Uncharted 3 patch addresses aiming controls, fans made it possible


Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception will be receiving a patch after fans have dissected the game's aiming problems. Complaints don't lead to results, but videos with commentary and analytical charts do, and they lit up Naughty Dog's eyes.

Naughty Dog chose two NeoGAF members to help address the aiming issue with their development team. "We showed them a before and after without telling them which one was changed to see how they liked these alternate settings that our programmer had come up with," said Naughty Dog's community manager Arne Meyer. "As part of that process, we iterated on what the feedback was and we were making changes on the fly, and changing different things from what we originally changed to get the right feel for the aiming."

The aim patch doesn't have a release date, but it will offer the option of switching between Uncharted 2 and Uncharted 3 aim settings when it goes live.
