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 have aim assist turned up to max and Im still terrible, so I wouldnt get too worked up if I were you. We console players still get destroyed by pc players anyhow.

That's not been my experience, more the opposite. !
Different experiences. More likely for me to get killed by PCs than consoles, all else being equal.
I suppose only DICE/EA will have a firm answer to platform unbalancing when they review their play-data.
I will continue to reiterate that most of my deaths (by considerable margin) are to console players. Time and time again they will win a close quarters engagement where they only started shooting when they hit about 12hp. One console player shot me through a solid wall. Others were clearly tracking me through walls. Another was capping headshots only with the M16, and continually knew my precise location when all other enemies did not. Those M16 instakills are clear evidence of not only an aimbot, but the reduced recoil these players have. He was firing it burst mode and landing every single shot.
Console snipers, right down to single digit rank, hit you in the head 90% of the time with any sniper rifle, regardless of movement or if they're being shot. One with a DM7 was being hit by Avancys fire and still managed to instantly take my head off. Its abundantly clear something is severely off.
I don't doubt your experience. What you're describing sounds more though like outright cheating than what's due to aim-assist. I've had (and still have) similar issues on BFV playing also on console.
Pretty obvious by the video shown that the aim assist is beyond silly
Wish I had this super 'aimbot' aim assist on me PS5 would stop getting wrecked 4/1 by the avearge PC
