Why you should change your aiming settings in The Last of Us
Вставка
- Опубліковано 17 чер 2024
- Here's a detailed overview of the aiming settings in The Last of Us Part II (which also applies to Part I on controller). This should answer a lot of the questions I've been asked! Ultimately, the settings are a matter of personal preference, but there are a few things you should adjust to make hitting your shots easier and more consistent.
0:00 Intro
0:35 What is pre-aim?
1:25 Shooting in 30 fps
3:38 Acceleration
5:29 Ramp Power
8:54 Aim Assist
10:36 Sensitivity
12:35 Reticle Type
14:03 Other Settings
15:02 Outro - Ігри
This advice applies best to the original version of TLOU2, as some settings have changed in the Remastered version. I would love to get a PS5 and release an update to this video, but I'm not sure I can truly justify purchasing one yet.
If YOU want to put out a video discussing aiming settings in TLOU2 Remastered, then go for it! If you put one out and link this video in your upload, then I'll put a link to your video in this comment if I think it's done well!
I set it on a new scale which goes from 1 to 100.

How did u change ur reticle? I want to have the same one pls

I play TLOU 1 and 2 on PS5 and after the update I have such scales.
Unfortunately the Remastered version adds a slight bit of latency when aiming. I’ve done a lot of testing between the 2 versions, especially since I prefer motion controls (which was almost a nightmare when moving over to the remastered) and the ps4 version definitely feels snappier than the remastered version. I’d love to try No Return with the snappiness of ps4 Part 2
Just do it. I felt the same way, but I am so glad I got one. Its been one of the best investments ive made in a while. Nothing else compares to playing on ps5. Especially with the dualsense controller.
i should have watched this before finishing the game but good to know for the 2nd run
One of the few games I own which I actually do want to play again.
same here. Already played it about 3 times but this makes me want another go.
That’s exactly why I’m watching this
I’m on my second run rn and just found it. Currently tunnels on grounded per chapter.
beautiful i will never go back to high acceleration 😌

What a great lesson to start 3rd playthrough

I remember watching this video 3 years ago crazy how fast time flies. Congratulations on the amount of views you’ve gotten overtime. Now that The Last Of Us Part II has been officially remastered, I'm looking at the settings and they’ve been altered quite significantly. Maybe u should take a look and make a follow up this video now that the game is rendered at 60 FPS with even more camera and aiming sensitivity options available.
Same lol
Same
Same, the no return has me wanting to get better for grounded runs
Oh you don't know how badly I want to play the Remastered! Might finally get a PS5 for it, and if I do I'll definitely take a look at the settings. Thanks for sticking around!
@@scarlettthehumanno return is so fun it’s worth the $10 alone imo
TLOU2 has the best gameplay I’ve ever played

