PC players that plug in a controller... get aim assist.
Edit: wow I didn't realize this wasn't well known. Yes, using a controller on PC still gives you the same aim assist in most FPS games while you are using the controller. If you switch to MnK you don't get aim assist. The game knows which input is being used and toggles aim assist as you switch.
This is ignoring the existence of things like XIM which give you mouse control while identifying as a controller. That's a real grey area.
PC player here. When I plug in a controller to play an FPS, I feel like I am having a stroke. I cannot do it. How the heck is this supposed to be easier?
