If I use the 360 controller to play H2 vista on a pc, will the game enable the aim-assist/magnetism like it does on the xbox? Just curious for when I get the game.


(Easy way to test - stand still, looking ahead, and have an enemy walk by in front of you, and if there is aim-assist/magnetism, it'll drag your cursor automatically a tiny bit to aim at the enemy)

Actually if you're not moving your crosshair, there is no aim-assist. But the answer is yes.

Most of the PC issues posted here are the result of PEBKAC.

The aim-assist is minimal though, don't expect it to win you matches.

Actually, the auto-aim with the controller is more than enough to give it a huge advantage over KB/M. It will win you matches.

I think you had to move back and forth slightly or move the cursor a bit for what I said to work - you're right.

Thanks for the answers.

I've been using this controller for a week. I constantly get raped by KB/M users.

Are you going to call the police about this?

No.

Part of the problem is on my end. I lag a bit.

Yes you do
should be NO controller support for pc FPS

What it is.

I am pretty sure i can tell the difference in KB/M and controller users. I'm not 100% certain, but maybe i'm too used to new people at the game that when the good aimers seem to be like controller users. I don't know, I'll use KB/M but if i feel like it, I'll go with the controller.

Why not? 360 controllers are just as much PC input devices as keyboards and mice are.

Boo hoo indeed. It's stupid that controller users have such an advantage. If they get aim assist, then so should k/m users.

Just be glad that it's been toned down from the Xbox version.... That game would practically play itself.....

Also... Aim Assist on KB/M? I can't think of anything more annoyying

Red Faction 2 has it when almost point blank - sometime's its pretty awkward.