Why are you crying boy ?
@@MCLJN85 You are too immature to understand it, give it a few years kiddo
@@MCLJN85 Well, seeing the reactions from many players, I don't think than "Everyone already knows" the message of TLOU 2.
To be dumb is a human part, and the game show human's reactions. From the good side to the wrong side.
Then u mustve not played many games
This is such a great demonstration of how aiming works in console games. I'm new to shooter games on consoles as I play mostly using Keyboard and mouse so this definitely helps me to understand the importance of control settings! Keep up the good work man!
People think video game are just stupid things for kids, but in order to really get the most out of a game you have to understand how they work.
The circle represents the spread of the aim. The wider the circle, the less accurate the shot will be. But the circle represents anywhere the shot CAN land, which means it can land outside of the center. So just because your target is inside of part of the circle doesn't guarantee the shot will land on your target. The target has to be fully inside that circle to guarantee that. However, because there IS a spread, using the dot is less precise, since you can have the dot aligned with the target and the shot can spread outside that dot, potentially missing.
Personally I do like some acceleration as I do think we often press the stick a little too much at the start and acceleration helps control the start of the aim a little closer to what our mind expects, and is also better when you have a good pre-aim. Kind of like how when we do animation, you need a bit of a smooth transition at the start or it will feel wrong. Our minds just expect that kind of transition, and so not having that can be a problem. The analog nature of the stick helps solve that partially, but not totally. I might not use full acceleration, but some is probably okay.
The ramp setting I think will vary significantly depending on what sensitivity you use, because if you have a higher sensitivity, you'll want a slower minimum speed to balance it out. Kind of annoying that it does those jumps though instead of doing a smooth analog transition.
The spread is the same regardless of the reticle type
@@scarlettthehuman Yes I know, but if you don't use the circle you don't know where the spread probabilities are, that's what I'm saying. So just because the center dot is on the target, doesn't mean the bullet will land exactly there. The circle does a better job illustrating that I think. Especially if you have a tendency to fire very quickly after drawing as the spread is wider at the beginning of the aim, or if you use guns that have wider spread like the shotgun a lot.
@@AndyGilleand I see where you're coming from. Also, the circle doesn't represent the max discrepancy. It's about 3x the max discrepancy, with the bullet landing either on the center, 15% from the center to the circle, or occasionally 30% from the center to the circle
Facts
That wouldn't make sense at all. By your logic, playing with SIMPLE reticle is easier? What?
Your suggestions worked like a charm for me in Part II and now fully apply to Part I as well. Many thanks - twice!
Fantastic explanation of the concepts and the reasoning for the making each changes. I've tried these adjustments across a few playthroughs now and now feel far more confident in my aim as a result. Nice one.
Completely unrelated but I like ur voice. It’s relaxing to me.
I really appreciate that!
Yes, seconded
It is he should do asmr or something

