Dont forget the classic ads aim assist randomly locks at you through smoke, vegetation and sometimes walls..
But this isnt a console and crossplay issue. Its an aim assist with controller issue. PC players using controller are having the same situational broken aim assist. That's also how I know it randomly ignores smoke, vegetation and sometimes walls, since i have tested playing with a controller. Also remember the reduced recoil controller has compared to mouse. The aim assist is very much the same as in 2042 and there some nice youtube videos showcasing how ridiculous the aim assist sometimes works.
But in the bigger picture though its not that bad. Mouse is way better to use than controller for most people, so its not like they have a huge advantage. Its very situational. High damage weapons may give advantage to the controller (remember sks in bf2042) but most other weapons does not.
Personally will never switch to controller even though I know i can just ADS when my cross hair is close to an enemy and it will auto lock to closest hitbox and try to stick on it because overall accuracy and movement with mouse is still way better and overall gives better performance.
In the end disabling cross play doesnt stop pc players to use (and abuse) the aim assist with a controller. So if people want to avoid aim assist player the only way is to create a portal version of your game mode and disable aim assist as a rule.
