@ZRuff46 The aim assist in Call of Duty is overpowering and feels like it is yanking and pulling my aim all over the place. I don't want that either.

Every time that I see a topic like this it seems to me that there are people on both sides (console and PC) that do not respect the time put in for someone to become efficient playing shooters with their chosen input device.

Getting headshots with a controller in this game still requires the player to aim.

Don't let the constant back and forth bickering on these boards about this lead you to thinking that crossplay is a failure. If it were then we all would have turned it off a long time ago.

@Skill4Reel It is a failure. Unfortunately there's no way around it at this point. You ever turn off crossplay and find a match often? No you most likely didn't. It's almost impossible to find a match without crossplay on. A lot of people want crossplay gone but when they try to turn it off, they can't find a match so they turn it back on so they can play. They need to just remove crossplay between console and pc that way its fair across the board and people can actually have fun with that game. There's plenty of people playing now so we don't need crossplay

      It is the crossplay netcode. At first I thought it was AA, but Console players have the same issues when they encounter PC players. What is happening is both sides are experiencing two different situations at the same time. 

      When a Console player kills a PC player, it feels normal, but on the PC side, they are insta-killed and it feels like an aimbot.

      The netcode, 45Hz tick rate servers, lag comp, etc are sooooo bad, none of us are playing the same game.

        I’m on console but I’m only using the first aim assist option - the one where your crosshair slows down when on an enemy.

        Through testing I found I got the same result each round whether snap-to-enemy aim assist was on or off.

        Then I thought I might as well just turn it off (Others may feel a need for it and that’s fine with me)

        The slow down crosshair option is necessary for me, otherwise it’s too difficult for me to hit enemies that are at a distance.

        - This just to say it’s not all of us console players that use full aim assist.
