Re: Aim Assist Nerf

@markoon13 It wasn't a small group of M&K whiners, if they were going to listen to the community they would've nerfed aim assist 20 seasons ago. Aim assist was too strong, not according to me, or some streamer, or a person on YouTube, according to Respawn's data on encounters across the game.

As for movement and long-range, let me remind you that several of the best movement players in this game play on controller. And there are PLENTY of controller players that do amazing long-range. It's just a matter of getting better with a controller. You can't sit there and say "well just get better aim, don't cry" to M&K players, then cry about how hard controller is.

If you want to play with 100% aim assist, then play on console, against other console players. If you're playing in PC lobbies, you don't get to have aimbot levels of aim assist, which is what Respawn found collectively over 21 seasons of data.

@Nightstick24 Console doesn't have 100% aim assist. Well, maybe Xbox has, don't know.
And btw, if you want to play on MnK, do it in PC lobbies and keep out of console Mixtape, ty.

Your litterally cannot get into console lobbies as MnK unless you use a converter on console and PS doesnt allow that. How dumb are you ?

@TheDarkWaver Tell that to Mixtape players. And tell me you don't play Apex without telling me you don't play Apex.

@CCbathwater I mean you make just unfounded claims without any evidence that pc players would purposefully abuse a big to get into console lobbies…

The reality will be that they just end up there because there is a bug and all they did was click play…

@BallisticMVPToS:
"Use or distribute unauthorized software programs or tools (such as "auto", "macro", hack or cheat software), or use exploits, bugs or problems in an EA Service to gain unfair advantage."

I'd say MnK, which is prohibited on console Apex, Steam configs back when they were a thing, plus not getting capped at 60fps by Respawn, as we did, would be "gaining an unfair advantage".
Queueing up for Mixtape knowing there's a bug that could potentially put you in console Mixtape... well, I know how I interpret ToS. That's why I reported alot of them under this part of ToS. Then it's up to EA/Respawn whether or not they felt if ToS was violated.

Why do you even discuss ?
Only bcs of some patch note ?
Respawn said in the past changing the AA to a 0.3 value wouldnt solve the issue, but now its the solution ?!?
They also said it would take them years to make it right ...
DIdnt change the 0ms VRT on rotational AA, didnt reduce the aim slowdown.
I work in software dev and i can tell you its very common to just announce smth thats wasnt changed as changed and like a miracle ppl stop complaining just bcs it was said to be changed.
Sry, i dont fall for the cheap tricks ...
As long as there is no real life data to prove it was changed for the better, it didnt happen ... also most of the MnK players didnt want a nerf, they wanted to opt-out of AA lobbies.
A feature that exists for console players since S6, but wasnt an option to solve the issue once and for all ? "rules for thee but not for me !"

And also the fact they didnt adress the elephant in the room at all : MM , makes me think : they dont care what we want.

Should've done something with PC cheaters than nerfing aim thing. It's nearly impossible to play this against people who are using wall-hack and infinite health mods.
