Halo 4 was the last title where the shot registration felt crispy. And I never played the 5 beta so I can't comment on how it felt at the time but I sure didn't like it when I finally got around to giving it a try.

silver lining is, if im understanding this correctly, is that someone at 343 who knows how the values work could make the area where reticle friction activates bigger, it can be fixed. Thats kinda the story of infinite overall, it CAN be fixed, but its taking forever and thier priorites are all over the place, likley due to incompetent higher ups, a spagetti code game due to over use of contract workers, and being very understaffed post launch. edit: sides submitting bug tickets, spreading good feedback like this on the forums and the social media of the 343 comunity folks has worked to make good change in the past, the challange ssytem, while still very bad, got significantly better due to this. We need to put good feedback like this where 343 devs will see it, and thus will have material to use to learn on thier shitty bosses.

I decided to try infinite again after about a year of not playing it and holy hell the aiming feels so much worst than when I last played. At first I thought I was just bad at the game after not playing for so long but after awhile I started to realize the game itself just had even worst aiming mechanics. I went into a game against bots to see if I was just having connection issues but no it was still the same tedious and frustrating effort to aim with certain weapons. The br retical does not match well with the bullet trajectory at all because of the magnetism issue even when the retical is red I legit would still miss all three burst if the vertical bars in the retical were not lined up on the target. It's even hard to keep track of someone 3ft - 4ft in front of you in this game as well. It just feels so bad to play now.

Straight forward explanation. Thanks for making this. There was a fluidity to aiming in previous titles and your Reach custom shows that. With Infinite lacking that space outside of the spartan and just being the spartan itself with magnetism, your reticle becomes clunky and jittery as you attempt micro corrections. And like you said, once your reticle is attached to an enemy, it's more difficult to snap it off, especially when you've got two people and you want to shoot the one who has less health but the other guy side steps into your reticle placement, so your reticle snaps to him. In a perfect world they would scrap this new system and continue using the previous systems.

The reason why this has been happening is because 343i have been taking game balance/design direction from professional players, like TeamBeyond, and those guys expressly told them things like "make the autoaim area smaller" and "get rid of strafe inertia so we can change direction quicker and be harder to track". What they were hoping to accomplish by this was increasing skill gap by making tracking more difficult, but what it actually did was turn the game into a random mess where every duel is an exercise in frustration and every Spartan moves like a KovaaK's target.

This video just SPEAKS to me, especially at the very beginning. Season 3 feels even sweaty.

I can't hit anything aiming is so difficult in this game when you're used to older Halos

Float IS float32... you are using a different program which will display units differently. I'll bet degrees are stored as a float internally in older Halos as well. Also, the angles in older Halos are in degrees, while I am assuming Infinite is using radians because it makes the math easier for built-in libraries. If you convert 0.11 radians to degrees, you get 6.3 degrees, which sounds about right.

This needs to gain some traction, ive always thought the aiming was off on this game and that the commando was so unreliable to headshot this but i didnt have the knowledge to explain it. Why they have changed this from legacy halo aim assist is beyond me

Simple fix, make straffing less responsive. A thousand pound SPARTAN is still effected by physics, you shouldn't be able to strafe as fast as you can in Infinite. Straffing should also make you less accurate, this is why weapon bloom was a good introduction with Reach, but people hated it because it was different. Dependence on straffing is a result of lazy game design, it's a crutch that players use because the gameplay is fundamentally flawed. Same thing goes for "Halo hopping", it's reared it ugly head again because the gameplay is lacking. This goes into why I keep pushing back the idea that people keep repeating, Halo Infinte has good gameplay, because it doesn't.

Rewarding the ability to keep your reticle on target while using movement (strafing, jumping, crouching) to throw off the enemy's aim isn't lazy game design. Discouraging movement by introducing accuracy penalties is overused and lazy in FPS.

@i-am-mercurial

2 жыл бұрын

100% the acceleration is a mess. To counter this I set my max threshold (the area of the edge of the stick where accel kicks in) to minimum, this also makes your response curve less severe, allowing me to run max sensitivity. Set up like this you only use the edge of the stick for wide turns and use the inside of the stick for all aiming, this means accel never kicks in for aiming. I actually run 5 accel to allow for fast turns but if you run 1 accel it will feel super consistent even when pegging.

