Re: Thank you for PondHawk mode - it proves that aim assist is waaaaay overpowered

@Kona_ukSure, it's called aim assist haha. Seriously though, it's some code built into the game that helps you get onto a target and stay on target. By definition, they're the same. The difference is that one is controlled by the Devs, while a regular old aimbot is unregulated and hacks a game.

What do you mean "only one button click"?

My point is that people cheat with hardware on Consoles versus PC players having more options. Both are 100% cheating. The majority of cheaters don't rage hack anymore. You'll get caught pretty quickly. It's all about looking like a legit good gamer.

This is anecdotal, but I've had friends play on both PC and Console, and in many games they preferred playing on PC because on Console the game felt like it had more cheaters. Between aim assist, no recoil scripts, and the weirdness of Console networking, it felt worse to them.

That's true about the rage hack. But, there's one thing about cheaters that will always stick and that's greed. They will want the top spot everytime and all it takes is one person to report them and their done.

So, all those months or years of working on rank all gone in a blink of an eye. Cheaters will always get caught and they will slip up somewhere along the way.

You're absolutely right. Aim assist is a ashamed hypocritical synonym for aimbot.
