aim assist 2024
hello this is a pro player status twitter : I have played 8 hours of M/K today after a hiatus of probably around 2 years and its safe to say I'd never permanently swap back unless they nerfed aim as...
Console player here:
The issue is forced crossplay. PC should have the ability to opt out of crossplay— the fact that they can’t is legitimately ridiculous.
I still think MnK is the superior input method overall, but you have to give people a CHOICE.
As it pertains to the pro scene, I don’t think the inputs should be mixed. Because TECHNICALLY you want the entire structure/tournament to measure skill as purely as possible. Aim assist is meant to assist players on controller to “keep up” with the superior input method (MnK); TECHNICALLY aim assist is an external entity thats working in conjunction with a controller players’ input and this detracts from measuring the absolute skill of everyone competing.
Well the OP is obviously just here to provoke a fight so putting that aside... @Axs5626Sxa5001 you're right. The game feels clunky to me so I don't mind if they tweak Aim Assist in any way. However the problem with AA won't go away so long as PC is forced into mixed lobbies. Even if they managed to perfectly balance the two inputs neither side will really agree.
For the sake simplicity the inputs should be separated so that skill and intelligence are the only deciding factors.
Dopamine and feeling of accomplisment. 🙂
When did we lose the fun in playing videogames and turned into dopamine addicts? Need to get the wins and multikill games to get that dopamine fix.
I want to play on MnK because I enjoy it and to me its fun. I have accepted the fact controller has its benefits.
Especially at this part of the season I find the competitive modes like ranked unfun because of only sweats.
Its still fun to hop on mixtape every other night to shoot around. Regardless of the aimassist or tapstrafe movement maniacs.
Gaming for casuals should be about having fun regardless of what other players do. School yard footie where the rules are bent is still fun in my memory. Even with changing rules.
In my opinion with the increase of controller players in comp/pro scene is the reason why viewership is going down. Game has become dull & calculated even on ALGS stage level. Everyone is roller demon going nuclear on my youtube feed. There is no personality behind roller plays. Another one clip with R99. Wow. So surprising.
Comp is also the reason why we get only small changes that dont draw enough players back to Apex. Its always some midseason etc so they cant bring in new bigger meta changes or maps because of the whining from these people whose job is to play a game * about having to adapt to the changes to be able to win millions of dollars. I mean really the nerve on these divas.
EA should just really shake the box with crazy ideas for the game and openly tell the divas to shut up & cope. Like add bloodhound ability to Paths zipline as it shoots out or buff the ship out of Mirage somehow. Now its almost every bloody team with the same 3 legends. Even in ranked which is just depressing from viewer perspective.
