  • It’s happening on ps4 as well, if your sensitivity isn’t on default 3:3 then you will have barely any aim assist.

    Hey @emcosmo

    There was an issue yesterday that was causing problems with aim assist on console. An update went out that should have helped. Is this still happening now? 

  • Yes @EA_Kent ,I normally play on Look Sensitivity of 5 and a ADS of 4. The higher you make your sense the less aim assist you have. At range there’s barely any aim assist and is impossible to hit anything and is practically raw input. I don’t use alcs and I play on classic. If you go into the firing range you can notice that the aim assist is different between sensitivities.
