Aim assist gone in BF2042?

Since the 4.0 update, things have gotten even worse with Aim Assist on PC. They've improved mouse control, but the controller on PC feels laggy and imprecise. There is no noticeable slowdown over enemies and it is impossible to stay on target at a distance. For me as a PC player using a controller, it's no longer possible to compete against mouse and keyboard. So it's become unplayable because the difference just isn't fair anymore.
Aim assist has only ever worked in close to mid range. I don't believe I've ever seen an aim assist function at sniper ranges.
BF2042 does have aim assist, but it is tuned poorly. The slowdown box is larger than the character model.
SMK has a great video demonstrating:
This is especially noticable for anyone using the default (low) sensivity and 100% slow down 'assist'. This issue alone has probably driven away a good number of players.
This issue also affects vertical recoil control. Sustained fire with something like the LCMG is quite difficult to control smoothly. A slight pull down on the stick is mostly filtered out by the slowdown assist. You can't keep up with the vertical recoil so you add more input. Eventually you add enough vertical input that the crosshairs 'snap' through the assist. Your previously excessive input now gets fully registered and you are now aimung below the target. This nothing, nothing, nothing, EVERYTHING approach to vertical recoil control is frustrating.
Make sure you turn Uniform soldier aiming On
I am playing since lunch on console and I think the Aim assist is slightly got better with new update . The didnt mention , maybe they fix some setting about aiming stuff
Great video. In same things (circle around player) works all PC cheats. Do you want stronger cheat in Battlefield 2042? Cheating not allowed. All console players will be reported!
This thread was last active in April 2022 so I'm going to close it.
