MyPC vs console

So I'm on the forum everyday and I can't count how many times I see PC players complain about console players so let's just talk it out and see if everyone understands what they are complaining about on this subject and how it effects battlefield 6 

     M&k player have a mouse and pad with as big a pad as they want with free movement in every direction with speed of light sensitivity if they chose with I'm guessing no aim assist, they have their whole arm to use to aim

 

     Controllers on console have a joystick that has a total movement of 1 inches in any direction with sensitivity as fast as the speed of light as well with only a thumb to aim with and aim assist that slows the sensitivity down when you oversteer the sights best way to put it 

Now as a clarification the aim assist doesn't now snap you to a person it doesn't not take you to the head or have any type of control on where you aim all it does is slow down your sensitivity when your in a bubble over there cheat which hurts you more than anything sometimes on a sniper if someone runs past your reticle it will mess your sight up and try and drag you away from the spot your aiming on a person which it should never do but hence why I personally don't use aim assist it's turn off now if your watching a stream and the aim snaps to a person they have a third party program that is banned and just hasn't been detected by javelin anti cheat yet because the game cheat devs are constantly changing their code to out smart the anti cheat until the anti cheat programmers find the new changes and implement them into the system so they're differences between the two now more things on comparison 

 

     M&k have a whole keyboard of buttons to bind controls to and gives you full mobility with your entire hand so you can jump while your aiming you can bind the actions with any button even if it's already being used but with the advantages of just having 5 fingers to do anything with is huge the PCs themselves usually have better processors and run more smoothly than the consoles and usually have better connections even during the desync I've noticed 

 

     Controllers yet again only has the 2 toggles that move maybe an inch in every direction have to use 2 hands to use ads and fire have to choose between aiming and jumping unless you have a aftermarket controller with extra buttons on back which is a waste of money because they always short out or the toggles mess up with 20 hours of gameplay and as many times as I've tried to bind actions to different buttons they don't work correctly when you do. When there is a desync the console usually 3 out of 5 times has the worst connection also has slightly reduced recoil that was fixed to give more recoil on top of the random horizontal recoil so have to learn to play different after hours of forming muscle memory 

So with all this being said I think their is a lot more pros for the pc players versus the pros for a console player and that doesn't take into effect the  anonymous studies that have been done in the last 6 months that 57% players that did do the study cheat in some way or another but theirs a lot of players that complain about things they know nothing about but they need and excuse we need to keep the forums with feedback that actually helps the devs fix the core mechanics of the game and quit complaining about reason why you died so we can get the main things fixed first if I've missed anything on either platform make sure and say something I just hit the basics I could think of

    I’m tired of players telling slowdown is a downside and they don’t use it anyways. There are videos out there showing you how to use slowdown to your advantage to identify players you can’t really see and even shoot them by aiming at the middle of the zone. It absolutely happened to me, it makes soft cover useless, facilitates shooting at the head when only the head is visible, and generally allows you to do things that are very hard on m+kb.

    I don’t care about the overall balance, I care about the asymmetry and those situations that will leave a bad taste in my mouth because I know I can’t match the assist. To controller players that insist controllers are a bad input for FPS, stop pretending and just don’t use a controller. Else, if you’re gonna insist on keeping your controller and need your assists to get there, then we’re not playing the same game and let’s keep them separate.

    I haven't played on console since my Halo days, obviously I would do bad. It doesn't prove your point, it just makes you look silly.

    The thing is... playing on controller is not that easy and there is no beam shooting.... sorry. 

    Try one round of conquest by yourself for example on xbox and gamepad.  You will see. And if you do then post the match summary screen here afterwards.

    The thing is, no one wants to play with a cheater using aimbot. No one wants to play with a console player using aim assist.
