Can tap strafe get removed all together

Since recent changes can it just be removed all together it'd help console players since you are doing it to help new players.. also add back arenas. Miss it.. that's all. The time to kill needs to be faster too it feels like I'm shooting marshmallows with my R9 now

    Hey folks,

    While it's getting back on track, let's avoid turning this into another Aim Assist discussion as we do have plenty of threads for that conversation to take place. 

    For the sake of OP we can have one about tap strafing in particular as well, thanks! 🙂

  • @Zamaha400 Is it really a "unintended mechanics" since they had it in titanfall 1 & 2 tho ? it's more a feature than a bug at this point.
    it really looks like devs did it on purpose.

    @WTF_Huitzo Don't know. I do remember the Devs stating it so be an exploit that would be patched ages ago. However that might have been them trying to save face after the community started complaining and a number of videos started popping up that made the movement look ridiculous. As a console player I don't really care if it stays since that seems up to the PC community. Doesn't affect me? Not my problem.

  • @Zamaha400 most pc player never used any movement tech , it's mostly cheaters with maccro and often controller players.

    heck i didn't even realize tap strafe was a thing before s17 , then the mmr put me in pred lobbies everygame and i had to adapt.

    Hello.. prob last reply from me. I just want people to get along. I'm tired of the community being divided.. have to have the discussions though is all. I love you guys. Just try to be understanding of one another and I'm glad to see that. I do think tap strafing should be removed if controller players can't do it too. It just seems wrong. And if aim assist up close is a issue.. slight nerf would be fine. However I would appreciate a Aim assist buff for long range to maybe make controller and m and k more even. M and K has so much more range than controller unless your using a sniper. Idk. Have a good one just my thoughts on it. Both nerf and buff would probably be very slight on adjustment I hope.. edit. Many games do this well..... Bring up other weapons to match to maybe lower the time to kill as it is way to long it would help the game feel better to everyone. Can't do anything as a solo I feel anymore. I understand it's a team game. But like I said earlier it feels impossible to get badges nowadays.... I wish there was more also.. I really really wanted the 100 win streak badge in arenas but there were so many cheaters even than and it never got the attention it deserved.........

     

    2025 edit: Wooooo arenas backkk es get it. guns feel better even though there was a AA nerf. flinching got reduced, and its easier to use ranged weapons on controller now. threw me off on my sense for a bit but I got used to it. roadmap seems good. hope is back.
