What is your character name in New World: PhattyUK
What server/world did you experience your issue on: Bifrost
Describe the issue you are experiencing: Infected Throw on the hatchet seems to be sending the projectile from the left of your character and doesn’t converge onto where your crosshair is, so you have to put your crosshair far to the right to hit a target.
Is this a bug or an exploit: Bug
(if a bug) How did the issue effect your gameplay: Makes it annoying to aim with
(if a bug) Were you able to recover from the issue: No
(if a bug) Please include a screenshot or video of the issue that you have experienced: N/A
What are the steps to reproduce the issue as you experienced: Have a hatchet with the Infected Throw ability. Aim it at a target and watch it miss as it goes to the left of them.
This started in 1.0.5. It was fine the night before and since release. It’s worth noting that it’s always been kinda awkward when very close to mobs, but it always seemed to go where you expect it to go when you’re >1m away from your target.
Thanks for posting this! I was going to open up a post about it; I have the same behavior and feel like you, can you please look into this too? It’s very hard to hit after 1.0.5.
Thanks!
I was going to make a post on this too after trying infected throw for the first time. The point of aim does not always correspond with the point of impact. This seems to be intermittent in nature and makes using this at range quite difficult. For me when it happens, it tends to land high and left of the target indicator.
Just adding my frustration to this as well.
It was so accurate before and had great range which was the only reason I picked it up.
Now it’s almost useless.
My throw is doing the exact same thing as ukkenny4’s. It’s way off to the left.
Indeed. Would be nice if while fixing it they changed it so that it wouldn’t freeze but throw where you’re aiming at the point of release instead of just before.
