How do I enable Aim Assist for my controller?
-
I don't use a mouse and keyboard for BO2, never did. Found this exists but apparently aim assist does not? Could use the help to know how to enable it. Thank you
Edit: Nvm. Dev's refuse to enable aim assist for controller users lol. Great effort but you absolutely shit the bed for the guys who emptied hundreds if not a couple thousand hours into the Xbox 360 BO2 version who wanna come here and play. Playing with a controller without aim assist is like trying to walk through a sea of molasses expecting to succeed. A for effort fellas but this shit sure as hell ain't for me.

TheHammer idk why people expect a pc game to have aim assist and even get mad at the devs for not implementing it lol... it's not as simple as you may think.

Alright well I'm tryna be reasonable. The problem here is the PC game you've chosen to bring up to speed, and I will say 100% you guys did a great job of doing just that. Runs amazing on my rig and looks way better than it ever did on my 360. But the majority of players were indeed on 360. The 70k peak on Steam is like a pebble of dirt in comparison to the majority of millions of active players on 360. If Aim Assist for Controllers is that hard to implement than damn that actually really sucks....because at that point you can't even have servers with the option to enable it and other servers have it totally disabled, you know? It's not a matter of me being amazing, good or bad with a mouse and keyboard for FPS games on PC. I play my FPS games with a controller, always. Idk, if Aim Assist on gamepads ever becomes an option I'd be glad to stick around here for along time, assuming the population stays up.
But I've had to force myself to move on from modern fps game's due to how shitty they really have become and I was really hoping your work on BO2 PC was going to scratch that itch I used to have, and it would have if Aim Assist existed for gamepads. It's all good though, I'm just one player out of thousands.

TheHammer discussions about aim assist are not entirely off the table but there are 2 major issues we are facing here:
- aim assist was completely stripped from the pc version of bo2 so it's not possible for us to simply "re-activate" it. we would have to write an entirely custom implementation which would also mean it's extremely hard to make it feel exactly like on console.
- we don't want pc players to be treated as second class citizens on their own platform, for example by exposing if a player is using kbm or controller to a server and server owners then proceeding to kick or ban players based on which input device they're using (happening already on trickshot servers).

I know this is quite old already, and I even know that including aim assist on BO2 Plutonium is a fucked up work, but ngl that in IW4X you can use your controller and it has aim assist support. Not trying to compare, just telling some facts. With this said, I just wanna know if you can really try to put aim assist. Thank you and good night.

TheHammer just aim better lol

loadingsp IW4x does not contain any form of aim assist for xinput devices.
Regardless, we've said before, no aim assist for our projects.
