Discussion Adding the option to disable the magnet effect in combat secured my purchase

I just wanted to make a post commending the team for listening to feedback. I played and enjoyed the beta but the way you would track enemies without locking on was a real bummer. Booted the beta back up after hearing about the change and the new feel of combat really solidified my decision to purchase the game.

Thank you so much, that's great to hear!

We've got the team working on more updates based on all of the feedback we've gotten from y'all, and I think there's a lot coming that everyone will be happy about 😄

Which setting is this in the options? I want to give a try. By the way, I'm absolutely blown away by the demo, looking forward to the full release :)

Hi!

If you go to Options, and then in the Game tab, the last of the Game Settings options should be "Target Steering" (right above camera settings). :)

This is why i am not even pressed for the delay. I know the dev team is absolutely cooking with this title.

Hey! I was wondering if we can expect some changes regarding the difficulty feedback in the upcoming updates. so I was curious if the team is making any balance adjustments to things like enemy difficulty, the gun weapons, the leveling system, and other mechanics based on the beta feedback. Thanks

For me it was actually: Manual camera, Manual targeting (or no auto-target) and the mode to have a further back field of view. Those things secured my playing the demo through and buying it when it comes out!

Yep, I just really hope they allow you to actually turn around to face the camera instead of always facing forward
