AIM ASSIST IS TOO STRONG
Controller players. The current state of Aim Assist is awful, its ABSOLUTELY an advantage to play on controller in the late stages of the game, or during any close range engagement. I see the Issue ...
Forum Discussion
Thats definitely unfair towards others that are using legit controllers. But still KBM is superior when it comes to gunplay type games like Apex. Maybe itll help you alot against pc players but any person whos proficient with kbm will outgun them. Movement is horrible with a controller so you will have to rely on perfect accuracy to compete with a kbm person.

The only way to counter aim assist is strafing so hard and hit all your shots to mess with aim assist, but you know how you reach that level? With thousands of hours, have you tried to play a full day with m/K you will have wrist pain and your arm will feel so tired that you will not keep gaming,(i only can play maximum 8 hours in a good day i always play like 3 or 4 hours and not daily), with controller that's not the case, i can play even longer without any repercussions. M/k is way more demanding in everything that's why is so frustrating that some random guy that it's not even trying can beam you only because devs gives him an aim assist so strong that can tracks you perfectly.
Aim assist will respond to enemies movement with 0ms delay while m/k are humans and only have human reactions 140-240ms.
Aim assist follow enemies with that 0ms delay and m/k players need to predict movement, if fails, you will miss half of your magazine.

Aim assist is not aimbot. Aim assist only slows your ads down near your target, AA is incredibly weak in apex. Try arguing with people playing warzone, thats OP classic aim assist. The only reason I play this is because this game focuses heavily on your aim and mechanical skills
- @nvstrike not only slowdown while aiming on a target, that's the reason why everyone is complaining, take some time to see this clip please

This is on PC, aim assist tracks people, that's is not just an slowdown, that's the reason why this thread exists, if only was just an slowdown no one would complain about it, but no, literally locks on enemies softly, obviously is not an aimbot, but for sure, that autotracking feature is way too broken- @audiofilomx I didn't say aim assist doesn't help, it's the only way controller can even imagine to compete with a mouse. I did say however that controllers have no advantage whatsoever against m+k, which was a wrong exaggeration.
Perhaps I should rephrase to controllers can have a few advantages, but are greatly outshined in most instances by a mouse.
Where did you find the 40% controller usage statistic? I couldn't find any source on the matter. It is impressive for sure, I would have guessed it doesn't even reach 5% (again, no source, it's an educated guess at best.) Still, even if 40% is the true number, that's nowhere near close to prevalent input method. It does show that aim assist is much stronger than I give it credit for however.
M+k has a higher skill ceiling than controller. Aim assist can only get you so far.
@nvstrike Maybe try taking the point into consideration instead of puking the same tired * "but controllers are at such a disadvantage with everything else". Then choose a different input method nerd. Controllers and aim assist are fine on consoles where they belong. I want to play Apex with a Super Scope on PC. Should respawn give me whatever advantage I need to overcome that unit's deficiencies? Of course not. You would tell me, use m/k, git gud. So I say to you, NO AIM ASSIST, git gud.
- @SacrificialSloth Imagine being such a bot and losing to controller players. Get better lil bud, maybe youll hit your shots one day!
Yaw pitch and speed, never talk in a forum again. I played with a controller and I have 300 hours on mouse and keyboard, memorizing recoil, flicking, all of the caboose. Plugged in a controller and got my first 20 bomb.
