Re: (PC) 70-80% Diamond-Master are controller players

@audiofilomx What iLootGames doesn't tell you is that respawn have been testing/modifying aim assist on console between season 1 - 3 (from what I recall), how do I know this? Because some games you couldn't aim to save your life, the game didn't feel fluid, it wasn't smooth.

I have played on both PC and PS4. What I can tell you is that aim assist has to be stronger on console due to the limitations of the console. Using a controller on PC told me that it was not as smooth as using it on controller, not because of aim assist but because it just felt "weird" i.e not smooth, didn't feel right etc.

Is so stressful to play against controllers; must of them have bad movement, bad plays, and still one clip you only because aim assist do 40% of the Aiming according to Ilootgames.

So if they are as bad as you say they are, what's the issue with you not beaming them first? Perhaps they are just better? That should be something to consider my friend. 

Aim assist needs to be removed on Ranked PC and Tourneys or at least tuned down way too hard

The issue you are not seeing here is that, say that this is a thing now, controller players would have to get used to two different games completely, one with aim assist and one with a lack of aim assist, it just wouldn't feel right and would give controller players a heavy disadvantage no matter how you look at it. 

At the end of the day this will always be an issue because you can't please everybody. I personally do not think that aim assist should be touched or modified.

    @MoNosDirtyGaming No controller player is better than a m/k for the simple reason that controllers have aim assist, weak or strong they're having help to aim that m/k doesn't have, have you ever played on mouse at higher ranks? Sure you can beam controllers players but only if you got them from behind, once aim assist is on you, they will never miss a shot even if you strafe so hard, i use to be predator season 2 and 3 and master season 4, i can deal with other m/k predators, they can miss if your strafing is good, but controller players don't, even the bad ones, i tried controller too, you can feel the aim assist pulling your aim so hard, the video on reddit is mine, you can't imagine have 1700 hours of m/k on apex, reach the higher ranks for 3 seasons and then see how controller players are switching pc and dominating with bad movement, bad strategies, but godlike aim, but don't believe me, ask imperialhal, Albralelie, liquid, Sentinels, etc, all of them complained so hard on aim assist, and agree that should be nerfed so hard.

    I have not played m&k at higher ranks due to playing on PS4 mostly.

    I do believe what you are saying but the issue is that if aim assist is adjusted apex wouldn't feel like apex anymore to controller players. As others have suggested on the forum, aim assist works best at close range.

    Controller on apex via PC is not ported very well if you didn't know. Due to this I believe if it was adjusted it would make it very difficult for controller players on PC to keep up. Regardless of the outcome of this discussion; pc/controller players will always try to suggest the other is broken.

    @MoNosDirtyGaming Even Snip3down one of the Best controller players on PC, said that aim assist on PC is too strong and he wouldn't mind if they tuned down.
  • @audiofilomx Pro players wouldn't mind a lot of things as they could easily adjust but it heavily depends on the average controller player, would they still be able to hit things? I don't believe so.

    mate you are an absolutely cry baby. play controller if its that good. what rubbish. 

    it literally just slows you down, there is no locking or anything like that. if it locked on then every pro would use it. kbm still dominates with a sprinkle of stud controller players. harden up jesus

    @audiofilomxAim assist is way overrated... I have been playing since season 0 on ps4 everyday many hours a day and many times I still empty a WHOLE charger beside a non moving player. My movement is getting better and most of the time I can avoid bullets so that means aim assist doesnt help them either. Learn how to move better and target cheaters not honest players. Btw most console player DONT play on PC lobbys... those who do are probably the best who don't mind because they dominate any platform they play. All my console friends don't play on PC lobbys and no one feels they do better on a PC lobby quite the opposite.

    @Palette24caratsHonestly aim assist is only broken with smgs like the volt and R-99 (im assuming because of the fast fire rate) most other guns are terrible to use on controllers especially shotguns unless you just hitfire which is funny because when I do play on mouse and key Im actually decent with shotguns and won a game as kill leader with eva 8 a few times because its so much easier to precisely land your shots on mnk

    @audiofilomx as an ex controller player, this is the funniest thing i’ve ever seen. you do know that aim assist doesn’t eliminate recoil right? if you’re scared of someone even LOOKING in your direction you’re just bad. i hope you grew up since this post bruh.
