Has Something Changed With Aiming, Or Have I Gone Stupid?

It seems aiming has gotten worst, but has it always been like this?

• A target lock is easily lost.
• Maneuvering the ship easily loses target lock.
• When target lock is lost, reticle jumps to "random" ship.
• With no lock, reticle jumps to "random" ships.
• With lock, using targeting arrows, reticle jumps to "random" ships. (This seems to depend on location of ships during initial lock)

Incredibly frustrating. If nothing has changed any idea what I'm doing different. And I have tried with stick target both on and off.

 

If something has changed they would have said.
I agree that locking onto a target in the midst of other unfriendlys is quite difficult. I frequently turn the camera in a 180° or 360° for a quick look at my surroundings, so it's difficult for me to spot an enemy, lock on, lead the shot, shoot, and run away all without running into a STUPID mine (sorry...I hate mines).

 

no prob with my enforcer (so fast, i move, not the target)
no prob with my def (so slow, if i got a target will not loose it)
test it with a fixer... especially heal (that's horrible....)

 

With my Enforcer it's the worst. If I use OB and try to circle an unfriend I'll lose lock almost everytime and end up with a shot next to the ship.
If I'm trying to take down a speeder my target will go to another unfriend.

After watching a video with Bittersteel I started taking my time and trying to make each shot count. Then it went to hell.

 

For fixer I can attest that targeting is fine as long as u don't auto lock. Never auto lock lol

 

in option, i wipe all things for targeting, as enforcer i play in manual shoot, aiming one fire, go to another, just looking at green arrow choosing where the opponent will move and fire (sorry for bad english, it's lead shot?)

i agree, i've test it, never do it, it's bad ....

 

Yep If we were to make auto lock an option for fixers we would need a special option to lock onto our own team mates. That would be niceeee

 

There are still inconsistencies with the targeting system like you describe. It doesnt happen in every match but when it gets wonky it is very disorienting. Its worth having a look at i would say.

 

i wipe at start "turn the camera with move" (or something like this), that's horrible for me.

 

I agree i do feel there is weird in the aim

 

your flashing things is horrible for my eye and brain... i loose at least 1k neuron per second

 

I can't stop watching! It's amazing.

 

you'll be creationist/revisionist/nihilist/anarchist/capitalist/darwinist in a few minute... all will dance around you laughing ^^

 

Well I'm already a nihilistic Darwinist. The targeting in Battle Bay is mostly responsible for that nihilism.

 

lol
