I had a Spur made the other day, and I find the charge to be completely useless because the projectile doesn't auto-target like guns do. There are other swords with similar normal attacks and useful charge attacks, so I'm a little disappointed in my choice of weapon. I play with a gamepad, which is one of the things I really like about the game, and auto-target with guns is a godsend.
The auto-target cursor should appear when the player begins to charge a sword with a projectile charge attack. It would make those swords as useful for gamepad users as they are for mouse users.
Thanks
First of all playing with game pad takes a little getting used to. Second auto target would ruin the game and make it too easy. Third i play with a gamepad too and i use strafing alot, so try that and see if you can play better.
