Re: Split Aim Assist Users To Their Own Servers - APEX PC

@MoNosDirtyGamingIt's below the original tweet.
But still, you still need to aim with controller, plus M & K will have an advantage regardless over controller.
1. You can actually flick. Flicking on console a waste of time, because you don't have that level of control in the joystick.
2. Movement. Unless you have an expensive controller with paddles, movement is much, much more difficult on console because console doesn't have as much customization. (normally.)
Those two things are essential parts of any FPS game.

Edit: Just scrolled up and found a third one.

3. Spamming the shoot button. More difficult on controller due to lack of customization, and most controllers require your finger to actually sink down like half an inch before it really registers,  but M & K can use a tiny bit of pressure on their mouse and it'll fire.

4. PC also has easier access to third party software like crosshair overlays.

    @Sir_Named I just find it a joke trying to say aim assist with a controller is advantageous, all it does is just reduce the sensitivity when aiming near an enemy. Baffles me how people think its unfair lmao

    @MoNosDirtyGamingHere's a video showing some dude explaining how he abuses aim assist, for accuracy and no recoil 'by slightly holding the stick down' That's all it takes on a controller.

    You can't do that as easily on a mouse because you 'have to track' as you shoot, along with compensate for recoil.
    Also, you can clearly see aim assist tracking for you, and he explains how he abuses it by moving left and right very quickly to get it to help him aim easier.

    (Edit because I forgot the link, lol)