The only aiming problem I experience is this weird phenomenon with a select few of the precision weapons. ESPECIALLY the commando. It feels like I'm shooting "just past" somebody's face, like he's skirting to the side of the bullets. Hitting a horizontally strafing target is very awkward. The reticle will be head on but, no hits. Stalker rifle is pretty bad about this too. It's frustrating but it also breaks the immersion a bit because it truly feels like you're hitting them. But then it FEELS like the bullets are projectile. It feels like I need to be leading my shot, that's what it is. But they're hitscan!

Great video, this really helps explain how bad the aiming system feels in Infinite compared to anything from MCC and even a lot of other shooters. Halo in particular used to feel very smooth and natural, like I could have full control over where my aim was placed. But in Infinite and Halo 5, it always felt like on controller the game just has a weird way of either constantly sliding my aim over and past my target, or not letting me make fluid micro adjustments. It is basically all or nothing with how it helps you, basically always being to little or too much, with no happy medium. The game almost perpetually feels like trying to snipe a teammate, but with all weapons. It is crazy because on paper, the way it currently is in Infinite sounds great for increasing the skill gap, but in practice it just feels extremely inconsistent, unnatural, and frustrating.

You know I'm kind of surprised that 343 went with this direction to balance AA. I would have done the anti thesis to it, i.e. the aim assist cone being as big as classic Halo games, but the adhesion and friction a small fraction of what it was. Why? Because it guides the player to the target while still requiring more input (thus more skill) to stay on target than previous Halo games.

As a returning Halo player this just perfectly describes how this game makes me feel. I've been a console kid for the majority of my early teenage years, got a PC in 2015 and switched to PC exclusively in 2017. I always missed Halo and did end up playing a little bit of the MCC, but with Halo 5 not really grabbing me and a shift in interests it just wasn't enough to keep me. In comes MCC on PC. It's tough fighting controller players but most of the time it doesn't feel impossible. Played a fair bit of that. Then in comes Infinite. I just cannot compete with controller players. 7 years of experience and hitting 45-50% accuracy every game, it's just not enough. I feel like I'm just always one shot behind. I play for a bit initially because it's still a fresh game and even though it's frustrating it really hasn't set in yet. The lack of content and frustration eventually get to me and I end up dropping the game for a while, only picking up the campaign occasionally to slowly work my way through. About 2 weeks ago I hop back in, because man I just really miss Halo sometimes. It doesn't take long for the frustrations to return. But it was the first day back on so no big deal, second day I am so close to just quitting the game again, but instead I decide to plug in a controller and try to unrust. 3rd game in I'm matching my mouse and keyboard accuracy. 1 week later I'm shooting more accurately than I could ever hope to achieve on mouse and keyboard. Sure, there is probably some muscle memory left from my teenage years, but it's been so long it shouldn't play that big of a role. I should not be shooting this good after only 1 week of practice. Getting on target was the biggest hurdle at first but once you're on target the game just aims for you. It's nice to be able to hit shots consistently, but something is just off. It doesn't FEEL good, and I never understood why before watching this video. I thought it was mostly just that it feels bad that the game is doing so much of the aiming for me, but it goes a lot deeper than that. I'm sure that's also a large part of it for me at least, but man. I do have to say tho, getting on target doesn't feel difficult at all anymore. And again I have to admit that I have a lot of time on the sticks under the belt, but that was years ago. I'm rusty as hell. To me it feels like I can kind of just swipe my aim onto an enemy and then the game just does the rest, only needing minor adjustments to stay on target. I just wish there was more to it, you know. I feel like this must feel really bad for players much better than me too. There is the movement part, sure, but even with that I don't really feel at a disadvantage at least aim wise. Aim is such a big part of shooters and the skill gap of that is was more narrow than it ought to be. If someone is much better than me I deserve to be aiming worse. Meanwhile I'm 4 bursting just the same as them. It's not fair. Not to me and not to them. I'm still getting my ass handed to me because they know the game much better and have better movement, sure, but it's not nearly as bad as it should be.

Good video but there's kind of a huge flaw in your understanding of integer storage that led you to think Infinite has a brand new system. float isn't a thing as a system distinct from float32. float will always be float16, float32, float64. The face you see 'float' in infinites tags without 32 doesn't indicate it's bespoke versus float32, that's what's called an 'alias' and it's convenient shorthand.

Honestly as someone whose been playing since the begining of Halo i describe myself in Infinite as a child learning to crawl and end up feeling like i've never played Halo before. There's no middle ground one game my accuracy is 50% another its under 10 like under 10 has never happened to me before in the franchise. I've been a fan of mostly all 343's changes but this i cant stand.

