Auto aim makes Sniper cannon even greater

So no more dogging a shot vertically, no more running X pattern so the enemy will miss because he need skill to land the shot. What about now? Minimum skill, it makes the sniper cannon, the easiest weapon to shoot even easier.

I got kill across the map from 3 shots so much i couldn't count. Who askes for auto aim? Who need it anyway? Less skill is required and now it is just a battle of who has the better gear. Is this what this game is going to be?

 

Dunno about you but i’m having a ball.

 

That is why u use unusual combos. Lol . I just run away hoping that the sniper player is so useless he would miss

 

i dropped from 4k to 3k2 now and there is no sign that i can get back to where i used to be, there are lots of game i died in the first 10-20 secs because of sniper shooting from across the map for 2k each. More and more updates favor shooters as well as camper, the new auto aim should be removed since there are less skill needed to play the game right now.

 

That's odd. They miss me all the time. If that weren't true I'd be dead in the first 30 seconds of every match since I almost always go out scouting and draw the initial enemy fire. I don't do anything fancy other than evade in a semi-random zig-zag pattern. When I get hit is when I'm going in some reasonably predictable path or someone gets lucky... .and that's with my crappy R10 overboost.

On my shooter using a sniper I dislike the new aiming thing intensely. I find I have to override it on every shot whereas I used to be able to trust the target lock for certain kinds of shots. I sincerely wish there was a toggle both for that and for whatever the heck is causing my target circle to jump around randomly the way it does.

 

Lol as a carronade user, one ovement of the target circle and my killing shots goes way off and I die myself

 

I'm not sure what you mean by "big health" but a sniper crit is going to be 1000/1700 as a rule of thumb. That's a pretty big bite in my eyes. But it doesn't change all that much in the grand scheme of things so long as I can limp out with 5hp. That's what bandages are for.

 

Projectile speed gets faster with Fully trained bhurts,Making sniper deadly...More higher the infamy more you will get ships with high sniper projectile speed,And also better lead shots

 

I hate to burst your bubble Cant Swim...

I think it's also very much attributable to this change:

Prior to update, I had about a 50% chance no damage rate when shooting speeders with explosive cannon. Other guns were better, flares around 90% to do damage on hit, but even with sniper cannon there were numerous times when the shot clearly connected but the damage did not count because of server lag.

 

I'm saying that speeders are taking more damage because the server side hit registration was improved. Not so much due to auto aim, but due to correcting both ship and projectile path prediction. On the client side, I've seen so many shots land, but because of server desync, the shot does not register.

Prior to update and particularly with slow moving projectiles, I could see that my projectile clearly hits the boat speeding by me, but no damage is registered. This has happened to me vs. all boats, but most notably and frequently with speeders.

My suggestion is that speeders are feeling the pain of all the shots that weren't previously being registered.

Perhaps I misread your previous comment. I was thinking you were attributing the new incoming damage to the vertical auto-aim buff.

 

For me, it seems to have been easier to dodge shots, personally.
The enforcer dance and the speeder zig zag seems to be harder to hit?
