Aim Assist/Console Players

"By far the best" I love absolutes from someone random opinion. lol

I say controller is by far NOT the best input, from having both, using both, and being over the age of 35. It's a mess on PS5 and I spend 20 minutes a day messing with it to feel AS GOOD as M&K.

So no, you can't fathom blaming yourself because it'll bruise your ego.

Me and you have completely opposite experiences my friend. Both me and my friend play on series X, and neither of us feel any aim assist.

I mean, you can say "pick up a controller," but the reality is aim assist in this game absolutely does influence gunfights. It is not about whether controller players can aim or not, obviously many can. The issue is that controller has built-in rotational tracking and very low recoil compensation, while mouse has to manually control all of that.

On controller, the weapons kick way less because the stick input is smoothed and stabilized. 

On mouse:
Recoil is full strength, pixel for pixel.
You have to manually counter every vertical and horizontal movement yourself.

On controller:
Recoil is filtered so it does not spike or jitter.
The aim assist system helps keep the reticle from drifting off the target.

So yes, controller does effectively have less recoil.

So "learn to aim" goes both ways. Try turning aim assist completely off and see how different it feels. It is not the same as PC aiming. And saying "Snap does not work, so it is fine" does not change the fact that rotational aim assist is the real strong part.

No hate to controller players, just saying the assist plus recoil smoothing is a real mechanical advantage in close and mid range fights.

Skill is skill, but if the game is correcting your tracking and smoothing your recoil, that is an advantage. Just be honest about that part.

i would say Option to turn off Crossplay has to be there.. but EA is afraid their game gonna die. (probably soon it will die anyway like BF V firestorm)

I pity you guys. Since I turned off cross-play the games have been great! No getting shot through walls. No dumping a mag into someone just for them to 2 shot you while facing a different direction. The gunfights seem fair, no insta death. Haven't been headshot killed by a "highly skilled" player with a pistol 150m away. It's been great. I don't think pc players turning off cross-play will do what you think it will for you. In fact it might make it even worse...if you're not a cheater.

I'm on xbox and get no aim assist. Maybe it works differently on PC, but I don't get any aim assist. None of this "insanely sticky" action you speak of. I feel nothing. The only thing that happens is when there is a group of enemies at a distance and I ads, the reticle slowly pulls back and forth between the enemies, not locking onto their bodies, but just slowly moving side to side which completely screws up your aim.

I did see a vid yesterday that said they ARE nerfing aim assist for console.

Yeah I dont get where these lies are coming from. I play on xbox series x with a controller. Ive played every battlefield entry over the years. The aim assist is crap. I always disable cause it doesnt help at all..it slows down the aim rate causing you to shoot too early and miss every shot. When i disable the aim assist i have the ability to put the white hipfire crosshair on a target and then aim and it looks like im locking on...but thats just pre aim.. aim assist does not work and if you are on mouse and keyboard, using your whole arm to aim and yet you can complain...maybe go buy a console or just get good.

You my friend are completely lying. My self and my friends have all tried this with xbox controllers on PC and we all confirmed how insanely sticky the crosshair is on fast moving players. The pic above is one of the guys controllers, he's terrible at the game usually getting 5 or less kills in conquest, but with controller he went 25/10. 

By times i would say..legalize cheats..then we are over all this crap.

It will be no fun any longer for those who cheat.

I'm a Ps5 player and I agree. But it's not the stock game aim assists. It's that cronus zen that's the problem. Sad to day there are more cronus zen players then PC hackers.

No lie I turned my aim assists off and still get a decent K/D. Most games I'm 20 and 3. Stats say 5 K/D. That's without the aim assists. I had to turn it off because it made my aim worse. Most of the time it's like a negative side of a magnet fighting the positive side. Example I would aim at the player but my red dot would stop right beside the player and if I tried to line it up it would push to the other side. Like that had a bubble. 

It's cronus zen that's that problem. Easy to get and set up a monkey with half a brain can use it. EA said they are banning for it. But I know people that have been using it release day and every day. 

I can normally tell when a player is using it. 1 they have really bad aim 50m out because the aim assists don't really work that well. 2 they have the slow controller turning speed. But once they ads just insta snaps and 0.01 seconds you die.  I keep my speed at 100.

I turned cross play off because the PC hacks but then I really noticed all the cronus zen. I would say 60% of controller player are using it. They need to stop this asap or take aim assists away 

My problem is PC users cannot op out of cross play but console users can!!! FPS games moving to a console/controller focus has killed the genre.
