Does EA actually monitor these questions or is this more of a community only help page? Not a single lead on this issue and its bee  Awhile since my post

Sorry that this got missed before. I'll be able to grab an Xbox One pad in a couple of hours and test this myself, but in the meantime it may help to reset your config file. 

You'll find it at C:\Users\*your user name*\Saved Games\Respawn\Apex\profile, if you delete this it should create a new one from scratch, and you can see if this has any effect. 

If the issue persists, can I double check if inputs are properly picked up in other games?

Ok. So apex legends has a deeper problem than controller sensitivity. I have fixed this problem but before i give everyone a fix for this issue, i want everyone to go experience the problem in training and then set the controller down and use your mouse and keyboard. The problem vanishes upon using the mouse. But the second you use the controller again it happens again. I believe they have failed at trying to regulate the aim assist. Cause the problem hasnt always been there. I even upgraded my gpu thinking my hardware was failing. Anyways my pc now is a i7 9700k and a gigabyte rtx 2080 super gpu. Monitor is alienware aw2518h.. and if i want to see more than 140fps i cant use controller. Cause that is when it starts. But my hardware is easily 240fps capable but sensitivity on controller is wrong at that fps. So if you go to the game launcher library and click advanced options and set launch option at +fps_max 144 it should fix your issue.

Hello. Has Apex done an update on this issue for controller users on pc? I don't want to play at a cap of 144 fps because my pc can go up to 240fps.