This will be really useful for Factions 2
if it ever comes
😢
Bro .... I have sad news from the future... I'm sorry but... your wife factions has passed away .. we as fans tried everything
this is actually crazy detailed
I really only made this for speedrunners. I never intended for it to hit 1k views, but apparently it's been useful for people!
@@scarlettthehuman Well congratulations on 301k now!
Thank you so much for this! Very precise explanation (very often, I find that people rush their explanations and don't go into enough detail) and most importantly, I feel like I'm finally improving instead of struggling endlessly.
Your settings strike the perfect balance. Thank you again!!
Damn. Top notch content. In depth, on point. Great tutorial!
Helped me a lot and improved my aiming!! Thanks! :)
Props for your first tutorial 👍🏻
This was my first tutorial video ever! Hope the editing is okay. I've never worked this hard on a video before.
Very well explained and thoroughly well done :)
Thank you so much!! Lucky to have watched this before playing
Really?! This video is how education should be. You got straight to the point but then explained the point in ample detail. No vagueness, no BS. From the kid of two teachers, this lesson gets a thumbs up.
How do I turn off aiming while in motion
Your comment about the ain assist and not being able to develop consistent muscle memory brings about a key point in my mind; the development team went really into getting the desperation out of every single encounter. Different every time, protagonist is a kid with chucks on so the wonkiness if the controls almost serves to groom the players experience toward missing shots and having to find or craft more ammo, raising the tension even further. I'll admit, I thought I was loosing my mind when I would jump the trigger and miss my shot. It's almost like real life if you're not trained to break the trigger on target and you pull to one side.
It's crazy cool that Naughty Dog decided to put all of these settings and customization into the game. Although I have only recently finished the game and also only recently learned about these things.... It definitely would have helped me with my first playthrough.. Haha Great Video! I will surely be keeping these points in mind for my New Game Plus run! :)
Good to hear! I love what Naughty Dog did with their customization and accessibility features
Shows that there would’ve been serious potential and depth in a MP mode
Awesome analysis, Scarlett! I appreciate the hard work into making this video.
Perfect Scarlett. Super usefl & helpful, greatly explained. I feel the difference already.
Great video love the way you breakdown why adjusting the settings is important and what it exactly does.
Such a well made video and a smart explanation of things. Totally unexpected. I’m watching cuz im playing the game in another language that i am not comfortable with but I wanna excel at and watching a video on controller setting will make my experience more enjoyable. Kudos
That ending was kinda amazing xD, I loved the 30 fps vs 60fps showcase too. I have never thinked about fps like that before!
I thought it was a cool visualization!
Awesome video!!! Greatly improved my understanding of all these settings. Thanks!
This still applies. It's a nice touch they made shooting so intricate. Perfect video.
That was an awesome vid. I've seen so many LOUP2 speedruns and playthroughs but it's much hard to find a good video explaining HOW TO IMPROVE at the game. Would love to see more like this.
Thank you so much for this video because I was having a time with default settings and understanding the advanced mechanics and control settings. This has helped my gameplay so much and I’ve since then applied gyro-aiming, which is also a game changer for precise shooting for someone with heavy thumbs! Lol
Love your work! 🙏🏾
This deserves more way more views!! Thank you for this.
Great vid man,everything you explain has a purpose and makes the game way better
Very in depth video with critical information. Thanks man.
i appreciate the in depth overview. the first thing i do in a game is mess w the settings till it feels right. it took a while w this but it eventually felt pretty good..
Hugely helpful my brother. Just about to play this game for the first time. I’m beyond excited....Thank you! 🙏🏻
Thanks so much for the video. Helps me understand a lot of these concepts even for other games! Also super helpful for the remaster 👏🏼👏🏼
I'm lucky enough to come through this great video before playing the game. Will definitely use this settings. Thanks a lot 😁
This is a highly straightforward, understandable video, even tho i got the previous build without aim Acceleration, this video helped me
Hey ! Thanks for the tips ! Just tried it today. It’s much better.
What a fantastic tutorial! Thank you so much and I followed you on Twitch too.
I just recently looked over my setting and reset to default, and was confused about aim acceleration and ramp power, and referred to this video again after years. Great breakdown for these settings that I’m sure confuse most people. I’ve been gaming my whole life and never have I ever been confused with aim settings. The fact that the default for acceleration is 10, is insane. It’s almost like naughty dog wanted casual gamers to struggle, that sh** messes up you aim so bad 😂 and most people don’t even touch their settings other than sensitivity. This has probably frustrated so many people to the point where they only play on normal or just quit the game entirely
let's goooo Scar! this video was amazing!
Amazing, thank u for taking time explaining all these stuff
Came across this video the other day, havent been playing for a while, i tried these settings just for the hell of it and bro wtf landing headshots like this is easier than auto aim, gg nice work
Commenting this long after I should have but thank you. This really helped me greatly improve my aim and I have aim assist completely turned off and can pretty consistently nail headshots. Thank you for this guide, it’s great and very informative.
Holy crap this is a REVELATION. Thank you for making this!
omg im so glad i got this on my recommended, this is so helpful!!
Glad to hear it!
such an amazing, detailed video!!!!
Very useful video man! Thank you.
Thank you so much! This helped a lot! Thank you for teaching me what everything was and what the settings meant! 👍 very well done and thorough. You explained everything perfectly so I could totally understand what the settings do exactly 👌
Thanks a lot, this video really helped out!
Very helpful and informative video, thanks for sharing.
Thanks Scarlett, you're a gem!
Thanks for sharing this great info
This was actually very helpful that dude 👏
If you already know all the tips and tricks the popular UA-camr’s constantly keep repeating and have completely mastered The Last Of Us 2’s Combat and movement such as myself then this is the only video that will give you more information on how to better yourself during an encounter now.
What are your fav encounters?
@@Finjodb i love this games combat but hated the story. i always come back for ellie’s combat encounters because they’re so fucking good.
@@zander4529 same I always replay ellies half and then stop when it gets to abby
That was super helpful. Thanks!
This video was very helpful. Hope it puts to good use when I start playing again. I love The Last Of Us.
Great video, made a huge difference on my grounded run
Great video!
Very helpful for somebody who's trying the game for the first time and is aweful with a controller
Definite game-changer for aiming with a joystick. Hopefully other PS exclusives will have these aim settings in the future. Thank you Scarlett
Hey Scarlett, thanks so much for making this video. I've been trying to get better at shooting and never had any idea about the settings you've described. Now, armed with the knowledge you've provided, I'm going to adjust my settings to be more suited to my preference, and hopefully improve my shots. You've helped me enormously, thanks very much once again. Great vid.
Glad to hear it!
This video will be very useful when Factions II comes out
this aged badly
coming back to this video to say its been such a helpful video!! not only for tlou2 but other shooter games as well (new gamer here!)
Super good video. Thanks a bunch. 👍🏼
10:07 Found the stormtrooper.
Awesome video!! Lots of good stuff here. I just started streaming this last night so I'm definitely going to change my settings before I go live later today!
Just followed you on twitch im zombieland2024
I know this is old but the dot reticle can show you the drop for the bow, you just have to make sure to put the dot over the enemy. It doesn't always work and works better with the default reticle but it still does work with just the dot. That's why I only use the dot now, plus I feel it helped my aim with all weapons and the bow, I can judge distance without the range finder dot now
Why am I even watching this? I played with lock-on aim turned on lol

