Not even the Aim Assist know where to shoot here!

As a PC player I do not like automation's. One of the fun aspects of playing this game on MnK is that movement is key, you duck dive evade in gun fights. But the problem is that movement wont matter at all against aim assist, it will keep tracking you - on mouse you predict aim so you will miss shots when someone is moving sporadically. The fix is easy, make PC aim-assist miss more shots when people are moving sporadically.
Why MnK players get tilted by controller players is that having a good aim with MnK takes light years more in effort, and the hardest part is having a consistent aim. You can fine tune your aim for 10 years or what not and still get lazered by someone on a controller who spent a week playing with the medium.
I think a good change would be to make aim-assist more natural, when people move sporadically it should miss more - perhaps give them a compensation with a fast button to armor swap from friendly/enemy boxes.
Problem I have with aim-assist, is not facing xbox/ps4 players but when facing someone with a decent PC rigg on a controller - it is like facing an aimbot (in close range).
The other day I got lazered by a horizion PC controller player as they uplifted while going up in the air - thats pretty hard for even the best MnK players to do.
Issue is that I have to play like I am facing an aimbotter vs a PC controller player in close range, and I have to always second guess (is that a controller player or aimbotter, can I push or not - if its a gibby PC controller player I wont be able to push them alone in close range). And that kind of screws you up. I like playing this game full on going in blazing, but when I always have to second guess It really ruins the flow of the game.

Nothing about Crossplay on PC. 😢
https://answers.ea.com/t5/News-Game-Updates/Switch-it-up-with-the-Chaos-Theory-Collection-event/m-p/...
Please respawn... let us PC Gamers deactivate Crossplay!
I just saw the Switch Trailer... Aim Assist²
And believe me, if a kid master a Aim Assist... we will Fail hard.
Don't do the same bad decision like Fortnite.
PC = no Aim Assist, please!

@Tom0veHonestly nerfing aim assist is what killed Fortnite, the only reason I never uninstalled was because I wanted at least one of the battlepass skins each season but I do admit the machine gun and smgs needed heavily nerfed but by nerfing aim assist instead of the weapons by themselves the only weapons I could effectively use was the burst assault rifle and shotguns, then they nerfed the burst ar to 2 bullets per shot so now I basically just get into peoples faces and 1-2 shot them with a tactical/combat shotgun but they did finally buff the aim assist back up so that the assault rifles are halfway usable at mid range again but you still will only hit a few bullets each clip if your lucky
In chaper 2 season 2, I was playing Fortnite more than I did Apex, now I only get on Fortnite for 30 mins to do weekly challenges and get off because its just not fun anymore and solos used to be ok but now they are 80-90% bots with an occasional real player scatterred in that you won’t run into until the last 5-10 players are left
(I am not joking, the ‘’players’’ are AI)

@TheApexLegendNub
Please stop defending this dung(for PC) called "Aim Assist".
I never heared about a "aim assist nerf" in Fortnite, sure, Fortnite also have a lot of problems, way too many updates, since Months my RTX 2070 can't handle that game, framedrops all the time, I also think that Bot-System is a mistake, but Fortnite is a Game Optimized for Kids, so I don't Care!
Apex can't be compared with Fortnite when aiming anyway, third person & first person are different worlds.
In general, Apex is a first person Shooter with a lot more aggressiv parts, kids shouldn't play that!!!
EA should get a pat on the finger because this game offers more and more Content for children, the German language in particular is a disaster from the Teletubbies Studio!

@Tom0veI don’t know why you never heard about it, it happened right after Ninja and SypherPK cried about it in their videos... no surprise game developers always listen to their main streamers over the playerbase
It recieved a 30-40% nerf... I don’t exactly remember the exact number I just know it was substantial enough that it doesn’t even work now... I play the game pretty terrible the way it is now and without any aim assist at all I would be forced to uninstall the game so of course I am going to defend it after playing with it for 8 seasons... if you are wanting console’s aim assist toned down to match pc’s aim assist then go ahead it doesn’t affect me but using a controller requires a ton of skill because mouse and keyboard users have a full range of motion while a controller only has 2 sticks which often is too far or not enough and its difficult to get the precise aim you need while on my mouse and keyboard account I was getting precise aim easily at mid-long range I have been practicing on controller and lowering my sight sensitivity as helped but I am still not as good as my mnk acc with snipers and g7/hemlok/3030 and eva 8s
note: its not something they would ever put in patchnotes, so the only way to know is when a leaker posts the file changes like ilootgames said console had 60% aim assist while pc only had 40% about a year ago but he hasn’t updated on that in awhile

Exactly my issue with aim assist.
Why do people automatically assume we mean "it's like aimbot!"
We're not saying that. But that "stickiness" it has when changing directions IS INHUMAN. When strafing, it's literally impossible for a human to track your movement change INSTANTLY. There is a delay where you have to first FLICK and then you can track.
With aim assist it sticks so when you change directions it compensates for the reaction delay. It's unfair entirely and makes you have to play the game differently.
Easy fix? Just allow us to opt out of crossplay. Everybody wins. Whether or not you folks saying aim assist actually works or not it won't matter. Us who thinks it DOES can opt out. And those who think it DOESN'T can still play crossplay.
