Cover system and Camera | Forums

[CARNAGE8701]

I’m loving most of the stuff in this game but the cover system is just god awful. Won’t stick to cover when I want to, will pop out when I don’t want to. Can you guys talk to the devs that worked on Division 2’s cover system because they nailed it. I’ve always been baffled how Ubisoft games will perfect a game mechanic in one of there franchises but suck at that same mechanic in another.
Also an option to have the camera distance from the player adjustable like in Division 2.
Other then those two things, I’m enjoying the beta a lot. Love the changes you made to leveling up. Way better then Wildlands.

I agree. If they made it easier to peek around corners it would be nice. I like the stickiness of division, though idk if I want that entirely.

I agree also, tried to hide behind a tree kept popping out of cover getting me spotted. This started to get really annoying after a while

It was frustrating. Kept leaping out of cover at wrong times. Kept being sucked into cover when I was just walking around. Sometimes trying to get into a car was troublesome because I kept going into cover.

I agree. Another problem with the Breakpoint cover system is the normal look camera cursor doesn't remotely match the aim camera cursor. With wildlands what we looked at without a scope/ironsight was positioned exactly like the aim was. With breakpoint, if I line up the cursor just over a ridge and then aim, the cursor drops to where I don't have a shot. I end up spending 2 or 3 minutes just trying to position myself so I can shoot from cover. It's just terrible in break point (and perfect on wildlands).

In addition, aiming while prone is terrible, too (at least with keyboard and mouse). If I position the cursor at my target when looking normally, when I go into aim mode the cursor moves randomly way across the screen, and I have to spend several seconds trying to find my bearings again. It's very unpleasant and likely to make me not buy the game at full price.

Thw camera is a little to close. When behind cover I see more of the character when starting to pop up ans fire than I do the enemy. The weapon upgrade his is confusing. I think I lost my 416 when I upgraded to a new weapon. My 416 just disappeared.
