    I had played the entire BETA without using the auto-aim.....mainly because I had NO clue it was even there, but even if I did, I probably would have used it VERY rarely! Why? Cause I like the challenge, I want to get better at my own aim, and I see it as more of an 'easy' difficulty setting where I'm more of a 'Medium' to begin with, then go for the hard stuff. Just don't use it.

    And yes, there have been other discussions where others out there will use it and potentially ruin larger fights, but that's ultimately their own call. Sounds like you can't use it during PvP though which is essential to keep it from being an even more horrible option.

    It's only on in PVE. There are players who might be interested in the MMORPG aspect of the game but are not very adept at shooters. If you want to play without auto aim play shadow war like me.

    Omg auto aim is ridiculous for pve. So all these players will go into pvp and get owned omg its nit fair cause I can not figure out to play without it.

    Yea use the auto aim to excess and find pvp to be way to hard for you. Don't like pvp then hey its all good in the hood. Like both then hone your skills and play the game.

    I am sorry I don't want to offend anyone but really how does it effect pve? I am drunk so I can not make a good argument but really as I stated before its not in pvp so really it won't effect you. I do not use it as I have seen videos of it abused. I also stated in those videos it should not snap to the head until after maybe level 6 or 7 in that weapon class. After all think about it if you go and actually use a real gun like I do then aiming at the head or torso is easy after practice (spend a year or two at a gun range you will be able to aim easily quickly every time at the target your aiming at) thus in pve its fine though I would perfer it being part of the class leveling not immediate. As for pvp spend some time pvping and you prolly will be able to aim manually where you want. PVE side who cares it lets everyone regardless of skill to be able to participate and assist you in the missions, side quest or having fun leveling your skills. PVP well you are forced to learn some skill.

    In my opinion aim assist shouldn't be in console games period... but then half of the gamers out there would get wrecked. What the defiance devs need to do is find that fine line inbetween where aim assist helps but doesn't make it to easy.

    During closer combats i never use auto-aim, i simply cant be bothered with pushing extra buttons while i'm already firing where i want my bullets to land anyways. But for long range, sniper rifles, i do use the L1-button. Not because i'll miss, but because of the zoom-function. An auto-aimed shot will most likely hit the body, and not the head, so you have to 're-aim' a bit anyways.

    Why would you want to have them take off the auto-aim option? There already is a choice, by just NOT pushing the L1-button lol. Let it be, not having an auto-aim will only cause the online community do decrease drasticly.

    1. It's an MMO
    2. I'm sure there will be an option sooner or later for those who don't want aim assist

    They should have Aim assist option on/off in the options (many shooters have it) because "don't use L1" is ridiculous... Hipfire all day long then eh? I know L1 don't actually make your character aim through sight but still, it's a habit from other shooters, L1 -> more accurate shooting.

    If aim assist is tuned down (or turned off?) in PVP, why not have option to have it the same way in PVE?

    What I meant is don't alternately tap L1 R1, it won't re-aim if you don't keep tapping them.

    Aah ye, well they still should have on/off option. I personally don't hold L1 down that long as you move slower then, I keep moving fast around the battlefield.

    No Auto Aim in this game is it is in almost all games is on. They think that PS3 or console players in general are bad FPS/TPS players and need auto aim. All games have AA, COD/BF/Dust. There is also no option to turn it off on the PS3, I looked.

    Auto Aim is not bad, but the fact it AA to the head is bad. The other part of AA is the fact AA pulls to targets as they pan across the screen.

    Also those that are saying its not bad, obvious troll is obvious. Also in the PS3 beta, I was able to auto aim.

    Trion, CCP tried to have AA on same as you, they had a few patches to fix it but in the end the players voted it off. We will do the same soon, if it is present come 2nd.

    Soon as you press L1 it auto goes to the head of the closet target, so YES you do use AA.. Facepalm..

    Yes but if you dont release the l1 button and stay n aim it doesnt anymore so you only use autoaim the fist time you aim. Thats how it worked for me atleast

    Do you need more then that??? FML are you playing the game or is the game playing for you. You aim and then fire, if the first thing that happens is you get a headshot, then thats to much. Not saying a DS3 does not need a little bit of auto aim, but directly for the HEADSHOT is to much, snap auto aim to headshot is not fun. It may seem fun, but eventually you depend on it, what happens when you go to another game, games that don't do AA. You will suffer, as we say in Dust. HTFU, we want PC players to stop talking **** about how bad we are, players need to be taught gun game is not hard, its just practice.

    Agree with that. Theres no fun or skill in auto aim like that. Main reason why i just kkep l1 press while fighting. Not a big auto aim fan myself

    Yea they should most def, dumb that shizz down to the minimum. I don't see how people feel auto-aim is fun when, every time you get a headshot it's NOT YOU BRO!!! the computer is 99% of the credit, you're the 1% that pressed the button.. DONE

    Some games have the ability to turn aim assist off.

    Operation Flashpoint Red River had 3 different aim assist options you could enable/disable. They had "Snap-to-Target" which is what everyone is complaining about. Call of Duty's aim assist option only turns off the Snap to Target aim in SP/Zombies, Battlefield has the option to turn off aim assist completely, personally I hardly ever noticed a difference in BF though.

    IMO, other than the annoying Snap to Target aim, this game does Aim Assist well. When you "drag" your aim at enemies in PvE, the aim assist is there, but it's not very strong like what you'd see in CoD where aiming at multiple objects at once will be a complete nightmare. Also, the "aim assist box" seems to be about the same size as the enemy model, again it's not like CoD's case where it will be a complete nightmare to aim at something and not have the aim assist act more like an aim "resist".

    Let's just hope in the final game they have the option to turn Aim Assist off, or be able to disable it in a future patch.

    Complaining about Auto-Aim in incredibly selfish. Do you not realize that not everyone playing the game has the same hardware as you? That some people's computers might make it nearly impossible to aim with any semblance of accuracy without the aid of auto aim? So, stop being selfish and think of those who can't afford the money to pay for a computer that doesn't force them to have to use Auto-Aim.

    It shouldnt be removed but the option to toggle it on and off is fine. Im sure we have handicapped players that benefit from auto aim. Why make things harder for them then it already is?

    How 'bout you calm down and stop your BS. Aim assist doesn't affect you in major ways in PVE and not at all in PVP. Don't spam L1 and it's not a big deal. But then again, I guess I'm an obvious troll...

    But but but if there is aim assist I just can't get my killshot climax. Not a single friggin person respects your ability to shoot people in the head with a game controller you freaks...get over yourselves.

    This is the only site I know of that will necro topics that haven't seen the light of day for over a month consistently.

    On topic though.
    They really need to disable "sticky aim" when you turn aim assist off.

    I turned it off upon doing my first arkfall, kept aiming for the stupid skitter bite and ended up aiming at the skitters.... ALL THE TIME
