Losing aim assist alot

SO on xbox series x on graphics setting i keep losing aim assist in ranked not every time but it happens alot and it is anoying
And perfomance mode is really really bad like dropping more frames then on graphics settings

And sometimes hdr keeps bugging out had to force disable it and enable cuz it kept going from hdr to no hdr while ingame givimg black screens everytime
The game is not optimized well at all sadly

Btw if anyone asks my ping is 5 ms most matches so that cant be it

Just giving the feedback and hope they will look on how aim assist can dissapear like going from a 49%-50% ac to 30% makes no sense

There is issues with aim assist in general. Both Xbox and PC. This has been an ongoing issue for a while now.

This. Randomly cuts out, sometimes isn’t on at all before a fight even starts, randomly falls or boosts in strength stopping or overcorrecting shots etc. It’s just bad

You might be noticing what a lot of folks, myself included, are calling desync. Shot around corners with low ping? Killed in half the time it should have taken? Are your bullets flaring shields but not dealing damage?

Desync.

This honestly feels like the biggest issue with the game right now, and haven’t heard a peep from the devs about it.

It seems like every time I turn around, the devs are on vacation and nothing is getting fixed. Oh, but the store works perfectly, no bugs there.

Yeah, plus they basically said BTB would remain broken until the new year.

I get it, they need a break. I don’t want to see people grind through the holidays and have their morale broken, but it’s still ok for us to be disappointed.

It cuts out after jumping and when you pop a shield. It is really weird. I sometimes see my reticle make circular motions around the enemies head. Then I know I popped a shield and the aim assist is gone.

It’s a known bug, but it’s taking 343i a bit too long to fix.

Well the shield thing is supposedly supposed to be like that, as in working normally and then cutting out or reducing massively when their shield is gone, but even that isn’t consistent. It can cut out prematurely, or over strengthen itself instead of turning off etc

yeah the aim assist sucks. on the other hand, when i’m in a 1v1 and another enemy shows up, it seems to drag my reticle over to the other guy instead of the one i was almost finished with (and the one i was actually shooting), guaranteeing they BOTH live.

Yep…one sure way of saving a team mate is to literally stand next to him. The reticle seems to have a mind of its own in this situation. The same used to happen in Halo5 and CODMW tbf.

Actually I think I read that’s how it’s intended to work. Aim Assist only magnetizes on shielded enemies, then it’s up to player skill to aim for the head, otherwise Aim Assist would do all the work if it magnetized to an unshielded enemy’s head. Seen videos saying the same.

Yeah, that scenario would only make sense if Halo infinite would be a controller only game. But it is cross input, so that can’t be intentional. What would be the m&k equivalent? Less mouse control?

It’s not intended to be that way. You lose aim assist on jumping, unshielded enemies, or it just randomly goes away to have a nappy.

I can understand the rationale behind aim assist getting lowered when you jump, but I hate the shield pop mechanic. It just makes aiming feel way less consistent than it should. While it’s hard to say how much of this is due to server variance or other bugs, but overall I think aiming would feel way better if they lowered aim assist by 5-10% but left it the same after shields break.

If they intend to keep the shield breaking as intentional then yeah I’d agree. Even if it is already pretty weak in comparison to the other games, going from some (when it’s working) to immediately none with the server desync is not a good combo

5ms ping in every game?! Start renting your house to the pros for online stuff. Royal 2 wants your address. :wink:

Haha i bet he wants it but ye 5 ms fiber 1.5gb upload and dl gotta love it
