Re: Aim Assist

While I know aim assist doesn't let people lock onto targets and whatnot, I do want the option to opt out of crossplay, because so many of my games are filled with strikepack console players. 9 times out of 10, a console player is using some sort of mod, like strikepacks. I'm running into console players who don't even aim at you, and their bullets curve to hit, or you go behind cover, and they can still hit you. Sure PC players can sometimes still hit you behind cover, but most of the time, its a console player who's doing it. I just had a game where we just landed, I picked up golden armor, and a console Bloodhound just picked up a Wingman, and without having to even aim, they were just pulling the trigger, and their strikepack or whatever they were using guided the Wingman to where I was, no matter where I went, what I hid behind, etc. I managed to shield up once, and looking at the death recap, it was like 2 body shots, 1 head shot, 2 body shots, from the Wingman, and the guy was firing it like it was a P2020 for 3 of the shots, with the other 2 hitting me behind cover.

I'm getting sick and tired of cheaters, smurphs, and non-legit console players, and while the game still had an issue pre-crossplay, it was nowhere near this bad when we weren't forced into the same lobby. Now its just, everytime you see a PC player, with two of them on console, you pretty much have to assume they're all voice chatting with their cheats, strikepacks, xim, etc. all enabled. Most of the time, its a PC player cheating, with the consoles playing dumb until the PC player gets knocked, and then the strikepack gets switched on, sometimes its the console players cheating from the start, with the PC player being the one to switch it on when they get knocked, and very rarely, its a legit squad that isn't using any kind of modifications or cheats.

Also, cross-play and aim assist isn't exactly to blame, its more or less the players who abuse it and go unchecked. I just wish EA/Respawn cared enough to put in a little more effort or something. Afterall, Hideouts can't be the soul person to deal with the cheaters.
