Aim assist is overtuned

Just had a game where a PS5 player could hit me from 200+m from MK1-Alpha and I could not hit them with a DMR, simply because they had aim-assist.

I’ll just say this, I’ve played controller on PC for over two years. I played on the PS5 for the first time this past weekend. I was shocked at how strong the aim assist was and how little recoil guns like the MK have on PS5. Aim assist is very strong on PS5.

The game literally aims for you on console, and so many people on this sub deny it.

It's significantly easier to hit people with the MK than the DMR, even at longer distances

Gendalph [OP]

But that makes no sense. I was barely peeking from the flying island, probably from 250m. I couldn't see where my shots land, and yet console players have no issue hitting in that situation.

NotaReli

What makes you so certain you were going against a console player?

Gendalph [OP]

Because console players after 25.10 patch have unnaturally good aim. That wasn't the case since I returned last year, but now it literally feels console players have aimbot. I was far enough to be basically invisible, and I still got hit.

Like, try hitting a peeking player from 250m, any gun. I'm not a pro, nor do I have 20/20 vision, but this situation should not have been possible.

You can see what platform people are on when you play on PC

Because they had better aim.

All the console gremlins coming in with the skill issue or some other dumb shit. You can always tell by someone’s sim what device they’re on though. KBM players hit shotgun shots well with their ability to flick well. Console players will beam at mid to long range. Controller players on pc will be more conservative and wait til the enemies are mid range

ok I don't say this here often but skill issue please get better

yeah from now on follow your original plan

Pc players when a console player has good aim: 😡

bobthepirate12

Console players when they think they have good aim with aim assist on. Like no mate that’s the game aiming for you.

[deleted]

Right they dont wanna hear the truth but as a cracked out pc player here in unreal.. tbf only like 3 controller players are good meanwhile you have like 20k pc players who are good asf let em be man lil noobs 😂

Me, a console player who plays without aim assist

Stay mad

RawDogginiit

Bro I play on pc and used to on xbox. I'm telling you, anyone who gets a pc is INSTANTLY better at aiming than on console. You have to be very very good on console to match a pc players aim lmfao. Quit talking as if the game aims for them and that's why they're good. Go ahead and try it out. I promise you it's much harder

RexGoliath75

Sounds like a skill issue if you can’t hit them

Gendalph [OP]

Show me how you snipe people with a DMR from 200+m.

RexGoliath75

They have this little thing called a scope.

Aim assist has nothing to do with a dmr and the mk is a beam regardless of aim assist

Gendalph [OP]

I know for certain that DMR has drop. Does MK1-Alpha have no drop?

zee_bith

Nah mk is hitscan

Gendalph [OP]

It's certainly not hitscan.

zee_bith

The mk? Yes it is lol

[deleted]

It's pretty easy...

SKILL ISSUE 😂

Anxious_Vast_3493

Good. Remove crossplay and leave us console players alone.

Gendalph [OP]

I'd be fine with that, honestly. It's not STW where matchmaking is a genuine issue.

All_Skulls_On

Nonsense. Please explain how to tune my aim assist to effortlessly beam players at 200m with an MK. It only goes to 100%, and at 100% it's hardly noticeable at all. This overtune doesn't exist, my friend.

It's a hack. You're being killed by cheaters with cheats, not by console players with aim assist. Learn to recognize what is and is not possible, and report these lowlife cheaters.

Derevo417

PS5 got broken aim assist, because on consoles it's still tied to FPS. Yep, it's at least 2 times stronger there than on PS4 or Xbox Series X.

All_Skulls_On

Really? That's news to me, but I can believe it. Everyone seems to make such a big deal about aim assist, but to me it's so soft that it's barely noticeable. I know that it can be wildly overturned on pc when using a controller and has been like that for years, but it kinda makes sense that at least one console has the same thing going on, otherwise nobody would complain about consoles.

Like, there's heaps of cheaters, but maybe not every aimbot guy you see is cheating. Makes sense.

They nerfed it on PC but not on next gen consoles. I’ve been controller on PC for two years and played ps5 yesterday I could not believe how strong the aim assist is. It’s ridiculously strong on ps5. On PC it’s virtually nonexistent. Also the guns on console have far less recoil than PC in addition to the stronger aim assist.

Spoffle

Aim assist on PC is very weak. It's aim assist on console that's the problem. Aim assist on PC hasn't been strong for years now.

[deleted]

Or they use zen aimbot, had 2 today that were hacking in creative mode

(ON NEXT GEN CONSOLE WITH 120fps)

Gendalph [OP]

I have a decent rig, but since 25.10 console aim-assist feels like aimbot.

[deleted]

I'm under the impression that aim assist doesn't work while scoped and that gun doesn't have the accuracy to kill you at that range.

[deleted]

Aim assist doesnt work when you are hipfiring and it has reduced recoil

Successful-Mirror686

That door swings both ways people say PC players have aim bot because they can do thing on pc to the guns console players can't to improve accuracy like take away recoil so this is the pot calling the kettle black in my ipinion
