@matzesingtI appreciate your logical take on this.
I only play Apex on controller. So yes my opinion is biased. I’ve played competitive FPS since 2006 (Halo). I played in semi-pro tournaments for Halo and CoD.
But I 10000% agree that in a competitive setting (Ranked or MLG/ALGS, or whatever lol) there should not be a group with aim assist vs a group without aim assist, regardless of input.
Don’t get me wrong, I am STILL
ONE MILLION percent convinced that MnK is the superior method for playing FPS games, even with aim assist present. I just think that there needs to be congruence in the inputs if there are rewards on the line.
Aim assist ABSOLUTELY detracts from competitive integrity if tournaments/lobbies are comprised of controller AND MnK players.
Honestly I think it’s up to the tournament organizers to separate inputs. Because companies (EA/Respawn) really don’t care competitive integrity; they want one population/pool so they can make matches as fast as possible within reason. Their ability to do this allows them to maximize profit margins, which is the ONLY GOAL.
