So you're telling me a controller with aim assist beats a keyboard with a variety of DPI and 101 keys? I've played on PC before, it still feels awkward as hell trying to fight. It is a little "off" when you use a controller on PC because it wasn't really made for PC like you said.
You have little to no recoil, powerful tracking, and extremely easier headshot potential.

@4ccbf460f7b926b1Wrong, wrong, wrong.
Do you know what aim assist actually does brother? This game is not like fortnite or any other game which has aim assist. In the most simplest of terms, all aim assist does is SLIGHTLY slow down your aim when you are aiming around the radius of an enemy. However, It is strongly visible when you are aiming at a downed enemy with their shield up and you have to force your controller away from them (which happens on console a lot).
Don't take my word for it, here is another example I've found.

And further down I saw some short clips of people snapping to target using controller. Thanks for the evidence proving my point.- 6 years ago
@4ccbf460f7b926b1I've played on pc, no it isn't. It feels a lot more weird to use controller on pc than it is on a console. What you are referring to is a xim controller. That is what a lot of cheaters are using to aimbot players in the head and snap to targets. Don't get aim assist and cheaters confused.
Respawn has not had an announcement for cheaters since the release of the game, a lot of cheaters still persist. Controller does not affect recoil whatsoever, the video you also saw in that link was a pc player on controller. Cheating is the issue and until that is addressed you will not find justice in playing apex.
Send me the link of this particular video you talk about? Surely you can find it again, because I highly doubt it has anything to do with aim assist because it does NOT affect the game whatsoever apart from slowing your sensitivity down when near an enemy.
