@E9ine_AC Part of the issue is that we're console players fighting against console players and we don't see any of the situations that the PC crowd brings up.
Tracking through smoke? I can't do that and my team can't. Enemies can't seem to track us through smoke yet PC claims AA gives us the ability to do this easily.
Auto tracking on hipfire? Who even hipfires unless they're trying to dodge shots? Not sure if that's true since ADS is far superior.
Also PC has always had issues with modders and hacks or people on PC exploiting the systems to get AA for M/KB.
It's far more likely that you're getting beat by modders/hackers/better players than aim assist so it's hard to take these arguments seriously.
Plus both the PC and Console crowd exaggerate what the other side can do so it all sounds like lies to me.

@Zamaha400Hip fire is the most underrated thing. I got roughly 14k games played. I would honestly say a good 30% of my kills in these games are pure hip fire. We are not confusing it with anything when the video is proof for all to see and most have seen.
Perhaps you should put in more games to know..This is not me saying I'm better then you because I got xxx amount of games played. This is me saying I have played enough games I have spectated enough people to know the difference.
Now if you could kindly watch this video and see its in none of our heads it is no lie. You simply just have zero idea.

@E9ine_AC Oh I've seen that video and my first response was "Wow aim assist is insane for controllers on PC." This was discussed in a massive thread before crossplay was added.
A similar video was produced showing aim assist on consoles being significantly weaker. If both videos were real then it explains why console players and PC players disagree so strongly on AA. It's a different beast on PC.
Following that posters claimed the strength of AA was 60% on the PS4 while only 40% on PC which conflicted with both videos.
I believe what you say about AA being insane but maintain that's only for PC controller users not Console. Even some of the comments in that video mention how AA is weaker on consoles.

"Who even hipfires unless they're trying to dodge shots?"
Anyone using a lmg, hemlock or wingman.

@Irres169 I honestly forgot about the hemlock so you got me with that one. That gun is devastatingly effective no matter how you fire it.
@Acumental Im not disagreeing with the 60% thing only pointing out that it conflicted with what was shown in both of the videos I watched.
#1. There's a possibility that console players are so used to AA that they don't notice how strong it is.
#2. There's a possibility that PC players are whining about a feature that they're unfamiliar with but see as a cheat.
Given how often players call something op and how rampant cheating has been on PC I'm willing to bet on #2.
