I've just played the demo of this game and the one thing stopping me from buying it is i find it very very hard to aim, so much so that i keep getting shot.. is there any way to auto aim without having to pinpoint a guys head with the right stick??

You get used to it fast enough. I was slightly put off by the aiming system when i played the demo too. But after playing through a few chapters you learn a few tricks to it. Then you get a bit faster and a bit smarter and eventually it becomes instinctive as anything. The learning curve is actually great. The demo unfortunately throws you into chapter 4 which is kind of a hard place to start.

Aiming is a tad bit hard at first, I started at level one and couldn't get used to it for a while and got killed about three to five times.

But it gets easier as you get further in the game, soon you won't even realizing you're doing it, you're finger will automatically do it.

But I hope you get the game and enjoy it!

You have to find cover..thats the main thing. Once you find cover you can take your time with aiming and not get shot. Also you have to switched between left and right shoulder camera angles it helps sight your enemies (for aiming) whilst in the saftey of cover. Also aiming is pretty good once you get used to it.

I had hard times with aiming, but it has got perfect while I went through more chapters, you should get used to it quickly.

I found it much faster to aim if you can first center the enemy in the center of the screen, then use the left button to aim. The result is that you won't have to move the right stick very much to 'fine tune' your aim to hit the guy. If you take cover first then you'll have plenty of opportunity to center the enemy in the middle of the screen first.

While taking cover you can also poke your head out to aim for a second, use the right stick to fine tune your aim, then duck back without firing. Once you have him centered, then poke your head out again and fire. If you are low on ammo or using a low-ammo weapon like the Wes or the Dragon Sniper, this is a good way make sure each bullet counts.

Also, if you've earned enough medal points, the slow motion and super slow motion rewards are extremely useful to give you more time to aim, especially on the hard difficulty.
