Lock picking on nextgen consoles

This absolutely needs to be patched. I’ve even seen heaps of youtube videos of people saying the same thing. I was an insane lock pick master on Skyrim, I could pick master level locks basically right away I was so good. This game is just broken when it comes to lock picking on consoles. The interface was clearly designed for the PC and it does NOT translate well over to console at ALL. For the love of god please fix this soon!

I lockpicked my way into the monastery before becoming a monk since I refused to read spoilers on who Pious was. Ended up ruining a few quests while there since I stole a few quest items that were now with my worldly goods in a trunk outside the monastery.

Been trying to open chests with lockpicking since I started playing…Feb 20th (ps4)…Just opened my first one today ! :slight_smile: Trained with Miller Peshek to get lvl 2 , and it really made a difference. Saved up enough lockpicks from selling loot, and kept trying on the millers chest until I hit 3. Now its a lot easier with the perk you get once you hit level 3. Good luck !

lol lockpicking on Skyrim was just not even hard? Why do so many people give up when its hard. If you would endure it for an hour you would knwo that you would have no problem anymore locjkpicking. i’ve come to a point in the game i dont even have to put in on the sweetspot i just turn the lock when i see its yellow not even matters if it’s a big yellow dot or small one.

So seriously try harder and stop ruining it for people that want a challenge, im playing on ps4 with controler fyi.

No it doesn’t. It’s perfectly fine as it is.

Dude I’ve been gaming for over 35 years. I beat almost anything I play on the hardest difficulty, I love a challenge. This game mechanic is busted on console. Sorry if I disagree with you.

It’s being updated in the next patch. It’s currently going through certification, which can take 1-2 weeks based on the platform.

yet so many players testify that it’s easy after some practice. It’s not broken, you need to invest time in something to learn. im playing on console and i raged in the beginning until i got to lvl 3 then it became so easy i couldn’t belived i cried over it in the forums. But everyone just wants the game to get easy by the get go so they don’t have to bother to actualy lrean how to do it.

It’s not broken. It’s tricky at first and some people are unable to beat it but that doesn’t mean it’s broken. It just means you can’t figure it out.

Lockpicking is easy if you use this tip.
Put your controller on a flat surface and hold the thumbsticks with your fingers. This way you get way.more control.

no gaystation and shitbox

Please refrain from immature trolling comments, you’re welcome to dislike consoles but plenty of people do like them.

lock picking is fine on console. (I play on a ps4 pro) yes in the beginning its hard but once you get past level 2 it becomes easy. naturally the harder the lock the more difficult it becomes, but its not impossible. I totally have the technique down now and 95% of the time I get them open on first try.

… or because the game was ridiculously easy?

One of the main selling points of KCD is that you’re not a super-hero. Shit is hard to do and you have to practice. If you could pick “master level locks” straight away, that’s a bug in the game IMO.

Ffs turn your pc or phone off and stop posting here for a while. That’s bantergeddon.

ahm i play on the shitbox one x so a lttel bit ironic my friend

oh and pc are our beta tester for new patches on this way we get them later :rofl::stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Good for you, it’s still immature and trolling to name the consoles as you did, I think it’s best to drop the matter and move on please.
