The Question of Aim Assist
Okay, I'm finally putting this here, because I am really, really at a loss. How powerful is the console aim assist? From my POV, it might as well be a legalised aimbot. Currently, I have to resort...
I've always played BF on PC since BF1942, I never really played much BF5 due primarily to Patrick Soderlund's comments.
BF1 was ok but just not my cup of tea so I was still mainly playing BF4 until BF2042, so this is my first real foray into the cross-platform experience and so far, it hasn't been a great experience and it doesn't appear to be working out very well.
Neither side of the PC vs. console debate is happy with the current situation it seems.
From a PC players perspective any sort of "aim-assist" is definitely not welcome in any FPS and console players seem to be of the mind that mouse and keyboard (as broken as the mouse input is right now) gives you some sort of god-like powers, I have not yet experienced these powers myself yet but yeah ok whatever.
Might be time to just call it quits on this whole cross-play experiment.

You may well be right mate, nobody seems happy with where we are at currently with cross-play.
My worry is, is there a large enough player base to fill servers without turning cross-play on.
