Huge Gamepad issue

Post » Thu Nov 26, 2015 9:16 pm

UPDATE:

THIS IS NOT A GAMEPAD ONLY ISSUE, AND HAPPENS ON ALL PLATFORMS.

This also happens with mouse and keyboard if you set your character to walk. Watch videos linked below to see the issue in action. (Thanks to parabolee over at GAF for the video)

Here is another video from G-Red on who posted in this topic (Thanks!).

------------------------

There is a huge issue with the camera when in 3rd person and having your weapon equipped, if you move the camera and also try to move your character at the same time, the camera will often get "stuck" for a second before moving again. This makes aiming a real problem in third person.

It seems to happen only when your character stops moving and then starts moving again, while the camera is trying to move at the same time.

Please fix this issue Bethesda it makes combat in third person almost unplayable.

Having the same issue, bumping this thread in the hopes that someone else whose having this issue has any input on it. When using my wireless 360 controller, it functions properly when in first person. In third person it works fine as long as I don't draw my weapon but as soon as I do the right anolog stick will randomly becomes unresponsive for a second or so.

was able to keep replicating the issue when I would jump and land, as the character does the landing stagger animation I try to rotate the right anolog stick and it just gets stuck for a second or so. This happens trying to do other actions too,as I'm looting containers, sometimes when aiming but always when in third person and only ever when my weapon is drawn.

Lol so did I. yeah,it's really hampering my enjoyment of the game. probably just end up svcking it up and playing in first person or with a m + kb. can't find any solutions to it yet and been scouring for hours. I'm going to try a wired 360 controller, see if that makes any difference.

Same problem here, I use a PS4 controller to play the game. I made a video about the bug, feel free to spread it around to get the word out to Bethesda about this issue.

since I cant post links in this forum for some reason, i had to split the link like that. Copy & Paste should still work though.

I have this issue as well. I don't see many people talking about it but hopefully someone can come up with a fix.

Bumping the thread as this issue really needs to be fixed.

This issue can easily be replicated by slowly moving the camera left or right, then quickly moving your character left or right. Every time the character switches directions the camera will lock up.

I'm playing using a ps3 controller (with a modified driver so the pc thinks its a 360 controller) and I haven't experienced any of those issues yet..

Did you do the things that were mentioned which cause the issue to happen? This happens even with mouse and keyboard so there is literally no way using a certain controller can fix the issue. It happens when you see the character freeze up for a split second when transitioning between certain animations.

I have managed to come up with a temporary partial fix while we wait for Bethesda to fix it properly.
In your Fallout4.ini under Documents/my games/Fallout 4
Add the following line under [Controls]
fLThumbDeadzone=0.9000
This will increase the deadzone on the left stick and make the area where slow movement is possible very small. Meaning you can essentially only run, but you will almost never hit the spot that causes the freeze. It can still happen, but unless you are trying to do it by being really slow and gentle it's unlikely.
This has made the game playable in third person for me, until they hopefully patch it or a real fix can be found.

Your welcome. It's less than ideal since we lose the ability to walk at different speeds, but better than suffering the freezing. Hopefully Bethesda of the community can come up with a better fix at some point.

Let's try and get this bug recognized to increase the chances of it getting fixed. The most important places are probably -

http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Fallout_4_bugs

and

http://forums.nexusmods.com/index.php?/topic/3373215-bug-list-if-you-find-bugs-post-them-here/

I have posted the bug to both places. Posting recognition of the bug on the nexus forum would help.

Has anyone else also noticed how when in 3rd person it seems too easy to select things like 4 meters away, as well as selecting things behind the playable character too?

Yes I have also noticed this. I can live with it though. When I am looting an area I often go into first person for ease of selecting things. It really is nothing compared to the freezing bug.

I have managed to get the freezing bug listed on both the Wiki and the Nexus forum Bug list! Hopefully the first patch will fix this! My fix makes it playable but breaks stealth builds (or at least makes them harder to use).
