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...

Its purpose it to create balance for controller players especially now that crossplay is a thing. So the only way we could prove its balanced or not is to look at the battlefield tracker weapon kills stats.

If its so overpowered as some think then if we look at say the top 100 players in the world then it should sway to controller players right? Ideally it should be 50/50 for it to be classed as balanced or fair.
So what are the facts.
PC=58
Console=42
So the stats show it's kind of close to being balanced but is still swayed towards PC players with a 60/40 split. You widen the pool number and the split grows not shrink. Now also consider that there are more console players then there are PC players. Plus we cant filter out the last gen players from the list who only play PS4 vs Xbox One. So the console players listed could almost be cut in half for the Next Gen console PS5/SX that would be playing against PC players.
So the split could end up being more closer too 70/30 or 80/20 with PC players being still the more dominate players. Controller vs M&K is not even closed to being balanced. A good controller player will beat a bad M and K player any day just as its true for a good PC player beating a bad console player. Both are a thing. You could list off so may advantages for PC, but all PC players can list off is one for controller AA.
So people can whinge and complain but facts don't care about their feelings.
Number of total kills means nothing other than those people have played more
Also someone on PC can play on controller
Perhaps if the aim assist was the consistent through out the game you could use these stats, but considering it has been broken until the last patch makes you theory void. please try agian. lets just call it what it is a crutch for console players.
