Console Aim Assist Should Be The Same As PC, When Joining PC Servers.

Consoles shouldn't get extra aim assist. If people are unaware consoles have more aim assist then PC controller users. If a console player joins a PC lobby, they automatically get this extra a...

@B0n3SawMcSizzla Thanks for the info, I don’t know if that’s true, but even if it is, that’s yet another advantage for pc as they can have mice with trackerballs or finetune stuff to take advantage.

But let’s say that it’s true, console players still as cheeseman stated need to release grip of thumbstick for certain actions to be made while pc doesn’t if they have their hotkeys and inputs set up properly.

Having more neurons dedicated to one area makes it easier to have more precise movement, but it can also hamper the same thing. It’s just like how as babies or infants we have roughly half the amount more neurons than we do as adults cause they keep withering away allowing for better neural connection. That said, if you have more precise movement but the medium is still limited, it still won’t matter in the end xD

@gg123xyz that's good info about PS5 controllers. PS4 controllers don't work on PC. I was thinking I would get an XBOX one to replace my Steel Series Stratus.

@Koochi-Q That's a good point with the trackball. That guy could be full of it about neurons. Everybody I have seen try to switch from mouse to trackball went back to mouse. I wouldn't play with mouse on the highest sensitivity so thumbsticks should get some advantage. Probably above a certain skill level the extra aim assist can be leveraged better though.

@B0n3SawMcSizzla Exactly what I see. The top level players like to talk about switching but do it for a bit then go back. The latest I heard was hal was talking about doing hybrid. Late game he would switch to a controller for that final circle.

I am not sure where you are getting your info on PS4 controllers, but I use them on both steam and origins just fine. I play and get owned on pc for it pretty regularly. I have tried mkb and it just feels like more work myself.

I USE A 9 FOOT USBC CABLE I BOUGHT FROM WALMART.
having a extended left thumb stick helps. the controller skin may be slippery at first but eventually its nice.

  @gg123xyz Maybe wired is the way to go and I can use one of my PS4 controllers. I don't use Steam for Apex though and am not trying to get banned for playing with a input device driver that I don't know about.

@B0n3SawMcSizzla Yeah PS4 controllers work on PC. I've seen Zeus use his.
