Aim Sensitivity QoL

    The camera movement is percentually reduced while using Mouse in one of these (scenarios):

    • Aiming with Cannons
    • Aiming with Harpoons
    • Moving across the zoomed Map
    • Moving across the World Map
    • Aiming with Spyglass

    So, in order to make it possible to use your mouse for that, you have to set Mouse Sensitivity at a very high value, but it affects your normal character camera movement as well which has an impact on your precise movement.

    So instead, usually players set Mouse Movement on lower values to achieve a better player experience from higher precision in the game.
    However, by doing so, the camera movement is already slow enough and in the mentioned scenarios the camera movement is almost impossible to control using your mouse then - because of the percentage reduction from the settings.

    Make the camera movement in the mentioned scenarios fixed (not affected by the Mouse Sensitivity setting) ... OR give us the option to customize it as shown in the image below (this would apply to controllers as well).

    For, now there is a working workaround to use your Gaming Mouse with Sniper Button. You can set your Sniper button to increase your DPI instead of lowering it. So, you can use it then while being in the mentioned scenarios for a better aim.

    Make it equal for everyone, so nobody has any advantage over others because of better gear.

    This would be a huge QoL change as well (in the same manner as adding Trident in the past).

    For example, when using cannons, you always want to use your mouse for a more precise aim instead of WASD. With using only WASD it is impossible to aim precisely ... and even controllers can aim more precisely than PC users without using Mouse.

    tldr Mouse user wants even more of an advantage than he already has.

    @foambreaker Not sure if you have even read any content of it then just the title.

    But here is the thing to make the environment equal to everyone, not leaving anyone in advantage because of the gear.

    Literally, me and my friends can do it like so, because of the gear we have. I just want to make a suggestion for QoL which gives the opportunity to everyone play the game equally.

    @foambreaker I would really like to hear you in a real discussion on voice chat. Your reactions are hilarious to everything on this forum in such a way without even reading anything. Now, here is my Discord @frixs let's have a voice chat if you dare to argue, or stay in the silence as a chat warrior. :-)

    @frixsik I read it and I posted, if you don't like it that is too bad, it's my opinion.

    Use wasd on your keyboard to do your larger movements and make precise adjustments with your mouse. Trust me it takes getting used to but moving the cannon with wasd is faster than just the mouse

    @ravenclaw214 Yea, thats what we all end up doing. Just not as fast nor precise enough as abusing this:

    @ravenclaw214 That is what we all do. But when you set your Mouse Sens. low enough to be able to precisely aim no-scope, then even with the help of WASD, the Mouse Sens during e.g. cannon aim is too low to manipulate the cannons precisely.

    So I always use +5000 DPI increase mouse sniper button while aiming cannons, harpoons, spyglass, etc. In harsh waters when waves hit you a lot, it is required.
