What do you think about gyro aiming?
Like conceptually or in a competitive environment? I think gyro aiming sucks to use personally but for some people who cant use traditional user interfaces I understand it can be revolutionary.
I have no problems with it as it is still just an alternative way to translate the humans input into a direct action. It's no different than a thumb stick in my eyes.
Yeah, I meant in the context of competition. It's not aim assist, but with practice it can be quite competitive vs the mouse.
I agree, it should be fair game for competitive play, unlike aim assist.
Yeah it's the computer augmentation of player inputs that I have a problem with. Alternative input methods that are still 1 to 1 with the human player input don't bother me. I don't care if it's gyro or tongue joystick or whatever else.
