Please No Aim Assist On PC
Please tell me they will not actually put aim assist to PC version?

It's ruined so many games. Bloodhunt and splitgate aren't even worth playing if you aren't using or simulating controller for aim assist. Lost all desire to play them even tho they're rly fun games cuz controller users just take full auto and perfectly perma autolock on you since the first milsecond you are in their view for even a pixel and you are dead in a second.
There isn't a single game where aim assist helped playerbase grow in any way.
In fact, often quite the opposite.

And, no, before some artistic manchildren come and say hurr durr just gitgud u have advantage. Lol. No. I've been in top few % of playerbase in multiple games before and seen and experienced many fights again aim assist on pc version as so have my friends and many other. No one with a brain would want controller aim assist brought to PC unless they seperate the lobbies for only exclusively aim assist and exclusively without aim assis which can't and won't happen cuz hunt is lacking players to fill lobbies as it is.

Both bloodhunt and splitgate were filled with ppl enjoying fun and fair gameplay loop and both are now basically dead. Rapidly declined after introduction of controller aim assist on PC even though everyone and their mother complained on every possible forum about it being too powerful. And I've heard from couple of friends that destiny, halo and apex are barely any different.

This isn't some goose chase wild theory bs. You can both see and experience this ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ for yourself. Not only that but there's plenty of ways to emulate controller aim assist whilst using keyboard and mouse so everyone can have lite aimbot on kb&m without actually downloading or paying for hacks.

Not to mention how getting sniped behind foliage would become and even more appraent thing since ppl wouldn't need to look but just scan the bushes and trees with their crossairs.

A human can not react within 1ms time window like aim assist can. The amount of skill you need to abuse it, at least in games i've tried personally, is redicilous. Hunt, altho fun and somewhat balanced game, alrdy has it's fair share of problems. But this, mark my words, this will be the final and only nail in coffin it needs. I love the game and would hate to see it die such a miserable death as have so many others. And those alive are predominantly ruled by aim assist users to point you might as well do it yourself instead of trying hard to aim with kb&m.

Yet another game catering to casual baddies that can't figure out how to aim on a mouse. Sad to see FPS reverting to when games had Aim Assist in Singleplayer FPS where the controls were janky and 30 FPS sometimes wasn't even stable.

Hope everyone is ready for a whole new swarm of cheats that Aim Assist will make much more available.

Me when they kept adding spam with Levering and Dual Wield : "Good lord, they keep hand holding idiots who can't aim worth a crap. In an FPS..."

People on forums : "It's RNG and inaccurate bro! If you loose to it you're just bad!"

Me : "Won't be long till they add aim assist cause these kids can't be arsed to learn to aim at all. Just let RNGesus and the devs hold their hands cause they are bad. Can't play a FPS without winning by bullet spamming that carries you via pure luck is bad enough."

Thanks Devs, thanks for proving me right, yet again. It's confirmed everything I've thought since levering and dual wield got put into Hunt. The Devs have giving up on making a unique game. They've sold out, completely.

They've ditched the gun play that made Hunt a unique IP, in favor of trying to entice temporary sales and jumps from ADHD FPS players that jump form game to game. They play for 200 hours, then ZOOM off to the next hot thing FPS that dropped. Meanwhile the game they ditched dies cause they don't care. in the process killing the game because they no longer have a hook and reason for people to stay.

I assume that's what is driving them to do it. Crytek doesn't handle cheating and capitalizes off of cheating. They actively develop game mechanics to protect cheating. Put aim assist in the game and now it's even harder to tell whats going on during a match.

Edit: hmm why'd that double, fixed.

The best part is that there's multiple programs that allow a Mouse and Keyboard to be read as a controller, allowing the Aim Assist without ANY .dll changes, .exe changes, or more or less anything that's detectable to be accessed by the Mouse and Keyboard. All of the advantages of the controller while still having typical Mouse and Keyboard control.

We all know Crytek isn't going to do a damn thing about it after how long it took them to even do the most basic steps against Reshade.

Good call on how aim assist will make suspicious plays a dime a dozen. Crytek's gonna be flooded with cheater reports. Now no one will be able to tell if a suspicious death is due to...

A. awful hitreg
B. high latency
C. lucky shot
D. aim assist
E. actual cheats

What a cluster****.

I'm reminded of the fiasco that was Aim Assist on a game that died in less than a month : Hyperscape.

I have trust in Hunt Team, that's the reason I have stayed in the game for so long. This development has me worried but I will reserve my judgment for when it comes. Apparently on consoles AA is just for zombies and barrels, it's not PvP. If they stick to that we probably won't even see the difference, but if it becomes a regular Aim Assist you experience in single player games (which I always turn off cuz.. you know.. what's the point having something aim for you) then I have no idea what they are thinking.

All on top of Kill Views being inaccurate, spectating being inaccurate, dmg report being inaccurate and no kill cams lmao Like it's astonishing in 2023 to play a PVP where every single aspect is chalked up to not working correctly lmao

That's the thing, they aren't with this decision. But then again, we already knew they haven't been thinking through their actions for some time now. No need to when people will happily buy cosmetic DLC and shower them with money that's clearly not being repurposed back into the game.

They probably are trying to kill their game definitely. Good.

Holy swamp gas! I didn't realize there also were issues with kill views and damage reports. Fan-♥♥♥♥♥♥♥-tastic.

Speaking of damage reports, I've experienced some really funky ♥♥♥♥ with limb (non-head/chest) damage, especially with shotguns. I swear, sometimes arms, legs, shoulders and crotches act like Kevlar in this game. They should flatten damage across the whole body except for the head.

Indeed... the number of times i witnessed arms protecting the head of a crouching player... This game is full of ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. An amazing idea and base finished with piss

The stream that was done yesterday has the Devs discussing it. You can easily access it from your library by click on Hunt, or just click the news section for an obvious and easy link to it.
