    Whenever I aim and steer at the same time my controls jump all over as you can see in the video. This is a mild to example, it gets much more severe.

    No one else had this issue? Any devs around for some advice?

    Hang on for a bit. This thread (probably due to the link you added) is not available to everyone else, except mods and MVPs. Other than that, have you tried "sticky controls" from settings?

    I have sticky controls off. You can see from the video, if you have access to it, that the left control jerks and jumps when I'm moving around which is obviously either a bug with the game or an issue with my screen.

    I'm not sure how to add a video in an 'allowed' way so that everyone can see this post.

    I actually use my target lock very often, it's probably my most spammed button. That helps. Otherwise:

    The targeting does sometimes rely on your ship oruientation, I would suggest turning both your ship and turret at the same time.

    I had this similar issue as well since yesterday. I didn't change my device.

    I see people commenting about the targeting system, and while I appreciate that you guys are taking the time out to offer advice, I'm quite aware of the nuances of the game's mechanics. That actual issue which is mildly illustrated in the attached video is that the left controller (the the movement stick) vibrates back and forth, which you can see in the video if you look closely. The problem is often considerably worse than the example and actually stops me turning my ship at all. It's beginning to make the game unplayable.

    I have tried other games with a similar control structure to eliminate my phone as the issue and I'm yet to experience the same problem with a other game.

    So should I just create a support ticket then?

    I've always had that. But it's only jerking when aiming for some reason.

    Yes, exactly! Only when moving and aiming simultaneously. What device/OS are you using? It could be an android problem.

    I'm using a pixel 2, that could well be it.

    This is not a Battle Bay problem exclusively, it might be the phone. I've moved on, after the 2.9 update, to Shadowgun Legends and it has the same jerky response randomly.

    Android P is slightly better, There's a Xposed module fix for rooted phones.
