Tab Targeting is not intuitive

[Jonathan12uiz]

Usually you want to target something you are facing, and if not - face it and then try to target it. Closest target might be all good for melee in most cases, but not so much for ranged characters.


No it doesn't and that is clearly presented in my video, but it seems you are too busy advertising, to actually have watched the video.

I use "X" "X" to target the "target" in front of me. If i press right dpad. the nearest target is next... and so on till it loops. If I use the left dpad. It targets furthest one to closest. Thats how I've been playing, but I'm not on mouse and key. I prefer controllers. so technically if you target what the game calls forward, it select the closest target. Also I watched your video. I can see that the 1 and 2 are the closest... with POV being so far and not being able to measure distance of variables... it could be that the 2 was "closest target" ... as for it drifting off further before 1... is beyond me... I don't seem to have this issue. Have you applied filters before to combat this? Maybe my filter settings are what keeping me from having this issue. Hence the reason I mentioned the targeting filters... It's easier to point to my thread than typing it over and over.

As for advertising... I don't monetize videos... so I just put it there for reference... Sometime YOUTUBE automatically applies ads if the content is owned by a company that requires ads to run on my videos, but I don't push videos for views or money... just trying to help. Try the filters and see if this helps... I know there are only enemies in this video, but because your current filter is ALL... it might not prioritize. Checking is all I was saying... if it helps then good... if not submit a bug... ( im not sure if there is a more OFFICIAL bug report than forum post in this section, since i've have yet to encounter any)

the farther your camera is from your character (or having an increased field of view) increases your TAB preferences. Trying to click on a target is a futile effort. I agree that more work needs be done to tab targeting to make it more intuitive.
