Added Auto-Centering for PC Flight

Added auto-centering behavior on swimming and flying by default for PC.

When mouse input stops (after a delay) the crosshair will automatically return to center.

​

This will singlehandedly fix flying for me I feel.

Awesome news! The PC players definitely appreciate the fact you guys are working so hard to make the game's controls smoother on Mouse and Keyboard.

Huge if true. Can anyone confirm such wild claims by the OP?

Cannot way to see how those changes play out (in two weeks). /u/BenIrvo

However, I'd like to bring your attention to a related subject:

Zoomed sensitivity isn't consistent across weapon types and zoom levels. Encouraging USA aside, I consider it to be a problem worth noting as it directly undermines the value of the zoomed sensitivity slider.

Example:

While auto-pistols and assault rifles seem to share the same magnification while aimed, the sensitivities are vastly different - pistols are about four times as sensitive as ARs are regardless of zoomed sensitivity value. Given there are no per-weapon category settings, this greatly detracts from gameplay consistency.

Therefore I propose one of the following:

• Manually adjust zoom and sensitivity ratios to be close to consistent
• Implement opti...

Actually the social hub brings up another concern.

If there is no text chat in the social hub than its just a fancy room with players walking around, no way to actually be social.

is this a "100% agree! we are totally going to be adding text chat"

or is this "100% agree! text chat would be great but we have no plans to add it at this time"

That’s a nice confusing blabla in order to sell the game without confirming that you will implement a text chat for sure.

Did you also worked on Guns sounds in general, cause gun gameplay lacks severely impact because, shooting sound is quite flat and enemys are missing impact animations. I mentioned it here https://www.reddit.com/r/AnthemTheGame/comments/akokk9/no_spoilers_my_impression_on_things_that_needs/ already changeging sounds is prob. the easier way to infuse some impact into gun gameplay instead of creating new animations.

The combo one is great, but it's kind of hard to reliably score headshots with some weapons given the way recoil behaves in the demo builds right now.

It feels like sometimes my guns just kick randomly out of synch with their rate of fire, and my crosshair bounces up and down - it feels very noticeable with ARs and LMGs. Is there some hard flinch from incoming fire, or is this a bug?

So basically, the Storm combo’d the game?

Mmmm nothing better than the audio director commenting. You know, I absolutely love the acoustics and sound of games, it‘s an insanely huge part of the game, but people rarely notice. I‘ve watched lots of live-streams about Anthem because my Dual Core PC can’t handle this (try me bruh), and I gotta say - The Sound fidelity is awesome so far, but guns, for example, still need a punch. Not talking CoD Style hitmarker sound-effects, but something more „space-ish sounding“, a satisfying noise that’ll make you go „mmmmm I wanna keep shooting“. The guns just lack a bit of the special something. Have you ever played Borderlands? Shooting a sniper rifle was amazing. It felt so satisfying, and you just kept shooting enemies. It was simple, yet there was so much power behind it. You want to feel this as a player.

I also saw this „ninja javelin“ pretty often, you know, the one who relies on close combat abilities, and he seriously lacks the „punch“. You need to feel each hit, you want...

I hope you haven't taken away that satisfying "ping" when you pop a Scar with a headshot kill :)

The sounds in the game are amazing! If I had to give one feedback is just to add an elimination confirm sound. STAR WARS Battlefront 1 didn't have this and they add in SWBF2. Another example of this is The Division 2, they added a sound after confirming a kill that turns the gameplay so much more crisp and responsive, I think it would be great in Anthem!

But do you have integration into JIRA so automatically populate your Feature Request backlog ;)
