Snap/Auto-aim. Good or Bad?

[Zalm]

there left bumper it aims for you, kinda like cod aim down the sight thing

The left bumper is the special ability use. The ego power. Right bumper is grenade, left trigger is aim, right is shoot. There is no autoaim button. There is a feature when you use left trigger to aim, it will 'snap' to the closest target in your sights, so long as they are within a minimum distance to your sights.

If you're refering to my post at the beginning of this thread then I apologise that you disagree with me. My knickers are very much un-twisted presently. I was stating a personal taste. Auto-aim, I am aware, is present in many games but the question is - to what degree does it influence your ability to aim? By 20%, by 50%?

It has been mentioned that the auto-aim functionality can be disabled, that's fine, it still doesn't mean I have to like the fact that someone can run around critical hitting mutants in the face with a rocket launcher using auto-aim... it just feels cheap.

I don't think i was talking to you Grizz lol... i need to start replying with quotes from now on. I don't think the auto-aim is going to be a huge issue...right now er when i get to play the beta over the weekend..i'll be more concerned with server issues and how everything else runs

what degree its like 80% head shots
you didnt hear this from me til tomarrow

Thank you A s0t, but I was aware prior what the aim mechanics are in common shooters. My point in that post was around there being a dedicated auto-aim button, not iron-sights.

I hate the auto aim , I dont know how to turn it off.

I think they should just remove the auto-aim in console shooters in the future. I am actually rather tired of being told how good someone is on an "Xbox Controller or PS3 Controller" when they're really getting assistance from snap/auto-aim.

Also, it would get kinda silly if you're just snap-aiming at everything easily if that video is correct.

I think you mean "their." Stop playing video games until you learn basic English grammar.
