You don’t realise how bad controller looting is til you play in pc lobbies

I would weirdly prefer locking bouncing when looting.  It most of all looks absolutely stupid, and then, yes, if you are looting you should be vulnerable and stationary.  

Last time you went into a drawer, did you do squats while you were getting out your things?

You know what?  If you DO do squats when you open drawers, I would totally allow you to loot bounce.  But only if :D

Agreed. On MnK, I can just scroll down the wheel and pick everything up easily. On controller, I often ran up to an item, then started going backwards thinking I picked it up, only to realize it was still on the floor or in the supply crates, and had to run up to it again. Maybe I was not near enough, but even then, picking everything up is so much slower.

Totally true. I do wonder why Respawn hasn't updated this yet. I guess it's some type of limitation with Apex Legends middleware.

That's honestly brave of you for playing console Apex Legends on PC servers. With how the game runs on console, with forced textures, motion blur, anti-aliasing, model detail I just can't do it myself.

I honestly play the game on my PC with weaker hardware compared to my Xbox Series X, just because I get to change the graphical settings to my liking.

@MassiveVernonWe never realized how bad aim assist was until yall was in our lobby to see how much of a disadvantage we are at. Since the game has more shooting then it does looting. =P

@lightning_5oAll I can say is welcome to pc lobbies thats a risk you take entering our lobbies inferior loot mechanics. I have put quite a lot of hours and game into apex more then most in the world mind you. I know the difference of the 2 and what they bring to the table. We have no option to not play with console. Console can avoid our loot mechanics completely by not entering our lobbies. But how is it we go without having to play against consoles aim assist? We dont have a way we are forced.

I have never used a controller on pc and not used a controller on console in over 12 years. I picked up controller plugged into pc. Very first game i drop 3200 dmg and 11 kills with minimal effort. So if myself can have that outcome the very first time using controller on this game and in 12 years then that should say something. Imperial Hal also had the same exact outcome as i did. There are reasons us who put in 15k + games have our reasons for not wanting it.

@E9ine_AC“ I have never used a controller on pc and not used a controller on console in over 12 years. I picked up controller plugged into pc. Very first game i drop 3200 dmg and 11 kills with minimal effort. “

Yeah sorry but I don’t believe that in the slightest lol. I know from my time here that you’re very good at the game but you’re just making yourself sound a * by saying that . I don’t doubt that you could pick up a controller and still do well, because you are good at the game - but trying to make out you dropped 3.2k 11 kills with “minimal effort “ just because you used a Controller and that you haven’t touched one in 12 years ? Yeah that just makes the whole thing sound a lie .

Aim assist isn’t aimbot , it literally slows your reticle over an enemy slightly to compensate for the lack of accuracy a thumb stick has . Granted - it helps in close combat a lot more but again still requires you to be able to aim in the first place . You can’t make out has some massive pull or lock cause it just doesn’t otherwise I’d be able to run up to people and not even touch the right thumbstick after looking at them . And surely if aim assist was that good then all of us controller players would be getting ridiculously good matches ?

I started playing in pc lobbies 3 days ago and have had only a single win since lol. I’m not the best at the game but a bit above average with a kd of 2.4 and usually I get between 5-12 kills a game , and again since joining pc lobbies my kd has plummeted hard . Does that mean that it’s because my input puts me at a disadvantage? Nah I wouldn’t say so, I’d just say it seems most pc players seem to be better on the whole and/or I’m just having a bad streak .

And dropping names like imperial Hal doesn’t help you out mate. Just cause he’s a “pro” or whatever doesn’t suddenly make his opinion right . I’ve also played around 11k games but let me guess because I’m not a streamer or haven’t made it to pred I must just be talking * ?
Oh and Put me in a 1v1 against someone like him and guess what , he’d still win every single time because he’s better than me regardless of input methods .

This thread wasn’t supposed to be about this anyway but as you brought it up like that I couldn’t help myself . Idc what inputs people use , you’re either good with them or you’re not and getting killed by someone using a Controller doesn’t mean that it’s because aim assist done all the work . All that being said , I do agree with your first half of the comment about how you pc players don’t have a choice when it comes to crossplay . Matchmaking should always be input based to avoid stupid arguments like this .

In the end though , they both have pros and con but this was simply meant to be about having movement whilst looting on console .

QQ I got double tapped by a mastiff and now I am on the forums... (TLDR version of what you said) @E9ine_AC
