are you playing on PC? I'm on xbox and the shooting feels harder and less natural than it did in FO76 or 4. I wonder if they optimized it for PC more than xbox
Yeah playing on PC. It's certainly not the best combat ever but it is worlds better than any previous Bethesda title save possibly for their involvement with RAGE, but I think that was more of a publishing deal and the gunplay was all ID software.
I can't comment on using a gamepad, it has always felt like writing left-handed to me.
Really dial in the sensitivity I'd say. It took me like legit cranking it up and then adjusting down by 2% at a time to find a sweet spot. But it's definitely much more responsive and tighter than any other Fallout-esque game they've done. Those always felt mushy.
I'll say too it's probably that the games aim assist is very light. Like almost hardly there. For a single player offline game it could use a small increase. Like I'm still able to head shot dudes but it's noticeable, and combined with muscle memory for similar games, having hardly any 'magnetism' is an adjustment. I keep meaning to look if there's a slider in the settings.
ok thanks for the tip! i'll give that a try. i think i got too used to the mushy shooting in fallout and compensated by using a lot of left stick (moving) to handle the finer aiming. so it's just not what i got used to haha
I'm on Xbox and enjoying the shooting far more than any fallout. My favorite part of the game so far is the combat I think
huh, maybe it's just me then. i'll give it some more time, only about 4 hours in the game so far.