U shouldn’t, ruins the experience of the game.
@@kesqe5728 you can’t speak on someone else’s experience of the game 😂 if he prefers it like that let him
@@kesqe5728 why shouldnt he lol?on grounded the AI also has auto aim
Amazing video. You should be proud of what you do. 💯
I’m on the part with the seraphites (my first play through of tlou2) and I think that these settings will help a lot, considering that a lot of people in the comments seem to have missed this in their first play through 😳💪
Thank you ! Very good info!
What an useful guide, bravo man 😃😃
Awesome vid, thank you so much!
well explained and it led to a good result, earns a like
Thanks! Very helpful.
Incredibly helpful. Thank you.
Amazing video! 👏🏼
how did you know all this? this is top knot knowledge, not only for the game but also about how things work, I had no idea
Great video!!!
Congrats man
Thanks Man 👍I'm on Grounded+ and I find it helpful since enemies are way bit agile on this mode.
Superb video. Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you and one more, thank you.
Thanks that was really helpful 😊
This is the most helpful video i found on youtube 🎉
Awesome tips. Just started my 1st playthrough. Earned my sub
Great explanation. Thanks for this one
Awesome tips! Subbed
Nice toturial
It have to apply to all games
I have come to stay👍👍
Nice video. The segment with the dots showing 30 FPS vs 60 FPS makes it clear how 60 FPS allows for better precision naturally but Naughty Dog has these tools to help improve the experience at 30 FPS if needed.
Thank you for sharing the advice ❤
Finally! Aiming screwed my gaining lol. Thx for lotsa info!!!
I’m a late bloomer when it comes to PS4 gaming, just bought a console, played the first game, loved it. Currently playing the second game, and instantly hated the way it played and had to adjust them to suit my needs. Now I’m having a blast.
thanks for the tips. will definitely use those. i still panic shoot so the more help i can get the better :)
Panic shooting took me a long time to fix! When you flick super hard and shoot super fast, you're not taking advantage of how much time you actually have to shoot. Being gradual, even making small adjustments when you drag the reticle, counterintuitively gets you to your target faster than panicking does. But of course it's easier said than done!
thank you for the tips
Very helpful, just started the game. Thx.
Wow great info, thank you 🌸☮️🌸
Thanks so much for this vid. Really appreciate it.
thank u so much!! you're the best
5:50 - Haha, you and I both said "k... what the fuck is that?" at the the exact same time..
You have a very soothing voice. I love that you don't rush your speech.
I really like this compliment! I always say, no need to be in a hurry (even though I used to speedrun this game 😂)
Great video, some excellent pro level tips in here for those who don't know!
Beautiful video!
It’s funny. In my first play-through, I remember hesitating in the garage before pushing the stick to control 19-year-old Ellie. I knew it was a before and after moment, a point when I had never played as this version of her and a point when I had. It may seem silly or overblown, but I treated the whole first time like that because there’s only one.
But I remember it feeling weird when I moved around her room. Sluggish. It took me out of the game and felt like molasses. When I figured out the look sensitivity and jacked it up to 10, it felt much better to me. I thought the same would be true for aiming. I don’t know why I didn’t experiment more with it over the past year. Your video made me hungry to go back and play with the settings. Wish me luck!
Great video. Clear, friendly, informative. Thatsa spicy meatball!
Okay, wow. What a difference right off the bat! I jumped into the high school encounter with your recommended settings, paid close attention to my preaiming, and bam! Headshots galore. I can see where I need practice with the preaim, too, which feels like half the battle. Thank you for helping me find a way to make the game feel new again. :-)