In infinite I feel I have to use slow sens because if I use fast sens then when aim assist turns off it will cause you to lose everytime. It also doesn’t help that the strafe speed is literally instant as well. The strafe speed and aim assist are easily my two biggest problems with infinites gameplay so far. Hopefully they change both at some point because the movement looks so amateur right now it’s crazy.

Ye but the strafe speed only effect everything that's not a br and the AR, that's why the whole Mera in comp is picking up an high dps weapon such as the mangler or the stalker, out dps the br, drop it and then finish the kill with the br. Weapon such the plasma pistols and pulse rifle have no tracking, no aim assist and no bullet mag at all and they are so bad to use,let alone things like the sniper, the commando and the sidekick.

@@MrPronGogh93 strafe speed affects every gun in the game especially the BR. Getting 4 bursts in infinite is only possible cuz the style of aim assist halo infinite has. Without it you would understand how wack the strafe speed is. When I say strafe speed I mean how fast you go from full speed to the left to full speed to the right. Not how fast the walk speed is. I’m fine with the movement speeds in infinite it’s how fast you get to maximum speed when holding a direction. In any other besides infinite it takes a little time to reach full speed so strafing isn’t to op. In infinite when you move your stick to the left it instantly allows you to go full speed which makes strafing crazy. It’s a huge reason as to why mouse and keyboard isn’t possible in infinite. In a game where you have to hit 4 bursts of the BR perfectly and has overpowered strafing to throw your aim off you would be stupid not to take the aim assist that literally tracks your targets exact hitbox for you. The meta is not picking up a high damage weapon either. The meta is what halo has always had. Br for most things until you get a certain weapon or equipment like a sniper for example and play accordingly. I haven’t seen much weapon switching in pro matches. Id say BR and shock rifle are both very powerful rn and both require no switching. Only combo that was meta was the mangler melee combo I’ve seen.

@@MrPronGogh93 I saw the video and the aim assist doesn’t really affect those weapons. For example when it comes to the commando and sidekick I don’t think they are bad just harder to use compared to a BR or AR. The commando in ranked is very good and most pro players pick it up over the BR even though the Br has better aim assist. The sidekick is also fine and most players in quick play nowadays use it over the AR. I think that’s a cool way to balance guns actually. The only problem I have with aim assist in infinite is that it’s not a bubble around the enemy’s it’s literally just their hitbox. Which means You don’t slow down when aiming near an enemy you slow down when your crosshair is on top of the enemy’s hit box. Which makes the tracking aim assist literally track your target during the fast infinite strafe. Which hides how bad the movement system is as well.

This has been the very bane of halo infinite for me, I love halo and the fact that for every single halo game besides halo infinite, I've always done well enough in each match no matter the score... I just thought I lost it, that I'm just really bad at halo infinite because you still sometimes see people fragging. I have no clue as to why this issue didn't get any notice but thank you for addressing this, makes me no longer feel I'm stranded.

This games AA drives me INSANE!!!! Being a MnK player I know exactly how it feels to be super sweaty when the controller guy is just getting easy 4 shots

At 11:53, I don't think it's an entirely separate system for aim assist. In math, radians are often used for angles. 2pi is 360 degrees, and 2pi is ~6.28. 1.57rad is 90 degrees, so the magnetism angle for the battle rifle would be 5.73 degrees ((0.1/1.57) * 90). The AR is 6.3 degrees respectfully.

I'm more interested in the way mouse and keyboard works. I just don't understand it as In any other Halo game on PC feels soooooo smooth and controllable but this game feels like im constantly fighting the controls.

I think it's irresponsible to assume that because the UI of Infinite's tag reader displays labels different from Assembly, that the system inside Infinite has substantially changed. In programming terms, all of these are 32bit floats. All of them. They always have been (because 16bit Floats have noticeable accuracy issues). Assembly does some smart reading to tell when a float value is accepted as a degree value, but that doesn't mean that the degree isn't a float. Or in this case, it doesn't mean that the engine isn't reading what Infinite's tag reader displays as 'float' as a 'degree' If there is other information that leads you to the conclusion that the system is different, then that should be displayed. Not that the units are labelled differently in a 3rd party program. A sidenote: The Microsoft standards have moved on, years ago, to calling Float32's 'Float', by now. Whereas when Halo CE released, 'Float' meant Float16, and Float32 was thus designated. Now we have Float8, Float16, Float, Float64, whereas we used to have Float8, Float, Float32.

