Well I don't know how aimbots should work.

I'd imagine aimbots would remove the requirement of "looking at you" before shooting, because that's what humans can already do.. why would someone use an aimbot then if he could already do what the aimbot is supposed to do?

[Soy]

Umm... I'm not really gonna talk about aimbots............... but what I will try and say is that aimbots can aim with no compensation, no error correction. So thusly it looks unnatural, it would look the opposite of what you see in this game, where they're not looking at someone and then instantly zoom right at them and fire.

I suppose I'm not fit for this thread, as I have no clue how those things work and how one can tell one from the other.

[Soy]

Totally fine maSch, don't concern yourself with it if you don't understand. It's just a stupid joke.

This video could be a litmus test for this community.

It's dawned on me as a result that I think when people talk about lack of faith in PGI that the real people who don't get it are the gamers. People blame PGI for "not knowing how to play their game" well why is it that experienced players generally understand what I'm doing in this vid and underhive don't. Hmm.

People probably took you on face value and expected to see something truly functional.

Also, free-looking while zoomed in or partially zoomed in is less noticeable for what it is because much of the cockpit is no longer visible.


And last there is the magic carpet ride, which you yourself didn't even understand what was happening in the video.



Just taking a guess.

For a sec yeah I didn't know what was goin on then I realized it was that Cent runnin around with me I was on.

That's why I'm like "o..." but I kept goin with it, just wanted to give a silly reaction.

Tryin to act obnoxious in the vid, kinda goin along with the "oh look super leet trickshot pro" gimmick.

And you're correct it is largely functionless. You can do stuff with freelook in other situations that are pretty cool, but really, what I'm doing in this is only gonna lead to ****** up shots. I even miss the Dire Wolf kill cuz I'm takin an extra moment to do the stupid trick.

Ty for the video -- an excellent tool to limit face-time when lining up an alpha -- gunna use it.

[Soy]

Sure, you're welcome, but you're not gonna get much utility out of this particular firing cadence...

It's more harmful than helpful if you really think about it.

What you really want to work on is snap shotting quickly and accurately to minimize facetime.

[LORD TSARKON]

Is this the same glitch/whatevers that made Direwolves rotate /circle jerk faster than normal? Beccause you could do the Freelook or Center Torso button after firing? I thought PGI fixed that? Although anyone playing a Nova should AUTOMATICALLY have some sort of Aim assist because of how crappy that mech is...

I only freelook sometimes when I"m trying to protect my right arm in a Dragon or something... but I rarely do it...

and no one can compare to Fantastic Tuesday's laugh.... that guy should market or Trademark that laugh... make it a ring tone or something

And here I was wondering about using free look to snap the CT away from the target after a shot just the other day...

[Soy]

I think this video needs more dislikes from blind underhivelings..!

[dezgra]

Liked the video "muted". I get it, also I want to place an order for a green magic carpet.

[Kristov Kerensky]

Good stuff Soy, kind of surprised myself more people don't get it, but hey...

Excellent example of how to use freelook to screw yourself out of good shots

[Bobzilla]

Edit it to play in reverse and accuse yourself of cheating, maybe then people will get it.

lol LOL

you think outside the box as well i see....... got my eye on you bob.

[Dino Might]

^ that gives me an idea for a match - only reverse movement allowed.

[Soy]

Yes... I must make a backpedal underhive video now........... everything done in reverse...... fire the lrms and then the narc.......... etc................ doritos, I'll grab it when the guy keels over dead.......... drop arty after target moves out of position...................................... lot of ways to do this
