I don't know if aim assist is the same on console but on PC aim assist will lock on target and then follow it, aim assist not only slows down your aim, tracks the enemy softly too, that feature is helping a LOT to controller players that instead of predicting movement like M/K with average response time of 130-200ms, the aim assist will track for you with 0ms of response time, that's the primary advantage of aim assist over m/k, that's why there's a lot of Controller players on top 500 Preds, and that's why PC Pro Players complain hardly about Aim assist.

With crossplay enable, it needs to be removed at least on Rankeds and tournaments.

For everyone complaining about aim assist , there’s an option to turn it off it you don’t like it.
just cos you don’t like that it’s implementation in apex doesn’t mean everyone who plays wants it removed , you have the option.

@ianix145 You’re either a bot or a troll and I don’t know which. Mouse and keyboard input is playing without aim assist. Aim assistance is unfair to the players inside of Apex Legends without aim assistance. Let’s put it this way, having in-game software aiming for you is called aim assistance. Mouse and keyboard would like a game where a software does not aim for players. Players should have to aim themselves. Having a software aim for you is bad.

Excuse me...The mouse and keyboard are not supported by aim assist...

And the controller is in a situation that requires a aim assist due to its nature, but it is a problem because the power of the current aim assist is strong...

Please be familiar with the game and the current situation of the problem and talk...
