Other Updates
Aim Assist (*console version only)
- The following functions have been added to the "Sights: Controller Basic Settings. " The simple setting had a fixed acceleration value for the sight movement, so the following functionality has been added to allow adjustments to a preferred sensitivity. ・[Normal Mode] Sight Movement Acceleration ・[Aim Mode] Sight Movement Acceleration
- The following adjustments have been made to the vertical acceleration of the sight movement. When in [Normal Mode], there was more aim-shifting than expected due to the high vertical sight acceleration, so this is being adjusted. ・Sights: Controller Advanced Settings The default value for "[Normal Mode] Vertical Sight Movement Acceleration" has been lowered from 210 to 120. ・The verical acceleration ratio for "[Normal Mode] Sight Movement Acceleration" in "Siights: Controller Basic Settings" has also been adjusted to match the default values detailed in the above settings.
