I detest heavy aim assist because it’s only used as a manipulation tool.
In BfN, people who use heavy aim assist are usually those who bunny hop/intentionally throw off their hit boxes. In GW2, it was characters like Agent Pea that could aim hack (with heavy aim assist), when manipulated correctly.
I wish they’d limit bunny hopping or remove heavy aim assist from BfN.
No offense, @mikepal19 , I just can’t stand people trying to take advantage of mechanics.

- 6 years ago@spIash_damage No that's fine. For most part, all console fps use a form of aim assist. Because compared to PC, you don't have the fine motor control. Console aiming is assisted because you can only use your thumb muscles to adjust your aim. With a PC, you have superior control because you have muscles of your hand, forearm and even upper arm to adjust your aim.
With that said, at any elite level of any fps game, you have to take advantage the mechanics otherwise, naturally you would get taken advantage of if you don't. And it sucks that it's like that but that's the reality. There are people who play casually and don't care about it and there are other casuals who do. Either dev's can patch it somehow, or people have to use it to compete. Or don't use it and just get use to the situation.
You can do WAY more on PC than you can on console with heavy aim assist. This is applied throughout all shooting games. This assist is just to close the gap between the two platforms.
I don't need to heavy aim assist because I feel I have decent aim but there are things you can do with heavy assist that you can't without it. And I won't let someone have that over me in this game. Therefore I use it as it will definitely be used on me. Im not judging if you don't wanna follow that path, cuz that's your choice. But just know that taking advantage of certain mechanics are common place which can be seen all the way up to the professional levels. Just gotta adapt I guess. - 6 years ago
I'm lost, what is the connection between bunny hopping and heavy aim assist? I don't bunny hop but use heavy because my aim sucks especially with this new logitech controller on pc...to be honest the difference between chars makes impossible to me to have a comfortable sensitivity.
Example, imp you could run high sensitivity with heavy and do well...try that with citron or cactus no zoom fire and see if you can hit a bunny hopper, impossible...for them I need a really low sensitivity and no or light aim assist.
This new controller is driving me insane, the thumstick for aiming is so hard to use.

@mikepal19 All due respect, I don’t bunny hop and only those with uber internet connections can frag me regularly. I will not bunny hop and shoot in this game ever. 😊👍. I’d rather die than resort to these tactics. I experience you as a respectful person and hope I convey the same to you even though our perspective is opposing.
@Gormey it’s TRASH. People find these things that can be abused and that exactly what they do; abuse them. On console, you can try to hit a bunny hopping enemy without aim assist, with light assist, and with heavy assist and the result will vary (depending on a multitude of contingencies).... however, if you’re the one bunny hopping and can get close enough to an opponent, it’s like your crosshairs refuse to leave your opponent/it’s HARD to miss. With console, this is a HUGE advantage because we aim and jump with the same thumb but those with heavy aim assist can do both at the same time; it’s almost like cheating to me. Hope this makes sense. The heavy assist allows you to jump and shoot and barely miss when you learn the “technique.”
EDIT: I didn’t use Captain Cannon in GW2 because he was cheap. Same with Agent Pea using heavy aim assist as well as Electro Pea. Just because it’s easier to kill people with these methods doesn’t make you a better player and when you face people that can really aim and don’t employ these tactics, you’ll die.
- 6 years ago@spIash_damage Haha then we agree to disagree. You've chosen your path!

No worries. I don't really think so but maybe I don't fully understand the term. With Imp and Nightcap during a fight I will strafe and sometimes jump or double jump to be hard to hit. I kind of think that is the advantage they enjoy for having less health. I certainly don't spam jump or knowingly exploit any mechanics. Is that bunny hopping? I don't think so but I'm not so familiar with the term.
That said I normally play larger characters like Action Hero and snipers and have aim assist on either way, so hopping doesn't really come into play much during most of my games.

@34975634954957 bunny hopping generally refers to people who spam jump constantly while fighting, especially up close. It can make smaller characters really difficult to hit and if you're a precision based character as opposed to an assault rifle or AoE style character, it can be rough to deal with.
