Just tried controller lmao, the amount of aim assist is insane

[PVT.Blueberry]

At least I know now what I'm fighting against. Even scoped in long distance fight mouse is still probably at a disadvantage, had no problem aiming with controller. In fact i liked engaging at a distance on the sticks. 47 accuracy roughly both times which would be a a good game on mouse. I would imagine if i played regularly would easily be 50-60 accuracy every game.

proof is in the aim assist......at close to med range if your on controller aim magnet wins.

people who use controller only, pick up a mouse and see what it feels like before you speak.

Then play with controller ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

its too tank like, even if im at a disadvantage, my fun level drops too much. It is what it is. I just really wanted to confirm my suspicions.

There's some room to adjust aim assist, and I do hope they come up with a solid compromise, because adding a crossplay toggle is clearly not going to work.

It didn't feel this bad in MCC, so I'm not sure what got them to up the ante, this game has way more strafing, and it hard punishes KBM users, while it does nothing to controller users.

I don't no what they could do to make it feel more rewarding to play on keyboard and mouse. Add More magnetism to mouse (not too much but enough to close accuracy gap for an avg mouse player to be on par with avg controller)

Even if im punished i still greatly enjoy beating other good players on controller. LIke i heard a streamer once say," playing ranked cross play is like the equivalent of being in a hyperbolic chamber (DBZ)".... so when you go back to mouse only playlist you will have insane aim and destroy everyone.

The only thing they would need to do to even it out without gimping controllers is reduce magnetism universally. Then you would have to make more micro adjustments with controller but you would still have aim assist. As it is you can shoot plain off the side of a target and hit with both inputs.

I'm a controller player and I'm actually experimenting with keeping my controller in my left hand and reaching for the mouse *just* for sniping, it's seriously much better to snipe on mouse lol.
Whenever I get a sniper or skewer I'll reach on to my mouse. It's funny because they deliberately added a 1 second block to all inputs when switching in the MCC, but they didn't bother here, so you can actually use a controller AND mouse together.

you do know that BR is the only weapon that has aim assist at this stage right? skewer, sniper, shock rifle have zero.

Stalker has some, hydra none, pulse very little. list goes on.

for the most part. I obviously cant give you the exact values. I just know the aim assist on BR is actually insane on controller, but skewer etc have none. Commando is next to impossible to get clean kills with on controller.

you also have to decide whether you want to no scope or scope, its very difficult when you get descoped on controller in this title.

Furthermore, aim acceleration is hard coded as different ratios on vertical/horizontal, you cant have even sensitivity on both axis no matter what.

also side note, keyboard still gets bullet magnetism which is stronger than aim assist. Aim assist doesnt really do anything, it just gets you close. bullet magnetism will bend rounds drastically to fire offbore from the reticle, controller players are just more used to playing in red reticle range it seems.

It doesnt help that 343i removed RRR from the game for multiplayer to prevent trigger macros whenever the reticle is red. or <insert anticheat excuse here>

No it isn't. The sidekick pistol has an absurd amount of aim assist as well, and when you combine it with rapid fire strikepack controller mods it becomes impossible to win a straight fight against controller players as a mouse player.

It doesnt have a noticible amount. Furthermore you can achieve the same thing with a keyboard macro on your mouse 4 or 5. You cant really spam fire the sidekick any faster than with a mouse. I dont even know where this is coming from. the gun does have a hardcoded ROF

Eh. I have been playing with a controller for the past couple of days. I have better accuracy using the controller, but I honestly hate it and I feel unaccomplished when I am #1 in the round. It's so ridiculous how much aim assist helps. You almost don't have to use the right thumb stick except to adjust the plane here and there. Otherwise just jiggle back and forth and win gunfights. They really need to adjust the aim assist or mnk people are just going to leave the game. I hate hearing the argument "HALO WAS ALWAYZ CONTROLLERZ".

I would just like to play with mnk as I have almost exclusively played all FPS on mnk. Just feels right.

What ever aim assist you guys seem to have I would love to actually get some of that. I would like me some top frag games. apparently its super easy. only got like 600 hours in MCC, a good amount in Halo 5, and 100+ in infinite.
Must just suck idk

If you are playing with controller you shouldn't be having issues. You may have the "bug" where even though you plug in your controller, but get no aim assist.

To fix that. Just right click the game in the library and go to properties and select controllers and the drop down select disable steam input. Apparently there is a conflict with the game and Steam. At least that worked for me. You will see and feel a difference in aiming with controller.