Holy crap, old Halo's aiming is basically a less aggressive version of FromSoftware's FCS (fire control system) from the Armored Core games! No wonder I felt so at home when aiming there when I started 😂

Gotta love how this game has a pro scene too with this kinda shit lmao

Aim assist really is something you have to explain to people why controller users need it. The stick is terrible for aiming. Without any assist, it's extremely difficult to aim. Unless you use gyro aiming, controller users need the aim assist. Though from what I heard in this video, I guess it needs some work to be less hand holdy. I'm assuming at least. I have no idea how it feels. And for those wondering what gyro aiming is, look it up and try it for at least 30 minutes. It does take some getting use to. But it does feel amazing if your hands aren't too shakey

Oh look another reason 343 is god awful and can't do anything right, and when they come close they release updates that break more things. They've changed the aiming for this game like 2-3 times so far between both inputs. It's so pathetic how unfinished and lacking direction/balance this game is and was released as such. 343 deserves this series to die, and the players who support them and/or this garbage game do as well. It's just a shame us OG fans who actually love and care for this series have to suffer and get caught int he crossfire.

Dude aiming on controller is fucking impossible. It feels terrible

I find the droves of "at it's core, Halo Infinite game-play is the best the series has ever been" people absolutely tragic because they are being listened to. They have destroyed movement logic. They have destroyed "look" logic. How else could you possibly gimp a shooter in a genre where these things are literally, at a fundamental level, a requirement for fluid gameplay? My wrist hurts during and after when I play this game. No other game puts my joints constant on the edge of pain from having to be constantly micromanaging my aim to the point that every interaction I am gripping my mouse as if I were tensely micro-adjusting a sniper rifle at long distance or flicking in close quarters. If I don't do this, I miss, and I play worse. This issue is exclusive to Halo Infinite. Movement speed is too fast, has no momentum, no inertia, just lightning speed sweaty micro-adjustments akin to Fortnite's unavoidable sweaty building mechanics. Aiming is busted too and aside from fluctuating FPS altering your mouse speed, and introducing invisible motion stutters, I have no idea what the heck is going on in that department to this day, though I have theorized. What a colossal embarrassment, truly. MCC was broken on PC for years before it got "playable." Not fixed, but band-aided, given your FPS never fluctuates, and you have the perfect sensitivity for any given engagement range. Then you shovel out a premier "PC parity promised" release and it has the same issues as the last, only worse off. Absolute nonsense that I believe might just be broken at a fundamentally unfixable level at this point, considering "we're looking into it" turned into "we think we fixed it" then "we thought we fixed it, is it fixed" to radio silence and "wait for the next game lol idk good luck I guess." I doubt very much, unfortunate as it is, that these issues will ever be fixed. Not at the least without throwing time, and people, and resources at it, which they will absolutely not do because it isn't making them enough money. Could it have? Probably. Almost definitely actually. Not, however, after finally getting to releasing the long anticipated series on an eager platform, then breaking more empty unregulated "promises," disappointing willing fans and the newly interested, then tripping over their feet with half-cooked patches missing obvious fixes for half a decade while burning yourself out from the inside as a studio. -- I have to wonder: Why do I still care so much? At some point it's as if, "how dare you," but, I suppose my bad for being so foolish and hopeful. It's never as simple as we would like it to be or ever imagine it could be. Keep buying Japan man armor though, maybe that will fix the issue.

The description of floats is wrong, just to clear that up. Float 32 is no different from "float". If you wanted anything above the 32bit float value would just be called double. These are the same values but 343 messed things up that bad where people think something is different. Also, Auto aim angle is just the size of the AA cone, while it's the magnetism size and range + deviation angle (connection/desync) that gives you that "wrapping a bullet around a corner" effect.

Before watching I also discovered something. I'm usually one of the better players, playing halo since CE and using controller all my life. Sometimes on infinite I'd be top 3, and other times, flat bottom. Sometimes it felt like I was playing with two left hands, especially on SWAT. I found out it was because I would nudge my mouse which disables aim assist and doesn't always re-enable it on controller. Thing is you wouldn't know until playing because its not a visible option.

