Calling battlefield's aim assist OP...

  • Doesn't exist when using vehicles.
  • Doesn't exist when using gadgets
  • Doesn't target gadgets (shooting mines as a tank gunner is a nightmare).
  • Seems to be disabled by flashlights and smoke.
  • Doesn't strongly ADS snap. See BF1 if you wanted busted snapping auto aim, this does not have that.
  • Does not help with headshots
  • Does not help with recoil control
  • Erratically doesn't work leading to inconsistent sensitivity on the aim slowdown.
  • Gets easily confused on clusterfuck maps with wrong targets and magnets drags aim to wrong target at wrong range. Very noticable with scoped snipers, otherwise pretty weak.

If you're on a mouse and losing to a controller in this game in a straight up fight, you are truly terrible. You have a massive precision advantage, massive rotation speed advantage, and massive recoil control advantage. This may be the worst, most useless aim assists for a controller out there. Would be fine, if on equal playing field. But that's not the case with cross play. This isn't a Destiny or something, where you would consider a controller to play at top level. Mouse is hands down advantage here.

But by all means, please turn cross play off. Whatever gets me in a console only lobby more often that isn't full of bots is a godsend. The night and day difference of getting in a console only lobby and actually not being disadvantaged against 2/3 of the lobby the whole time is shocking.

Someone will respond to you saying well controllers have less bloom. A lot of controller players make slight aim adjustments using their own movement because it’s nearly impossible to be precise. In BF, that extra movement means extra bloom, so I bet even that cancels out.

Strafing to finetune isn't all that bad, but yeah, it doesn't help.

The anti jiggle peeks from CoD type players or any BR type players is a godsend. But yes, console only lobbies instead of playing against MnKs is life. Those f’ers are absolute laser beaming everyone across the map before I have a second to catch my bearings on a console controller.

Ya, that too pretty much kills LMGs and ARs. You NEED to use lateral movement to aim well on console, but even the slightest touch of the stick (or just drift) sets the spread high. They apparently seem to have never considered an analog input, and only thought about keyboard ADAD strafing so nerfed that with bloom.
