DEAD SPACE runs when aiming!!!!

i just went out and bought myself dead space... its amazing so far and glad i bought it :) 1 problem though... and i dont know if this is to do with my control pads or the sensitivity in the game or what... but when im stood still i dont move anywhere... but as soon as i draw my gun or whatever he starts to run forwards! i have to constantly nudge my control pad backwards to get him to stop... this makes the game infuriating to play!!!

and im sure this is not meant to happen...

anyone else having this problem? this is happening with both my control pads btw. HELP!!!!!

I'm not sure what's causing that. Make sure you're only hitting the aim button; I think if you press run even while not running, you'll move fordward.

Didn't happen on mine.

i guess sitting on them in the past hasnt helped..

i guess thesensitivitywhilst aiming gets cranked up which makes my character move seen as the left analogue stick is ever so slightly off centre, not that i can tell or anything like this happens in any other game i own!

Nope thats not normal. Prbly a glitch or your controller.soulfood4

It sounds like the controller needs to be calibrated - though I don't think there's an option for that in this game.

To solve this issue...

ALWAYS use a first party controller. DS3 FTW! :)

Yeap Its your controller.... I got the same problem.... But thats also the only problem, which is'nt so bad:D

both my controllers are sony ta very much lol

I would reset my controller if I was you, at the bottom should be a small indented button. Get a tooth pick or knife and press it in should reconfigure your controller hope this works.ACrazedHobbit

Dude, I have the same problem because my L3 stick is ruined because of COD4 with sprinting and now my stick leaning forward. Just deal with it or get a new controller.BrettB7400

the controllers cost as much if not more than the games :/

omg that must be what it is cuz i my old SIXAXIS has that. it's really annoying in menus cuz it'll just keep going on and on! also, SS:HD is annoying to play- i kept crashing into rocks above me :(

i bought a DS3 though, and haven't played COD so its fine

Yeah, its happened to three of my controllers while playing COD4. I bought a DS3 for other games. Im never letting myself or anyone play my DS3 for COD4. Thats a big no-no.

As they have about 1000 hours of wireless gaming in them, then they seem to just die out like the Dodo.

It's not your controller. I'm shocked more people haven't experienced this...

In games like Oblivion/Fallout/Gears/Dead Space, almost anything on the Unreal Engine especially, your character continues to walk after you let go sometimes, and if you barely push the left stick to take one step, sometimes he'll continue walking.

I don't find it frustrating at all, just tap the stick backwards and he will stop. This is something I've been noticing from a lot of games this entire generation though.
