Its built into the game
seriously enough of the auto-aim BS. Have any of you ever played H2X??? its not a "auto-aim" its more like a "aim assist" without it it would be impossible to play halo with a controller. you would never hit shit.
As for your not hitting anything problem. it could just be that the server your playing on sucks. thats just lag. get a good FAST server and youll see that the shots register MUCH better.

Bullshit, Halo 1 didn't have nearly as much "aim assist" as Halo 2 and people were very good at it
Re: Aiming/Hitting your target
Halo 2 has more "aim-assist" than Halo 1. Go check youtube for a comparison video. And the halo 1 sniper lag-leading, you might have to predict where the target is going, but for example, if they are going straight, but you are on the other side of the map (blood gulch), you'll have to aim in front of them by like 3 - 5 steps. In Halo 2, i think that you don't have to aim in front of them, you just use the sniper to follow wherever your target is going. But you'll have to be trigger-fast and have a good mouse. But i have to admit, maybe again, Conscars, its just you.

There is a bit of Lead, not near as Much as Halo 1 but it's there.

Dude, I can aim pretty damn well with a controller on Halo 1 PC. It just takes some practice, but I can almost play as good as I can with the keyboard/mouse. Most players are problably spoiled with the noobified auto aiming or "aim assists" which is why most would probably not be able to hit shit with no auto aim on a controller. I never liked the automatic aiming mechanisms that plagued, console fps games. Thats why I prefer PC fps games. Not to mention this only works with a xbox360 controller, not any other controller. I think it was just a marketing deploy to sell xbox360 controllers to PC gamers because it gives them an advantage. I noticed I can get much better shots with the controller than with the mouse since I have to do less work and use less skill to aim.

The hell? I'm not buying another controller, I'm getting this.

Honestly this "aim assist" is pointless. Why the hell would you buy the game unless for a computer experience. If it's impossible to play then that's too bad, maybe they should use a controller without "aim assist" cause it's actually a load of BS. Mouse and keyboard like the rest of us.

Agreed 100%. I play with the controller on Halo PC all the time, usually come in first. I think it's total BS that they did the whole auto aim thing with H2V. My room mate actually found out about the controller glitch while he was testing the game, and we were hoping it'd be fixed by the time it came out, and it hasn't unfortunately.
It's a shame everyone got so hyped up about H2V only to be screwed by how much some of this shit really sucks.

You need to lead just a wittle bit with the sniper rifle.
