Snap Tracking at it's Best!
There are some real good examples of that snap tracking buff in here. The one I've keyed to even shows some tracking through the wall and the person saying it's not me that's aim assist. Awesome!

Nothing brings me more joy then to bring these fineee features to light. I'm sure we can all agree this is obviously out performing their wildest dreams. Certainly the data will be a great boon for the next BF game.

- @SnubbyFighter As sure as night follows day there's more to that performance than aim-assist. Far more.
- @ATFGunr It's 100% built-in aim assist for controllers now. It's completely insane. There are some videos showing the tolerances of it and the distance it attracts onto targets is massive. Like, "ADSing in someone's general direction" massive. It only goes to the body though, so that makes it perfect for shotguns like that.
DMRs, particularly the G428 are even a bit overtuned with it, imo. Two shots to body to kill and with the aim assist you essentially can't miss so you can just spam shots with confidence. DICE really needs to do something about it with the DMRs in particular, maybe make it much weaker or something. - @Agent10_Alex If you play the game on GamePass you will show up as being on Xbox in-game (even though it launches through EA Play). You can use a controller on PC to get aim assist too. So, likely playing with GamePass and using a controller on pc.
Thanks for the clarification, I didn't know that

The control methods for fast paced action are not equal. They are so vastly different that balancing them is very hard, if not impossible. We can come to an acceptable compromise, but people of different skill levels will suffer or find sweet spot that ruins the others experience.
Anything that automatically aims for you is very bad and directly harms the competitive aspect of the game.
Looks like they went down the same communist route as CoD, the end of true and fair competition by equalizing the outcome instead of equalizing opportunity.
The solution is simple, either officially support M+K and gyro for consoles or disable crossplay between controllers and M+K.

You can honestly thank every stubborn shidder controller player out there for making it sound like it's impossible to play on controller without aim assist. It still brings up the issue, I don't want to get auto aimed by controller players. It's not fair.
- @SVND0WN Yeah experienced the instant 2 tap with the G428 last night. They were at elevation right outside spawn and basically snap tracked the second you spawned. The whole thing is just hilariously unfun.
It's 150 ms for a sprinter to react to a starting gun. So initially 150 ms to push a button some aim down site time and snap to the target up to 6x scope. M&K is 150 ms to start moving the mouse to position + aim down site time. Sometimes you'll get good flicks, but never be as consistent as a controller assist at the push of a button. It can keep being done every 200 milliseconds, but spamming 3-4 times a target will degrade it. Obviously that's not enough so less recoil/sway and you're already dead after 2 bursts from most weapons.
Honestly though I don't think that's the worst result. I'm betting the real killer feature is assisting low visibility as long as it can see a smidge of your character model. Is that a player? Idk lets push a button and find out.
