Aiming problems with Switch Pro Controller.

[borboaandy]

Hi everyone and I hope you are having a great start of the year!
So to begin with, I am new to the game and when I first played it the camera went all crazy moving alone to all direction making impossible to play (with the controller at least as I prefer to play games with it). I went to controller settings and after a few moments discovered that I had to turn gyro off on the in game controller settings. Now with that done the aiming is still kind of awkward, to put it in one way. There is no sensitivity settings as such but rather a deadzone meter for the aiming stick. I kind of understand the basic of deadzone but has ANYONE OF YOU change the deadzone settings and found a good spot to aim smoothly ? If so, please share your control settings.
Thanks in advance.

I’m not to experienced with using controllers in l4d2, let alone their settings, but maybe there is some kind of joystick sensitivity like there is mouse sensitivity? If you still have trouble aiming there is an option to turn on aim assist. Hope this helps in someway.

Thanks man, it is really stubborn for my part I know, but I stick to controllers hahaha
And I was able to fix. First of all, sensitivity in both sticks need to be play with a lot, if you put it to zero the aiming stick will even move alone. And the most important thing is that for some reason Gero (I hope I write it down correctly) was turn on by default and that means every time you move the controller the cursor moves just like a mouse. That was the main issue. Maybe I will put a tutorial on how to check those thing if there are new comer to this game that experience that too now or in the future.

You got guts, i give you that. Because even with XBOX controller, the game still dangerously wonky and hard to control even with tweaks and such. No seriously, playing FPS with controller is as bad as playing racing game with keyboard; its bad idea to begin with.

Oh, I did not see it that way. I guess I should better get a nice mouse then, to enjoy at it fullest potential .

Playing an FPS with a controller simply doesn't make any sense. Unless you're playing on a console where it's your only option then it can't be helped.
Now, playing an FPS with a controller competitively online is special ed.

This. I already had sometimes people that obviously played with a controller in the game since they were really slow and constantly changed to idle when horde came, obviously because they cannot react fast enough with a controller. It is really annoying, especially on higher difficulties.

I think your controller suffers from the "drifting" issue. very common with joycons and pro controllers unfortunately
