PC movement

I still don't understand how Aim Assist for controllers is too OP but movement on mouse and Keyboard isn't?

Movement is player input based. AA is automatic. Thats the difference. High skilled movement doesnt happen by accident or randomly but AA can make you kill someone without you actually being in control (even if its hard to admit or even be aware of it). We all saw what happened on the edge of Bangalore smoke to top ranked pros on controllers, when their AA was totally disabled. They literally became bronze players, just swiping left and right randomly with their crosshair. Granted, the disabled AA probably threw them off but it still says something about how OP and "positively interfering" AA is.

And just like it should be, Apex is balanced based on the highest ELO and not based on us casual gamers. And pretty much every ALGS pro says that controller is superior due to AA. So personally, I find it rather ridiculus to be upset over AA as a casual player, like me grinding in diamond for instance. But I understand the design choice for PRO skille level

I think anyone would agree that the PC movement is silly in this game and no respectable game is going to allow people to do the kinds of things you can macro together in this game. It's definitely frustrating when you come up against someone that is doing ariel acrobats that are impossible in a gun fight.
