Looting deathboxes with controller is unfair
Us controller users are at a major disadvantage since we cannot strafe around while searching dead players loot boxes. This has gotten me killed TONS of times mid-battle since its practically suicid...
Forum Discussion
The left stick moves your character. The left stick navigates the menus while looting... Making it impossible to move.
And the other guy replying is obviously a troll so he gets no reply.
There is practically no auto aim with controllers and this has been tested.
As a controller player on PC I agree with @VenderAzura
I've made the decision to take the alternative peripheral, I have to accept all the benefits and drawbacks that come with it.
If we say that mouse/kb users shouldn't be able to move whilst looting death boxes, do we also say that controllers shouldn't get aim assist because mouse/kb players don't get it?? (even though it's minimal in this game)
Do we block the use of mouse buttons 3,4,5 because only some gaming mice and not all mice have these buttons??? the list could go on.
If you used a controller you wouldnt be saying there is some advantage going on with aim assist.
Its obvious you are trying to gain a sympathetic response with that statement.
I mean, really its painfully obvious.
Aim is superior with mouse and keyboard and there is no need for controllers to be at a disadvantage due to a simple design flaw unrelated to the peripheral in question.
I really dont get it. Lets nerf the controllers ability to loot... Thatll fix him for that auto aim that hardly exists!
Why is this being argued... Its like raising the gas price because a bird * on your windshield.
Have you ever been in a situation where your team says "go get the gold armor off his body! quick!" And i have to reply with "I cant! im using a controller and im not allowed to..." And then you watch as an enemy runs over and takes the armor while he wiggles around and runs off with it.
Yeah, i have. All too often.
You guys can sit here and troll to your hearts content but this is seriously a problem.
I'm gonna give you the benefit of the doubt that you are referring to @VenderAzura otherwise i'd be really embarrassed for you that you didn't read the first line of my response.
As a controller user on PC I just don't agree with you. Yes, there's minimal aim assist, but that's not really the point.
You're argument essentially boils down to 'I can't have it so you shouldn't have it' well that applies just as much to kb/mouse players with aim assist- so denying them it would be double standards.
Same with my explanation about mouse keys - do you ban mouse button's 3-9+ because not all mice have them? Do you ban quick ping shortcuts on keyboard that we have to use the scroll wheel for on controller? - if you don't, again double standards.
It's entirely possible that we just have different play styles, perhaps i'm more conservative so don't rush in on deathboxes, maybe I loot quicker - so this issue just doesn't happen to me, but not once have I thought that being able to wiggle a bit would have saved me being shot in a hail or AR fire or a grande being thrown next to the deathbox i'm looting.
Either way, i'm not trolling, I just don't agree.
which keys do you use on keyboard to move while looting?
WASD doesnt work for me...
Do I have to set alternative keys?
