Forums - Gaming - Dual Analog Aiming Sucks, Hail Motion Aiming

Eh, mouse and keyboard easily beats any other control method. Analog sticks are wonky as hell for aim, motion controls are cumbersome and offer poor feedback imo. M+K for the win...

Same, motion aiming is such a pain. I disabled it and use dual analog :)

Too bad mouse and keyboard destroys everything else.

I agree, but well, mouse is a motion aiming. a different kind, where you move the mouse over a mousepad. but still motion aiming.

You can turn motion off.



yes, just yes.
Why can just use ps4 gyro controls for helping aiming? i feel like a noob. first shooter game i manage to play well on consoles was splatoon due motion controls.

I suppose so.



I also agree with OP. And feel sad gyro controls are underused on PS4.

Just because something is better, doesn't mean everything else sucks. There is people who like dual analog setups, let them be.

Nope. It does suck. Why do you think most fps games have aim assist? Why pc gamers happily use controllers on pc for 3rd person games, rpgs and so on but never for shooters? It simply isn't precise. I pretty much always play on console and can acknowledge this simple truth. 

 

I just don't care enough to do anything about it.



Well sure, and stick + gyro is more precise than just stick.



Motion controls complemented by dual analog is imo the way to go (on consoles). Dual analog is too inprecise and slow on it's own, while motion controls are too jittering on thir own. Together, with the analog stick to point in the general direction and the motion controls for finetuning I found a perfect mix in Splatoon, coming actually pretty close to a mouse/keyboard control scheme on PC.
