Path of Exile 2

Path of Exile 2

Floaty inaccurate movement
So D4 and Last Epoch does not have this issue.
You click and the character keeps moving. They key bind to stop this also doesnt work as the character keeps moving for another 3/4 attacks before stopping so whats the point of a key if it doesnt work?
And using wasd is not the solution sorry. The movement should just be stable.:steamthumbsdown::steamthumbsdown:

Odd.. Considering the game is fully released, patched and optimised I cannot see how this could even be an issue..??

There's an option in the skills menu you can select to "Never move while using this skill" ... Too bad it doesn't work though.

Yup, theres your issue, mouse infection.

The arpg genre has since had vaccines for such in the way of controller support and even wasd controlls, but there's always someone out there who is antivax.

I highiy suggest getting a wired ps4 controller or similar to help alleviate the infection.

agree. playing witch point/click. I like the dodge mech., but game seems tuned to spam dodge incessantly. with the sluggish response-miss the target a hell of a lot.

A few years ago the aRPG (even POE1 players) players would troll and laugh at the idea of WASD/Controller, and now POE2 has made it like it should be the standard lol.

Imo if one of the main control schemes of the genre is underdeveloped compared to the rest the devs have severly missed the mark.

I never thought I would see that day that "aRPG players" would urge people to go to WASD or controller over the classic point and click. Its like in FGs when fight stick was the standard and then the "cheat box" I mean Hitbox took over and now thats all most pros use.

Modern gaming sucks lol.

It is a funny thing, honestly for basic arpg style games such as poe1, the mouse is still king imo.

Recently with games like lost ark and d4 where dodging became standard beyond click to get out of bad, controller has become king.

Don't get me wrong with wasd+mouse is great, but you suddenly need to dodge roll out at 66°, wasd can't provide that level of precision.

Yeah I'm not even personally saying WASD is bad as more options are good but, I'm just saying a aRPG thats worst control scheme happens to be the standard of the genre is kind of weird to me.

yea the floaty feels weird im use to stutter stepping in poe1. i swapped to wasd for now.
hey is there a fix for this by now? the floaty movement feels incredibly bad.

Only because the point and click controls in PoE2 are complete trash.

attack without moving : (random video from search)
thanks that video has nothing to do with my problem though.

my problem: when playing ranged characters, either bows or magic, when you hold shift and attack, your character doesn't stop moving, they keep walking to the last place you told them to go. i don't want that. i want to stop in my tracks like in any other ARPG.
