Needless to say, I quickly put down the controller and went back to my trusty mouse and keyboard. On the next screen, click the left thumb button on the joystick again.

For axis calibration, move your joystick in full circles, and make sure the + sign traces all four sides and corners of the square. Follow the directions of the Device Calibration Wizard that appears. Or maybe mouse and keyboard control is just so much better, that the controller's shortcomings are all the more glaring by comparison. Click the left thumb button on your joystick.

It's like I unlearned how to aim with my thumb the better I got with a mouse. In fact, I played BF4 on my brothers PS3 and I was racking up a ton of. I used to kill hard on BF3 on the PS3 but it seems like the sticks on the PS4 (or just the game settings in general) are more sensitive than the PS3 was. Is this just how it always was for me with a controller? Sure I'm a bit out of practice, but I think it's more than that. It seems like anything high and Ill sway past my enemy left and right and theyll just be in the middle laughing at me. And how the hell do you spin around to quickly pick off that enemy shooting you in the back? I don't know how controller players do it. I could land body shots easily enough, but it was damn near impossible to move the stick precisely enough to score a headshot. The enemies don't strafe or dodge much-they mostly just stand there and soak up your bullets. Void Bastards isn't exactly a difficult shooter, either.

I fiddled with joystick sensitivity to see if things improved, but nope.

Movement on a controller is fine, but tilting a joystick to aim just felt so imprecise. Other than that, its just impossible to escape a Jet thats tailing you without help or a colossal fuckup on their part. The only thing people change is rebinding the Move Up to Space, so you can have as tight as a turn as you can get. (I'm looking at you Tim: It's time to add a mouse to your list of essential Destiny 2 resources.) Its really easy to fly the jets in BF3/4 with just Mouse n Keyboard. Seriously, how the hell do you aim with a controller? How did I ever aim with a controller? I know I'm preaching to the choir here on PC Gamer, where mouse and keyboard is king, but I know there are millions of gamers out there-PC and console alike-who play their shooters with a controller. I unlearned how to aim with my thumb the better I got with a mouse.