Great video. Hopefully some changes will come soon

Very good video I wonder if instead of degrees Infinite is using radians? (0.1 radians = ~5.7 degrees) Maybe it's just some arbitrary unit though, just spitballing. I was struggling to put my finger on why aiming feels so bad at times, but I feel like you have to be right (given, could be confirmation bias). Either way, really hope we see 343 change some of these settings around.

In depth and interesting video. Earnd a sub from me. But yeah I have played Halo since CE and while you have to " earn " your kills harder in Infinite it feels kinda rough. Smaller margin for error while aiming. It tracks more you say, yet the bullet magnetism is at a minimum. You have to shoot where you aim at tje enemy. Which Imo is a great thing, it invites skillfull aim training. Magnetism should begone BUT the tracking should be tweaked to Reach level I think. Would love to see how we perform if the DMR, even Neddler Rifle return. I love the BR but DMR is my jam. Hopefully projectile due to single shot and not 3 burst hit scan / extremely fast projectile for BR. Hit scan dosent stress tve servers as much as ptojectiles they say.

I *knew* something was busted/off. People wanted to say I was wrong, but I’ve played Halo enough to know it felt off.

Well I'm glad to see exactly why I hate the aim. I was so tired of people telling me I'm just imagining things and that I'm actually just watching the game play itself... Sadly, this doesn't look like something they intend to or even could fix for infinite. I just miss what it was.

This is exactly what I have been looking for. I play in high level Onyx ranked matches and I just hate how the br fights feel in this game. It's more about "aiming" with your left stick instead of the right because you lose aim assist almost instantly.

MnK have nothing to help track strafes in this game, so it just makes gunfights boil down to you always slightly undershooting or over shooting everything all the while youre also trying to strafe and crouch out of the way and their controller is slightly pulling their aim towards you at all times. and ove brought this argument up in discords and reddits as to why aim feels so frustrating and all i get is “get good” or “you have bad aim” or that the game feels more responsive and yet games like apex are way more fast paced than this yet i can track easily, and that game feels just as responsive as infinite and thats all because the characters have more weight and momentum, and like id be fine with this strafe system if at the very least bullet magnetism is increased, especially since it only gets worse the higher your fov is which for the most part most people on pc at least play like 110+. and like halo on its own can be frustrating to play even with more magnetism and slower strafing at least to newer people, so increasing strafe direction change speed and reducing bullet magnetism and removing red reticle just makes the game even more frustrating to play

Dude awesome video. Ive been crunching halo for 20 years and i love the videos that get into the development and computer sciences behind the game.

Great video.. I almost wish they never released on last gen. The game runs like a potato on my xbox one s so i can only imagine how worse it is for the OG xbox one. It just feels so sluggish and slow.. No matter what i set my deadzones and sens to, nothing helps. Halo 3 will always be the high point of this whole franchise.

I'm really trying to follow along with the mechanisms you're explaining, but it really doesn't help that the terminology is all over the place. (not necessarily your fault). When someone on the internet says magnetism, it can mean so many different things =/. None of the words you employ line up with how I understand those words xD. I've identified 3 aspects to aim assist. I intentionally don't use common words here because there is so much confusion around them. (eg, magnetism, aim assist, friction) -Type1 - Sensitivity reducation area: Reduces player sensitivity by a % while within a certain angle from the target. This helps being able to turn the camera fast and still be precise when near targets. -Type2 - Angular motion compensation area: Automatically moves the camera such that a % of the change in "compass bearing" (except 3d) to the target is compensated. This also applies within some angle (might be the same as the Type1 area angle) This helps hitting moving targets, and also helps you hit targets while you are moving. -Type 3 - Shot vector rotation: If your aim doesn't line up perfectly with the target, but if it is within some angle of the target, it comes out of your gun at an angle instead of straight, curved towards the target. Mouse users also get this type of assist, and it especially helps hitting small targets or targets near the end of its active range. The way I understand the words is: magnetism is Type3, and reticle friction is used for both Type1 and Type2. And all 3 are "aim assist". (You seem to say "adhesion" for Type2?) Also, floats do not represent "discrete" values. They represent scientific binary notation. So you can represent a value like 0.0245 with a float, but not with an integer. Somethign can also be a float and represent an angle in degrees at the same time. But all in all: Yeah, I agree aiming feels trash in infinite. Combat consistency went down the drain to make the game more viable as a crossplay title.

What mod tool did you use to mod halo? Did I miss that? I would like to learn and be able to know what changes they make in the future.

They have made aiming more challenging which sucks because it basically benefits people who are genetically gifted instead of playing smart. The game is less about strategy and more about how your fast twitch is.

