responsible for the networking code and we'll investigate.

Thanks for bringing this up.

I'm getting extreme frame rate problems even in regular Ambush battles.

Ditto, patch did little fix client lag issues, so far I've lagged out on Metropolis TWICE.

They didn't fix as much as they said they did. Tonight in aPC we still had somebody disc during the loading in process. It still takes time to throw nades and switch to S slot gun. The aiming is still a bit off you gotta shoot where the enemy is going and not where they are.

Hi XeroTheBigBoss,
We had a battle server patch at 11 GMT on 23 May.
In that patch we added an extra lag compensation considering the display lag which is expected to improve the aim issue.
Can you please try and tell if it makes improvement?

We did have in house playtest with 200-300ms environment and we didn't get the aim issue reproduced.
Is it possbile you record a video so we can identify what's wrong easily?

And some other questions:
How big is the ping from your ps3 to the battle server? Are you feeling the other enemies or yourself teleporting occasionally?
Are you having the aim issue for all weapons?
Do you fire at in front of or behind the enemy move direction to get actual shot?
When you get this problem, how far away is the enemy?
When you get this problem, is the frame rate high or low? Is the game running smoothly(player movement, particle effects, etc)?

Thanks!

How big is the ping from your ps3 to the battle server? I really don't know how to look at the ping from the PS3 to the server but my connection speed is PING 20ms Download Speed 31.31Mbps Upload speed 3.12Mbps

Are you having the aim issue for all weapons? The problem doesn't happen as much with guns that have rapid fire (SMG, HMG) least I have been told from a few corp mates. The main gun it seems is the Assault Rifle, MAYBE the Scrambler I wouldn't know though I never used it.

Do you fire at in front of or behind the enemy move direction to get actual shot? I have to fire ahead of whatever direction the enemy is sprinting, jumping, or strafing at. If he is strafing left to right there is no way to hit him because at that point it really is just spray and pray at that point, specially against Scouts. (pretty much the faster they are the harder they are to predict and find their REAL body)

When you get this problem, how far away is the enemy? It's really all ranges. Close, medium, and longer distance.

When you get this problem, is the frame rate high or low? When I get these problems (which is honestly every single game every single gun fight permanent problem) the game is running the same as it normally ever did. There is no crazy Frame Rate Memory issue or anything. Rarely I see people teleporting around but that is rare and definitely that particular person lagging.

I use a PS3 Controller I have tried moving my sensitivity to faster and slower to see if that would help it shoot like it did in Chromosome. In Chromosome the shooting worked almost flawless when you shot at a guy you would get a indicator that you were hitting him with the blue shield splatter (sometimes due to lag the hit detection wouldn't register dmg but that is not the case in Uprising) I have already made a thread in the General Discussion to ask for help from the community I will ask Corp mates to see if anybody can capture what I am talking about on video I know multiple people have this problem.

I know there are lot's of threads out there complaining about this but I think they are saying the aim is the issue. I realized that the aim is fine, the real problem is a frame rate issue. If the enemy is moving toward you or away from you in a straight line or sitting still you can aim directly onto them and score legit shots on the enemy. However IF the enemy is moving left to right rather they are strafing, jumping, or sprinting. You have to lead the enemy in the direction they are moving. I believe that is somewhat proof that the game just needs a little image refocusing. IMO basically what is happening is the game is moving faster than we can see. What is happening in the game is things are happening faster and due to frame rate issues we see them half a second to maybe even a full second late.


I am a controller player who currently uses 50-60 sensitivity. Not sure if there is any more information you need to try to zero in on this and have this fixed immediately. I have faith that you guys can zero in on this problem and fix it with haste. Don't let me down!


I have this thread also in the feedback/request thread but I think this is probably where it should be.




"Consider the past and you shall know the future."

no your a noob the issue is when you zoom in it magnify's your sensitivity per zoom on assault rifles. aim is effed.

That was rude. No real information is conveyed here, and if it is no clues were given to the said information's relevance.

Perhaps you could clarify and cut out the trash talk?

Looking for help with the settings people are finding usable right now? I'm using the ds3 and sensitivity on both x and y are set to 0 or 10 and I seem to do ok with aiming down the sights. I can stay on target however if someone comes from my side and a cqc battle starts I lose every time i can not for the life of me blindfire it is extremely twitchy even with 0 sensitivity. So my question is what settings are people using with problems similar to me? I even played around with the move deadzones and oddly enough it seemed to help....

Any help would be great thanks

There is no magical setting. Regardless of what some people say. The problem is not the sensitivity at all. It's that when you are shooting people their body is really off to the left or right more ahead of their body on the screen. It depends on the direction they are moving the more speed they have the more difficult it is to track the real body and hit it because you can't see it.

Lol what if it was something simple like screwed up Widescreen settings. Like your pixels are off just a bit.

I wish :|

Ok if thats the case why when I aim down sights I can take people down and see hit markers it seems that the further away a target is it would intensify the problem no?
