    10/10 - This video was fantastic! A comprehensive, illustrative and to the point breakdown for aiming in Foxhole! You actually taught me about aiming before a target, now I'm excited to put this into practice, as aiming past the target sometimes ISNT the play, but now I know ^.^

    Any tips regarding aiming at people in trenches? it never feels like i can nail down how to aim at them properly

  • @DaglessMc

    @DaglessMc

    Жыл бұрын

    If you're aiming from another trench it can be really difficult, its really only feasible if they don't move. If you move you cursor behind them you can try to use small movement to try to get juuuuussst the right shot and you'll know when you have the right shot when the reticle is on the enemies head. if they crouch after you get the right spot you can just leave your cursor there and when they pop back up it should be fine. Its more a of a fringe tactic. personally i rarely do this. (It took me like 10 shots on target to kill the guy in my video) but it's good for getting people to move or take cover so friendlies can move up.

    A lot of the time, shooting trench-to-trench just isn't possible due to terrain. You need to flank, fire from a higher elevation or try arcing weapons.

    Theres a couple ways to counter. 1) if you have a full auto weapon aim for the center fo their shadow dance and full fire. 2) Retreat until you are out of range of their shots and turn around and try to get them while they chase. 3) if all else fails, run up and punch em.

    I'm sorry you're having a bad time. I understand the frustration. But you have to realize that shadow dancers are taking advantage of inexperience not Exploiting the game. you can counter them, sometimes it's harder sometimes it's easier depending on the situation. I've been killed by shadow dancers many times, i've killed shadow dancers many times and i've killed many people by shadow dancing. It takes alot of time and patience to learn how to deal with them (lag doesn't help )@@hussar4472

    This game would be absolutely amazing if they just made it first person, and the took the industry part from Factorio. Who wants to shoot from a third person ? And tank combat from War Thunder..

  • @DaglessMc

    I have to disagree, I think foxhole is unique and it being third person opens up the opportunity for players with skillsets outside of FPS games to shine. Also the game has industry in a similar vein to factorio. If you want to play something similar to Foxhole but FPS i would recommend Hell let Loose or Squad.

    The isometric shooting mechanic balances out FPS gods, and disincentivise auto-aim hacks. Stress and suppression become easily implementable, easily readabile, and infantry actions require more team work. Just as planned.

    I'd disagree, But i get where you're coming from. The issue with having a robust and complex aiming system is that theres alot of allowance for issues to arise. But the pro is that you get way more player agency and way more interesting things can happen.

    @@DaglessMc I don't know if I'd call this a "robust and complex" aiming system. Clonky and non-inspiring. If you think about it they've just managed to get FPS mechanics to work in 3rd person. And that's what bothering me as someone with tens of thousands of hours in games such as counter strike.

    @@ASDASD34RDFS ehh, how many top down games have you played where they have differences in elevation. I think alot of the things that make foxhole unique wouldn't be in the game if it wasn't for the "clunky" aiming system. Sure it's not counter strike, but it's also not an FPS. As someone who also has thousands of hours in FPS's and 1500 hrs in Foxhole I can appreciate the differences. Check out some of my operation videos If you want to see someone use this aiming system really well, its something that takes time to get used to . If not, well i hope you come around to foxholes systems and have a good time :).

    Old video so idk if this is worth sharing but a few tricks with aiming I have learned are 1. Even if you dont know someone is there visually like at night, you can use still find and hit someone by aiming around until you notice it snaps onto something or someone like you do when you aim past someone, note you can be hitting nothing and just wasting ammo so its situational 2. I find alot of people don't know you can blow up pod weapons by aiming past them until your bottom dot is on top of the gun, needs to be some sort of explosive weapon guns wont do it. 3. You can quickly aim in and shoot with near perfect accuracy or shadow dancing if you fire nearly right away after you aim in, takes some time to get the hang of. 4. You can throw nades with more distance if run forward while you release the throw , it adds inertia to it and allows you to gtfo of the danger zone seeing your already moving.