I started playing Halo Infinite with the controller and I was missing every shot. It felt like there was no aim assist whatsoever but the moment I picked my mouse ans keyboard then boom! and I'm hitting every shot. What is this game?

I knew something was up with Infinite's aiming. Every gunfight using a precision weapon always feels like a struggle where I'm constantly straining my hands just to stay on target.

Aiming with the sniper feels(felt) absolutely terrible. Let's not even mention no scopes.

It's so weird. When I play on my gfs xbox (xbox one s) with my account it feels so fluid and I am cracked. But in the comfort of my own home it nearly seems like the game is TRYING to fuck me over. It feels as thought he aim is either not responsive enough or it's way too responsive. I have genuinely no clue why this happens. I have even taken one of her controllers home with me and nothing changed. It could be the differences in our xboxes since I am sporting the very first product of xbox one and she has 2 generations above mine but I just dont onow if that would make much of a difference. Can someone please explain to me why this is happening so I can actually be good at my own house? Edit: not to mention I use the sidekick because I want to get good at it and it feels like there it literally ZEEEEROOO aim assist because it absolutely refuses to even lock on even if I DO aim at them. The only way to kill them is to be some absolute aim god

I thought I was going crazy. So glad this isn't just me.

Aim assist in this game is just like precision aim assist like im Call Of Duty which is horrible. It took me a whole week of grinding just to get used to it, almost every other shooting game has "regular aim assist". I need help getting on target not staying on it like you said it helps staying on target. I noticed aim assist gets weaker based on your connection. Aim assist is like a bubble around the enemies on other game but this one is like a line straight down in them.

It's so awkward feeling thanks for posting this

Interesting video take. I'm not opposed to how this is framed, and I think you should be highlighted a bit more with this video. i'll check out your other ones, as you aren't wrong here. I don't think people fully understand that Infinite "is" a new engine, with many borrowed reworks and a borrowed interface & design engine from Halo 5; To this extend, the game itself "is" new but has a feel of classic Halo's. What you marked as "feeling" to the FPS is near spot on, however -- The games "Precision" feeling doesn't feel the same as the legacy titles. To this I'd have to also propose that change is a positive, and that this is both required and needed to progress forward. What we should be advocating 343 to doing is essentially working the system to be similar to the originals, and potentially lessening it from there, instead of entirely changing the properties out right. As far as usability is concerned; It doesn't stop players from mastering the controls on a controller or keyboard and mouse. It just makes the barrier of entry more difficult per platform being utilized. Ultimately, I do believe adjusting values to mirror classic titles may fundamentally break the sandbox, as many weapons are inherently easy to use already, which have minimal range drop off and a fast TTK (IE the Assault rifle). As far as "treating the commando like a BR", this is clearly intentional. The Commando is what an automatic is within various other FPS titles. Halo, being one of the only FPS titles to not utilize assault rifles appropriately, traditionally makes the assault rifles the "easiest weapons to use" where in various other competitive FPS titles -- the assault rifles are seemingly the hardest to use and master. The Commando adds a nice line between the two, and allows an automatic weapon with the precision of a precision weapon if appropriately handled. I believe this weapon has a very viable use-case and a bright future for it, however at this state of the game; There is only one "real" playlist to be had, and everything else is a method of "unlocking more armor" instead of the core FPS elements that Halo started -- it's matchmaking experience and getting better at the game. It's the one principle Halo Infinite lacks, that Halo actually started back in 2004.

The problem is that the controls aren't equaling out to how the weapons feel, which is causing inconsistencies. So I do believe 343 really needs to address and adjust as time goes on, but I also do believe having some semblance of similarities could coherently make the game far more familiar when jumping between the Halo titles. In essence; it should be a more difficult but similar experience to the past titles; Not an outright different sensitivity feeling.

There is no difference between float and degrees. Its a label. All values in both of these debuggers are stored as a float. Even the ones labled degrees. The person who wrote that debugger just decided to name a few fields after units instead of their data type. A data type is not a unit.

Ya see this is what I needed, I thought something was different with the guns in infinite but I couldn't put my finger on it. I'm not going mental. Great in depth detail bro, mad helpful

Explains why when you get descoped and suddenly you're aiming into the sky. As soon as you are not on target from being descoped, your aim is no longer locked within the targets precise outline, your aim is full sent to the direction you were ftryin to fine tune/aim while on target.
