Battlefield 6 Aim Assist
It feels like Battlefield has become primarily a Console game first, and a PC game second. Frankly, the amount of assist players get is insulting to PC players. I was going to try to start this discu...

I’m on PS5.
In my portal servers, the first things I do is remove aim assist and remove kill cam.
Neither of these should be in a shooter.
That's pretty hardcore my friend! Love it lol.
I'm fine with some assist, but I think Dice is catering too aggressively to the ultra-casual crowd. Don't get me wrong, you absolutely need casuals for a bigger game to succeed, but squishing the skill ceiling into oblivion isn't the solution either.
What I think would be fair for assist would be:
- Slow down over target
- Rotational assist with a delay of 75-125ms for switching directions (basically, it shouldn't track an enemies strafing pattern perfectly without any input corrections)
The reduced recoil thing is a joke. It's not harder to control recoil with a controller. Not sure where that myth started, but it's complete nonsense.
Regarding Snap to Target, it makes my stomach turn thinking about as a concept, because it's literally a legal aimbot with a nicer name, but maybe what was available in BF5 would be okay. It was significantly less snappy than what they gave players in 2042.
I just don't believe in artificial assisting for controller users in any way, no matter how small of an impact it has. It's still unfair to those who play on M&K. You can't have fair play with cheap stuff like that in games.
As a PC player, here's what I'd like to see for our options.
Be able to disable crossplay so we can match ONLY with other PC players.
Be able to select input-based matchmaking with ONLY M&K users, because some on PC use controllers. And there needs to be no way to switch peripherals (from M&K to controller) without closing the game and restarting it.
Give us those options and I think most PC users would be happy. I know I would!
I want all of us to be able to enjoy the game however we wish and hopefully Dice will provide us with the options to do so. Surely it can't be that hard to do that for us.
