TLDR: Pc controller aim assist % needs to be lowered and next gen consoles should match the lowered pc controller aim assist.
After fiddling around by turning aim assist off on controller pc, I've come to a couple conclusions. One is that no aim assist is impossible on controller without nuking your sensitivity into the ground (not extremely viable). Two is that .40 for pc controllers is still too high. I came from console last season, and managed to adapt from .60 to .40 fairly quickly. However .40 still gives you an insane advantage in close range fights (where a majority of fights take place). Fov settings also seem to influence how hard your aim magnetizes onto an enemy, with 90 and below making you have to fight your controller to get your reticle off an enemy (on pc and console controllers). Midrange and far range go to the mouse for sure, especially with single fire/semiauto weapons, but it's minor advantage, while close range is a moderate to huge advantage for controller (depending if its .40, or .60). I think most controller players would be able to adapt to a weaker aim assist, especially if it came with benefits (like being able to shield swap while moving).
@TinyTim6991Aim assist is just too random, one min its lock on aimbot and the next min I feel like my sensitivity has gone through the roof... switching over to linear did help though with being able to control your aim more precisely like sofar said, in the end I just want to be assisted, it dosnt have to be aim bot but it shouldn’t feel like its not there at all either just some fine tune adjustments to where its always there vs whenever it wants to be
I usually only have 1-3 good games out of like 20 I play so I don’t really feel like aim assist needs to be nerfed majorly on pc but it shouldn’t be lock on aim bot whenever it wants to be either
Somedays I can get online and get win after win and other days die within 20 seconds of landing every match, but Ive also had alot of server lag... like sometimes the whole screen just starts shaking randomly or yesterday everything just practically froze and the gunfight was so awkward because nobody could move lol, other than that i dont have any lag anywhere on the map except near the waterfall on top of that one area and the sound just gets muted around that area above and below it
