Sticky aim
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

I have encountered an issue where I'm unable move my reticule around anymore. It gets stuck and the only way to move it is to aim down my sight, which only gives me 45° angle FoV total. I may actually look around about 270°, but I can only shoot and walk straight forward.

This happended is that after completing objectives and some of the dialog had been said. My aim gets stuk to a particular point, and i am only able to look around at 270° around me
First time it happened was on Drawdown 2035, after the first hostile encounter - second time on Death Valley, right as I was heading to recover the UAV equipement.

Steps To Reproduce

Was not able to reproduce. Independent of my actions it seems.

Additional Information
  • This is totally random, as i have only had this happen on one occasion per gaming session yet.

(12-08-2013) started happening more often but it is still occasional.

  • First time, i was stuck, seemingly, around North-Northwest, second time around southwest.
  • I have not tried to save right after the bug to see if it saved the bug. I just loaded the last auto save. It was enough to fix it though.
  • I was able to counter the issue by reloading my last savefile.

December 8th 2013 - Resuming the game after reporting the issue did not fix the issue itself. I did need to reload the autosave.

I'm sorry but you didn't actually say what the issue is?

3rd time this happened on Wet Work after the first hostile encounter, inside the chappel thats right, up the hilltop.

The issue is now as clearly stated as I can. Unfortunatly, I did not study programming so my ability to point out the issue is pretty limited. I'm reporting what was able to witness, thus that my aim gets sicky. Only way to get 45° angle around it is by aiming down the sight.

Thank you for updating the description.

It sounds like you have toggled on free look. It's a feature that allows you to look around without having to change the direction of your movement. The default key to toggle it on/off is <b>2x Left Alt</b> or <b>Numpad *</b>.

Try turning it on using the aforementioned key and see if this is what you've encountered.

Indeed, it fixed it so this is no issue.
My apologies, I obviously don't know all the key bindings (there are so many :P).

I don't think i know how to delete the post, please feel free to do so Deadfast.

No worries, I'll close the ticket as no bug.
