Aim assist
Is aim assist inexistent only on Xbox? I don't see many commenting, as most of the players seem to be from the PC. It's really hard for casual gamers to have a good experience without a aiming aid w...
Consoles don't need AA! They need mouse and keyboard support.
AA just ruins everything as you can see with Apex right now, either it's too weak or it's ridiculously strong.
If they are ever to allow M&K support on consoles, then using them should restrict users to having cross-play on.
The danger is people turning off cross-play and playing exclusively with console players. M&K is just hands down superior to controller.
Having no aim-assist for controllers is maybe fine in the level playing field of cross-play off. However, for cross-play on, aim assist is needed to try and balance out against M&K users.
Very, very few people can claim they are as good with a controller as they are a M&K, and I would personally argue that in those examples if the individual put more time into M&K they would quickly realise they can do even better.
Obviously the above applies to being on foot. When it comes to flying a helicopter or a jet, things change somewhat.
@Rabhimself1986It is funny the complaining about been at a disadvantage to pc players yet have quite happily in the past used xim etc to use mouse and keyboard against controller users.
Not saying you have but there have been alot of threads past 2 bf games about it.
People have different opinions on it clearly, but I think the majority believe the M&K definitely offers a significant advantage.
If you look at Rainbow Six Siege, for example, there is zero aim assist on that game for consoles by design. The developers actually consider it cheating if you use M&K on console because the advantage is recognised to be so strong.
It isn't even just aiming where the advantage lies, it's general movement and other interactions.
If any controller user is comfortable facing off M&K users then that is on them, power to them. However, if the default set-up on a system is for a controller, I personally don't agree with just allowing M&K implementation. As I suggest, if this is to happen on consoles then the M&K input should remove the option to disable cross-play. They should be forced to play with PC users (and console players comfortable with cross-play).
