Can Auto Aim be disabled? MyColdMan?

[AssassinsMassCasue]

The title says it all. I don't really like atuo-aim much, so I was just wondering if there will be an option to completely disable/toggle the feature? Thanks MyColdMan, or anyone else that has confirmed info from him on the matter.

[ColeScheffler]

I'd guess so. In every game I've ever played that had auto-aim, there was an option to disable it.

He mentioned it in an interview podcast, but I don't remember exactly, but I believe he said you could.

No it's there. If u look u can see Rico's arm twitching when he's aiming and shooting at something close. It's not a lock on thing like the first game, but it's some pretty heavy auto-aim. Here, just read this preview (damn good preview too)

[jhonny cage]

well hopefully it will be like mw2 auto aim:p

[demonkidproductions]

Do you mean, where you lock onto an enemy, or aim assist?

[HavokBR]

I HATE auto-aim....

I don't believe that this game will work with auto aim... :(

[matonking]

i HATE autoaim, especially on MW2 online.. its so retarded when it forces your guy to move even if your trying to set up a shot with someone else.. just about to take it BAM!!! someone runs infront of you and your camera moves.. you've taken a shot and missed .. now they know wher eyou are and you die :(

dammit

1 bullet 2 kills;)

haha i've had a 3x headshot with one bullet before! that was so epic i had to scream.

i've also killed two people with a throwing knife before!!..

its so strong from what I can see in the vids that it's a bit of both. Like u don't just hit a button and it finds the nearest target, u have to manually aim at the thing u wanna hit. However once you are aiming at it, from what it looks like to me, the auto-aim is so strong that even when i lift your reticle up slightly, as if u were trying to aim from their torso to their head, the guns bullets are still directed to the middle of the object u are trying to hit...

But that's when you're aiming at people. When aiming at a vehicle clearly u can aim at just the frame itself or u can adjust enough to aim for the vehicles tires... oh well, only time will tell. It doesn't look "game breaking" in any case so I'll still be getting my most anticipated game of the year on March 23rd no matter what.

i'm ranked 4,000 but i have'nt played in a few days cus its kind of boring there is no competition:hmm:

[matonking]

the worst offender HAS to be GTA4...

... how often were you trying to kill someone and you press to aim and it snaps to a cop thats a mile away?... god that annoyed me to no end!

Fortunatelly we were able to disable the autoaim :D

well see, that's what I'm saying. GTAIV did an amazing job of letting the player use or not use the function. U could toggle it completely off or on plus even if u had it on, u could control whether u were using it or not. That was great. But i always turned it off because I hated it so.... yea.

I got to like 196,000. But i havent played it in like a week because it bores me to high heaven!

Theres only so much i can take with all the camping, throwing knifes if fun though, i have to admit that. But not fun enough!

[matonking]

i never did turn it off, i just stopped playing the game :)

[P.M.4.L.]

I agree with GTA IV being the worst offender, singleplayer really isn't that bad seeing as you can choose whether to use it or not with the LT half in, but in online EVERYBODY uses it if it's enabled, it's just too easy to kill people with Auto-Aim in GTA IV Online, I look for a challenge in games.

[AssassinsMassCasue]

I still has no answer from MyColdMan... am i supposed to send him a PM or something for this sorta thing?

[HHDnBKing!]

My best advice would be if no reply tomorrow then yes PM him but be patient because he's a very busy man stirring up that pot with lots of new information for us e.g. Demo! :nut:

[R Belloq]

Did u pm him?

[chokedcherry]

auto aim sucks

[RobRocks]

Im guessing that the auto aim is probably essential for the grapple hook i mean if your jumping around like a loony you would probably miss a lot with the grapple so auto aim could be useful there.
but i dont think that auto aim is needed for shooting dudes judging by the amount of damage rico takes it wont mater how long he takes to aim properly

[chokedcherry]

only for shooting no auto aim then?

[RobRocks]

nah im only guessing dont take my word for it

[chokedcherry]

lol

[AssassinAgent47]

yeah I vote auto-aim toggle

if not include it in a patch for all platforms

At least the tether isn't auto-aim , image that , the game would be ruined

You aim your tether at something and it veers off and hits a banana tree

nope the tether definitely is. The tether reticle is the little rectangle that spins around in circles inside of the regular cross hairs. When you aim at something close enough to be touched by the grapplehook, the thing spins and turns from white to red. Thank God for demo soon. All questions and prayers answered in one fell swoop.

[AngryTom]

From what i heard it isn't auto-aim, its assisted-aim, apparently there's a difference like something to do with movement of the gun when aiming.

yea, sorry, I've called it the wrong thing, you're right. Auto-aim is like when u should look in a very broad general direction and you your aim completely snaps to the closest target and it because hard to move your aim away from that thing. Aim assist is just the game making your reticle move very slowly over an enemy or object, as it may be, but your are still in control.

The aim assist must not be that bad as you can certainly get headshots with it on since there is an achievement for like 50 headshots.
