Post-patch feedback (Controller, Aim Assist, Crossplay, Gameplay)
Hi Battlefield team,
First of all, great job on the latest update. Several aspects of the game feel noticeably improved, and I wanted to share some constructive feedback after extensive testing on controller.
Controller & Aim Assist
After the update, aim assist slowdown feels much better balanced.
It is no longer overly aggressive or disruptive, which makes aiming feel more natural and consistent.
The aim curves (including the dynamic curve) also feel improved and more usable after the patch.
That said, there is still room to improve the balance between controller and mouse input:
Aim assist is functional, but controller tracking and rotational assist could be slightly stronger
Especially when tracking fast-moving targets at mid to long range
Ideally, rotational aim assist should activate primarily while the player is moving (left stick input), rather than when standing still
This would reward active movement and feel more intuitive and skill-based
Overall, the current implementation is a big step in the right direction and already feels much less frustrating than before the update.
Crossplay Behavior
At the moment, when crossplay is turned off, matchmaking seems to be restricted to the same platform only (e.g. Xbox vs Xbox).
A more ideal behavior would be:
Crossplay OFF → Console vs Console (PlayStation + Xbox)
PC players filtered out only
This would greatly improve matchmaking consistency while keeping input fairness.
Enemy Visibility
Enemy visibility has clearly been improved, and it’s good to see ongoing work in this area.
I’m currently testing a potential solution on my end, and once I finish verifying it, I’ll be happy to share more detailed feedback with the team.
Future Mode Potential (PvE / Extraction)
The game already has strong foundations for additional modes, such as:
PvE
DMZ / Extraction-style mode
Survival mode
The current atmosphere (especially with the Winter Offensive content) strongly reminds me of The Division 1, which many players loved.
Exploring these modes in the future could significantly expand Battlefield’s long-term appeal.
Thanks again for the recent improvements — the game is clearly moving in a positive direction.
Looking forward to future updates!
