    They are absolutely horrific. Can someone help me please. Getting killed so quickly because CJ just turns 180 for no reason in the middle of a gunfight. Aiming at nothing randomly.

    It's a joke.

    Is there a fix at all?

    Can you recreate this happening yourself or is it completely random? If you can recreate it, it might be a possibility to remap whatever buttons is causing it. Fingers crossed!

    It seems random. I'm using the default controls. If I'm shooting a target and move, then aim again, it lock aims in completely random point nowhere near where I am facing.

    I'm 100% sure it doesn't do this on the PS2 version, as I've played that to death many times.

    If it’s completely random you might be out of luck. I’d try remapping the button configuration if you can, swap the aim button around & try playing again. You might get lucky with it.

    Aiming is notoriously bad on PC for San An.
    It will lock onto an enemy running away from you behind you, before it'll lock onto the one standing in front of you shooting :pac:

    I don't know that I can offer a solution but you could maybe mess with sensitivity settings and see if that helps!

    Yup. That's what's happening alright.

    It's unplayable.
