Lock on?

[Slade Steel]

Why doesn't it lock on? I have it on assisted aim full and it still won't lock on. I am using the mouse and keyboard.

Assisted aim full is effectively snap to and from enemies. It's a controller oriented feature. You'll generally default to free aim with mouse aim.

Well I can't hit ♥♥♥♥ with the free aim with the mouse. It always gets me killed. Most of the time online.

Well controllers are more useful for moving around the 3D environment, the 360 degrees of reaction make it optimal for these open world sandbox games. But aiming is stunted due to the inability to quickly aim in directions with the same precision of movement a mouse gets.

It's give and take really. I feel the game is best played with a controller, personally. So I can't think of countermeasures for inability to cope with manual aim.

As vaguely stated above - Assisted aiming in all forms, only applies to controllers. Keyboard and Mouse will always use free-aim, regardless of what kind of setting you have it turned to.

it is very hard to play with a m&kb. and the aim assist on the joypad is shoddy to say the least.
youl get used to switching from one to the other. and even using both at the same time.
(right analogue stick for movement while holding down the left trigger button, then use the mouse to look around and place your crosshairs.

there will be plenty of times that the aim assist dosnt do what you want it to do, and it ends up getting you killed. a quick switch to the mouse can make things a little more accurate.
there was some kind of peripheral called "aim-on", which works on same principal as using a joypad (a 1 handed device) and a mouse at the same time.

If you want it using keyboard and mouse you have to get a X1 or 360 controller, a keyboard and mouse adapter for consoles such as XIM4 and plug your keyboard, mouse and controller into the adapter.

It only works on PC if the game supports controller.

cool. this game should of just had an option to turn on aim assist for the mouse and keyboard.
i might look into that adapter. seems like a cool addition to the old 'borg' board.

But the aim assist may lock on to dead bodies or enemy far away instead of the one you want to attack.

You're gonna pay $150+ to get aim assist on your mouse for GTA V? Just use a damn controller. Aim Assist ruins mouse gameplay.

Practice makes perfect , its just like any other FPS/TPS. Aim-Assist is designed for controllers. You will profit if you get some skill on mouse aim.
