Using the pattern

The site GiantBomb describes three different types of Auto-Aim: Reticule Magnetism, Bullet Magnetism, and Lock-on.

Reticule Magnetism When the player points the reticule near an enemy, it automatically pulls towards the enemy, closing the aim:fire ratio gap.

Bullet Magnetism When the player fires while aiming near enough to an enemy, the bullets will go straight to the enemy instead of where aimed. The aiming reticule is not moved.
