The aim assist in this game is far too strong on console, I can aim down sights and scan an area and feel where enemies are just by the aim assist slow down.
Enemies can be behind hills, behind cover, in buildings I don't even need to be able to see them I can feel exactly where enemies are just using the aim assist.
I can't remember playing any game since GTA 5 what had such lock on like this.
Tone it down EA.... a LOT.
This happened me today, I reported a guy for cheating for just knowing I was there, then I realize he was a console player) And googled this. I heard about this earlier about they can feel that their aim slows down, he just went out from his cover and killed me when I was sneaking up on him (I used a drone to pin point his location)
He killed me twice using this tactic which is very unfair. At first I was thinking he was using ESP since first time he shoot like crazy through a bush but missed a few shoots then jumped out and made the final kill. Second time he was behind an another cover and I am pretty sure I was not spotted (no drones, no nothing)
It is useless if you can't use tactics like sneaking up to players when they are behind their covers and can just use their ADS to scan for other players.
"It's a slow down, but it feels more like something is slowly pulling my reticle".
So which is it, a slowdown or a pulling of the reticle? If it's a slowdown, I don't personally have a problem with that. However, if it's pulling your reticle to be on-target, then I do have a problem because that (IMO) turns aim assist into an aim-bot. You could literally leave your thumb off of the controller stick in a choke point and annihilate enemy coming through that choke point....whether you are close or far from the action.
The real problem is that you'd only have to watch for your reticle start to move and then just start firing. This is unfair to players without this ability (ie; MNK).
They need to take away the 25% less recoil from it but also this desync is so horrible. Love watching my shots not registering and they get killed. It's like console have 1-2 advantage on the servers
FYI, ESP is not possible on console. That's a PC thing. Aimbot is not possible on console either except for with a expensive video capture and controller piggyback system, a PC, and AI software to interpret the data. Even then, it is limited by what can be seen on screen. That's why ESP and aimbot are a PC thing; due to price, ease of implementation, and capability.
BF6 giving aim assist slowdown through objects is bad implementation.
