PC players like this too because controller players get pretty atrocious aim assist, meaning that playing on controller basically gives them cheats compared to mouse users. Not sure if controller users on PC get the aim assist as well, or if it can be disabled or if you can queue into matches with only the same input method.
Either way, I dont see why this.would be bad unless the player population on one device is too low to find matches in a reasonable amount of time.
I’m so fucking sick of the whole “bUt AiM aSsIsT!!!11!”
It’s nowhere fucking near the advantage pc players act like it is when they have pretty much every other advantage using m&k. It’s literally only even a thing in the first place because aiming quickly with a controller is ass for most people.
I dunno, without this, controller players would have no chance against mouse players. ITT cross play between controller and mouse can never really be a fair fight.
Yeah but in COD it’s not much of an assistance as it is a straight up aimbot. It’s why I laugh at the fact that “quick scoping” is seen as this amazing thing, when in reality the moment you ADS when just vaguely near a target instantly snaps your aim to the target allowing a super easy hit.
Battlefield also has aim assist, but all it does is have a weak magnetizing effect if the target starts moving as you get the crosshair over them that feels like the speed you can move your aim is dynamic but only when you’re already aiming well enough on something.
But also: COD supports Mouse & Keyboard on the console (at least PlayStation). It’s literally the only game I’ve found so far that does.
I play Cold War and Warzone on PS5 pretty regularly. I’ve played the OG MW1 and 2 back in the day. The only version I’ve played without the aim assist was BLOPS on the Wii.
The aim assist has always been super fucking strong.

IDK which cod you’re referring to but in the original MW1-2 quick scoping and trick shots were insanely challenging and a real skill. There was never such assistance that these actions were easy.
This, the aim assist didnt seem to exist on snipers, spent probably hundreds of hours with friends fucking around on MW2 doing quick scope shit, you could be looking right at them but just be sliiiightly off and you’ll absolutely miss.
Console level aim assist used to work even on PC with a controller. Don’t remember any news saying this changed so I’m guessing it still works the same.

Well if you had community servers instead of brain dead match making this wouldn’t be a problem for PC players
Fucking preach.

I see you’ve either not played COD, or have only played the campaigns.

Aim assist and “snap to target” are different things. Aim assist is in console/controller MP. Snap to target is not.
The worst part of COD on console is that install takes up half your friggin drive.
It’s just as big on PC.
