Controller aim assist is insane (apex legends)

Been playing apex on my controller for like 3 days.

Already dropping 15+ kills in games

Shooting is literally so easy, I stayed up til like 2 am the other night just grinding, got it down pretty quick

I'm terrible at looting and everything else, need to get that muscle memory down for looting and healing,.getting used to using paddles again

No wonder everyone is switching inputs, this is ez mode. The only thing keeping apex fair is controllers have limited movement compared to mnk

Am I on my way to being a roller God? Can i still break into the pro scene at 35 years old?

Tell that to all the pro players who switched to controller and all the pro teams specifically recruiting controller players

I've explained it before but I'll do it again:

Mnk is generally the superior input for shooters. It was this way for a long time before cross play existed.

Certain games have powerful aim assist that can actually trump using a mouse and keyboard

Aim assist friendly games with pro controller players:

Cod
Apex
Halo

Games with no aim assist where controller is literally dogchit compared to mnk:

Counter strike
Valorant
Overwatch
Pubg

The aim assist in apex legends is so powerful it's considered a better input by many pro players because almost all apex fights are close range where aim assist dominates.

It's a pretty simple concept to understand I think

agreed & this is why I really liked Halo 5 & now Halo Infinite... Controller aim assist at a minimum

Its been a while, but I think Killzone handled it the right way as well.

Yeah I think it says alot when the best and most winning player in apex legends switches inputs.

Most of the biggest fraggers in apex are controller players.

Input based matchmaking when….

Xdefiant is gonna have it at least

I have COD on PC and PS5 and play both inputs and do about the same, but I’m not pro level, just average/casual.

My opinion for the average player it doesn’t matter. Want to go pro in aim assist games, ok yea plug in a controller.
