Aim will always stick to enemies despite having turned off Aim Assist in the options menu. Really annoying since aim often drifts in the wrong direction while strafing around enemies and makes aiming incredibly difficult

    Yes, this is STILL a problem.  This is a horrible bug for players aiming at one thing, then aim assist chooses a completely different target.  I can't even imagine choosing to play WITH this feature, and the fact that turning it off is broken is extremely annoying.  I am also on PS4.  I don't know why EA chose to put all these "automatic" starfighter controls in the game.  The controls are otherwise so superior to the previous battlefront game, but the auto-leveling and aim assist just completely destroy your ability to control the starfighter movement.  Turning off the auto-leveling does work fine, so I don't know why turning off the aim assist is messed up.  I don't know if this is related, but torpedo aim is also messed up, with the game often choosing a different target than the one you selected.  So for example, on Naboo, I can aim my heavy's torpedo at the MTT, and it shoots it at a turret that is in a completely different line of sight instead.

    I know everyone's freaking out about the reward-claiming bug, but this one is still an issue.  Let us turn off the aim assist already!

    First reported in November, still a problem.  Clearly, the devs knew that aim assist would not be for everybody, so they made it something that could be turned off, and included that in game options.  But turning it off is broken.  Please fix soon.
