auto aim

[Hookworm]

how can i disable it? its impossible to aim properly if this stupid console peasant assist system grab the crosshair everywhere everytime.
i wouldnt dare hoping for an option to not slow down the mouse speed while im zooming with a weapon just like in the rest of the good/normal fps games.....

I also need a solution to this...

same here. hard to get headshots with pistol as it keeps trying force my aim off. havent noticed a big difference with shotgun. sniper doesnt have auto aim which is part of why i love it and use that the most.

bad news guys, there is no fix for that. At least in 2016 there wasnt any. So just keep using ur melee because ranged combat is sux

[mattleec]

ranged combat is the most effective. just not with pistol. melee is awesome in this game too though.

if ur ranged is the most effective thing in a dead island game, then u do something fundamentally wrong with ur melee. :D

1 shot 1 kill with sniper or shotgun. how is that not the most effective. even logan cant beat that unless its a insta kill on throw. usualy with logan its the shock mod or whichever you like that finishes them off while they are standing there stunned from hit (axes work best imo). if you have a good aim and timing with a katana you can lop of the head as they charge you which is also effective. everything else usualy involves a lot more hits. 3 or 4 at least if not more.

think I agree guns are way better in this game than the 1st, probally the most overpowered weapons in the game.

definitley. guns were decent in the 1st game and fun to play with but used a lot of ammo to kill so generaly the same or weaker then other weapons. i think blades had to most damage. all weapons seem better in riptide though but guns are now the most op. 1st game i would say logan was the most op character. riptide guns are far superior. auto aim makes pistols only a little better than 1st game as it throws off aim making headshots frustratingly difficult but shotguns and sniper rifles work just fine. headshot is 1 shot kill. body shot is 2 shot kill at most for shotgun/sniper and even that is sometimes just 1 shot for regular zombies. thugs take 3-4 head shots to kill with sniper making those super easy now. purna beats even logan for damage in riptide. although logan remains a close 2nd. whatever works for each player though. no right way or wrong way to play. just have fun with your prefered combat style.

guns are overall better in riptide, true, but as i remember the ammo is very limited in this game... dying light guns are much better because of the possibility to buy ammo directly from shops

[mattleec]

in riptide you can buy ammo from trevor at any point in the game so once you have guns (mid to late game or new game +), ammo is easy to get. in the 1st game you pretty much only got guns from humans you fight and what i would do is fill my inventory with fully loaded guns then go stick those in storage. that way when doing a new game + where the ammo is extremely limited in the 1st part of that game i could take the guns out of storage and drop them as needed to refill my ammo.i would also make sure i ended the 1st game with a inventory of fully loaded guns on me to carry me to when you get access to storage. for riptide, you get a pistol for reward when doing the defense of the mission or around that part which isnt really that far into the game. shotgun and sniper rifle right after that. for early game starting out you get the flaregun and nailgun as well as the harpoon gun a bit later. you might even find a gun earlier opening chests. reusable ammo for nailgun and harpoon gun and the flaregun has ammo that keeps respawning at paradise so easy to get tons of it. also tons of ammo lying about all over the town once you get there. pistol and shotgun ammo boxes at the marina. as far as how much you can carrry, purna gets at least double if not more. i cant remember the amounts off the top of my head. even without purna though you can carry enough to do a lot. you generaly carry enough without playing purna to kill 100 or so zombies. also in dying light the guns attract the freshly turned zombies so i found best not to use guns at all in that game unless indoors.

I am not getting auto aim with guns

[mattleec]

its only when aiming at the head with pistols. the auto aim will keep trying to throw it off the head.
