PC players need to shut it

@TuxTart116 I’m just curious so don’t bite my head off but have you tried to play without aim assist? Just curious because I can’t test it myself. I’ve seen the option in the controller settings to deactivate it.

Maybe try mouse and keyboard as well to see what ppl are upset about.

Ive only read articles about the impact of aim assist in crossplay myself and don’t own a console.

I know it took me a lot of time to tweak my sensitivity and other settings without the help of a software like aim assist. It takes a fair bit of effort.

@d0JuTsu No, I didnt realize you could turn it off, its always beeen something unnoticeable 

The forced cross play is the reason why Apex Legends started to become more and more frustrating for me. I already have to deal with absolute professionals who don't miss a single shot. I don't need the average player to do the same. Every match I play nowadays only has the purpose to progress the battle pass, collecting treasure packs and completing challenges for ongoing LTM's. The enjoyment of playing has ever since started to move more and more into the background.

I am still an average player. Not a professional. Treat me like one. And don't put me together with people who clearly have aim assist or a much higher skill than me.

@Peri_Longbow_plz This is my issue with PC players is when they come and attack console players simply because they have a little thing that barely even works given the movement against PC players, If you had the same everything in a 1v1, guess who'd land more shots? PC guaranteed.

@BrokenCompile aight now im curios did you actually 1v1?

@Peri_Longbow_plz Fair enough

@d0JuTsu I just tried it both ways with m/k and without aim assist, keyboard felt way nicer, alot easier to move had one of the best matches of my life, Controller without aim assist I did the same without it, I got a few kills a decent amount of damage, it was a little harder to read players movement, but other than that felt the same

I play with both controller and mouse on PC.

The whole argument and discussion around that controller players with Target Compensation outplays MK and that it should be removed or crossplay removed seems fake to me.

It seems to come from players that struggle with the game and get outplayed a lot. I won't be surprised if they even transfer their frustration of being outplayed by MK players onto controller players and have controller players as their "punching bag" to release game-frustration onto. Instead of blaming themselves, it's much more comfortable to their ego to blame another group of players and the differences in control mechanics attached to that.

What's interesting and a point that should be made is that whenever a console player wants to be able to use mouse+keyboard on their console there is uproar because this is considered OP.

I play with both controller and mouse+keyboard and mouse is superior at range and there is no way controller is able to control the recoil and track the way a mouse does.

Especially with high recoil weapons, like the Havoc, the mouse is superior to a controller when controlling recoil and tracking. And on top of that you can have the insane levels of mouse sensitivity that generally makes your gameplay much faster than a controller. Respawn don't seem to want to increase the max sensitivity on controllers though.

Horizontal recoil especially is generally almost gone with a mouse, but with a controller it drifts easily. This is because a mouse is placed steadily on a table while a stick is constantly in movement and has acceleration to it as well. The first thing you do when playing with a mouse is turning off acceleration.

At mid-range to longer range there is a huge difference in accuracy and I am able to laser down players, but with a controller I don't have that level of stability and tracking control and miss much more. At close range Target Compensation can also ruin it for me because the slowdown is too slow, maxing out stick movement and missing.
