PC using controller aim assist vs Xbox/PS5 aim assist

Is it me or does it feel like when you use a controller on pc it doesnt feel like it has any aim assist but on a console it does? Am I going crazy?

    No.  There is a variable in the coding for aim assist.  On PC that value is .4, and on console it is .6.  Console has stronger aim assist than PC, with lower FPS being the reason given.

@BaldWraithSimp I know you're kinda joking, but that line of thinking goes south fast. One poster once argued with me that scuf controllers should not be allowed because the default PS4 controller doesn't have paddles. My reply, following his logic, was that I have a crappy TV, so no one else should be allowed to use a better one, giving them an unfair advantage over me.

Honestly, my argument is that I don't think there is much of a competitive advantage running higher than 60fps, anyway... I would happily lock my fps to 60 if I could get console strength aim assist!

    Hello @DanteDrops,
