Can someone please explain to me why one game aiming feels fine and the next it feels like when you try to aim at your teammates? No aim assist at all. Thanks
You could be getting different servers where lag would affect you more than the other.
My experience with aiming in this game is that it’s extremely consistent. Consistently impossible. Every match. Every gun. I’m told that many Halo 5 weapons have a lot of aim assist but I have yet to experience it. I’ve tried to think of every possible explanation and I’ve come up with nothing. I can and often do go back and play older Halos and while they have their fair share of gun mechanics problems they have nothing to compare with the intransigence of Halo 5 guns. Can’t explain it. Tired of trying.
Aim assist varies every game. The reason H5 has such a problem with this is because this is the first Halo that ties connection with aiming. Why some players say they have no problem and the very next player says they do is basically because of buffering and how well the servers respond to it. All aiming and the mechanics tied to it are all done on the upload side of things. Have you ever noticed a game of 4 vs 4 where sometimes the top scorer on your team has like 20 kills or more and the rest of your team is much lower. Its not that he was a better player its more then likely his upload wasn’t being buffered. I myself personally feel 343 has something set a tad to aggressive when it comes to how the servers respond to this. This right here is one of the main causes of why we see so many lopsided games. Or where one game your aim is fine and shots register and the very next game plays just the opposite.
I actually have this issue on my maim Xbox but when I switch to my back up everything feels fine. Can’t figure it out
This definitely happens to me - and it’s exactly like you describe - trying to shoot teammates. It’s like the aim assist just stops working properly.
I suspect it’s tied to latency.
