PC players...
Your aim doesn’t suck, you’re just getting merc’d by aim assist. What a plague in this game. Let PC players turn off cross play and disable controller aim assist for pc players EA.

@KarvaRausku This is clearly not true. In the last algs (1week ago) there was one team all using controllers (sf aim assist) and I think 2 other players including tsm snipedown. This would be 5 out of 60 players which is 8%. Even tsm imperialhal has used a controller in the algs but went back to mouse and keyboard. This is their living. If it gave a competitive edge they would take it. Seems pretty balanced. Just looking at stats would imply that mouse users have the advantage. Most pros play with a mouse. Most teams winning the comps play with a mouse. Most good players can 1 clip with mouse. If you get outplayed or the other player hits all their shots just deal with it. No one wins every fight. We all miss sometimes (most of the time in my case and I have aim assist!) and we all hit every shot sometimes.
Cross platform was attempted 10 odd years ago by microsoft BUT in the initial stages they threw it out because all the xbox pro players got merced by mid skill MKB players, thats why aim assist was developed in the first place.
The amount of artificial assistance on pads is insane but it has to be that way to keep it competative.
My only assumption is that like everything else, in time the controller players will become more skilled and the balance will break, i personally still dont think there is a particularly good balance between aim assist and mouse keyboard and more importantly i believe its something that will constantly need to be tweaked.
