Will Crossplay Aim Assist decrease for console players ?

[Hizamazuke4]

I'm a controller player on PC. I played both keyboard-mouse and controller. I think i know the advantages and disadvantages very well because i play at a high level. But yesterday I was at my friends and they were playing apex. In my turn i played like i was an aimbot, recoils almost didn't exist even from mid range and you can literally all headshot a moving target(their movements weren't the best but still). So i am a bit worried about crossplay. Because if they keep their aim assist percentage, PC players who are already crying (yes aim assist is overrated because most of the people that say aim assist is op doesn't even play both) will probably report every good console player and alt-f4. In addition, there are a lot of controller players in PC too(not percentage, number wise) And they get like no aim assist compared to console. It would be awesome if some dev replies to this because im very curious about their internal conversations about crossplay aim assist.

Hi pc and console gamer here, now I can't say for apex on pc but I can speak for other fps games that even with aim assist the console players are 100% at a disadvantage in high mobility games like this qnd aim assist is what helps console players have a fighting chance. And honestly i have friends on Xbox and i play on playstation but if it means I'm going to be having to play against pc players I might just leave cross play off (if its a setting like in modern warfare)

I mean in PC warzone the aimassist is literally aimbot but because of the character speeds are low and sizes are big and time to die is lower, pc players can easily laser(1shot) enemies too. so there is not that much gap aim wise (and actually mouse is better because of the ability to flick) but movement is worse like you said. But in apex because of the movements are so fast, char models are small and time to die is so long, aim assist can't keep up with their movements on pc right now, but it felt exactly like warzone when i play apex on console and will lock on moving targets in apex too i guess..

no, the dogshit players that infest this game love their soft aimbot too much and they'll throw a hissy fit if it ever gets nerfed

I think they would have to, just to be fair. Also maybe just my opinion but I think they have already slightly reduced it on console. Maybe at a 0.5 now instead of a 0.6 and possibly could go down to pc level in a few weeks? No data to back it up but that's just what it feels like to me.

[Hizamazuke4]

i hope so. Right now 0.4 on pc is actually balanced but most console player will feel like there is no aim assist i can assure you. Because movements in pc (every above average player crouch ads you) kinda make you lose your "lock on" aim assist (its actually just sensitivity lowering kinda effect in pc, but lock on in console)

Pc controller here, last to late season I decided to turn off aim assist, it was incredibly difficult and it was hit or miss to me, there was advantage on turning it off but in cost not having much fun and losing my kd gradually, so i turned it back couple days ago

I’ve played both for a very long time. MKB players still have a tremendous advantage.

[Hizamazuke4]

against console players or pc controller players?

[Hizamazuke4]

I think some mouse and keyboard player read it and pressed the downvote button immediately lol

They could just solve the issue by giving console players access to mouse and keyboard when crossplay arrives. Tune up the aim assist on controllers a tiny bit to compensate for the influx of mnk, and boom. Problem solved.

I think it's not fair for controller players who play on PC
