For some reason, I cannot, for the life of me, aim properly in this game. I have my deadzones turned off, a sensitivity of 2 and a look accel of 5, yet, I cannot score a headshot right. I hit the body, knock their shields off, and then choke on the head shot with the magnum. Other weapons, like the BR, I have no problem scoring a head shot, but with the magnum it takes several more shots after I knock their shields down.
I have no idea what the aiming issues are in this game. I’ve heard some things about something called “heavy aim” and that 343i is planning on fixing it sometime this month.
If this is a constant problem, I doubt “heavy aim” is the issue.
Try playing SWAT to work on your headshots. If needed recalibrate your look sensitivity.
Also, a lot of people tend to get cocky or nervous on their last shot and end up choking. If you drop their shields and you still have yours, TAKE YOUR TIME. Make that last shot count.

I don’t think I have played SWAT on Halo 5 before, but I completely agree with taking your time. If someone is one shot, I tend to wait an extra second to make sure I hit the shot
I hate this studio…the one thing that made Halo enjoyable was the ease of aim - oops there that goes. I hope H6 makes you aim walk and turn all on one analog and the other one is for navigating REQ packs to buy…then well get the fanboys on how easy it is to use…give me a break.

Umm I like Halo 5 and Halo 4. Ranked Halo 5 just seems impossible because I can’t aim with the magnum. BTB, because you spawn with a BR, is fine. In reality, though, whatever is wrong with Halo 5’s aim isn’t that much worse than Reach’s reticle bloom.
Why doesn’t any of the other e-sport shooters modify their aiming system to Halo 5s? Pros play Call of Duty and Battlefield too, guess the developers of those games aren’t as big of a sell out as 343i. Just my onion.

343 are working on an update to fix this, it was being tested this weekend in Daytona.
