The Aim Sucks in the Game
« on: May 06, 2007, 10:14:36 AM »
Well not really, but ever since I played this game, the aim have been bothering me. As you know, when you shots, your bullets don't really go in the way your crosshair is aiming at. For me, the bullets usually goes tot eh right when I'm shooting while I'm standing. Also when you shoot in a long distance, the bullets seem to go in an arch. Which usually is confusing for me.

So my question is, was the game designed like this or am I missing something? Also is there a way to make the aim like other shooters or is it considered cheating?

arch = common physics ^^ paintballs don't fly at very high speed, so they are forced down by gravity
balls going to the right:  probably caused by you playing righthanded (you can switch to center or lefthandedness in the menus)

Oh ok. Also is there a way to make the paintballs fly like every other shooting game?

with a server-side setting, I think you can accelerate ballflight (reducing the arch).  Other than that.. I guess not

It's paintball, not counter-strike. Get used to the physics.

I did get used to the physics, but I was just asking if there was a way to make it like other shooting games.

Doesn't the type of barrel also effect the direction of the paintballs?

I got so used to center that if I use either hand now I can't aim at all.
