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

One thing that the Pndhawk mode has proven is that aim assist, and snap aim is way overpowered, and needs to be nerfed.   As a long time BF player, it is blatantly obvious that you sold us out to get...

Without PC players lobbies wouldn't fill up. 

Last gen servers fill up everyday without PC.

And due to a matchmaking bug awhile back PC players could only join 64p queues.  Console players could only join 128p queues.  I noticed no change in matchmaking times.

No, I'm sorry your wrong. Every morning when I log in 128 player server hardly fills. Then it fluctuates players leave new players join. This is with cross-platform play on. With cross-platform play off there are some circumstance when games would fill, but they don't stay full all day.

Don't give into EA and Dice, by putting a band aide fix on cross-platform play. By, just saying let's have PC players with PC and console with console players. EA and Dice can fix the problems between the different engines people are playing on. It just needs time and work. Future BF titles will have cross-platform play as with every other single, highly known game that comes out.

    If off peak times / low pop regions / low pop game modes are your concern then I think the better solution is to only enable crossplay when needed to fill servers in a reasonable time. 

    But where do we draw the line at compromises made in the name of matchmaking?

    If last gen players start complaining about dying servers should we then downgrade all servers to 20Hz to accommodate them?

    To support low pop regions should DICE officially open up the servers to out of regions players?

    There's no right answers there, everyone is going to draw their personal line of matchmaking quality vs queue time.

      Aim assist is:

      Snap to target

      Crosshair slowdown over target

      Auto tracking of target (rotational)

      25% recoil reduction

      Spread reduction

      Bullet magnetism (bullets hit target even though you miss)

      I'm not sure how many aim assists BF2042 is currently using. I think 4 out of 6 on the list.

        @OskooI_007 I think you're right about it being 4 out of the 6.
