I was so excited when I heard Halo was coming to PC because I have been playing PC games for about 10 years and don’t own any consoles or gear anymore.
But after discovering the obvious advantage that controller players have over KbM I just can’t play any longer without feeling like I’m being cheated by the aim assist. So I guess I’ll go buy a controller this evening.
Sad, I thought this game was made for PC players as well.
its the same aim assist.
the cursor slows when getting close to a target,
slows away from a target,
follows the target,
and moves to a target.
comp and console are 100% the same programming code.
Sorry man, but you’re wrong. There is no aim assist on KbM. You can test it yourself in the Academy. Do the Weapons Drills. The easiest challenge with a sniper rifle. Don’t shoot the bot that appears. Instead zoom in with your scope and pan horizontally across the screen, being sure to pass over the bot’s head. You will see the reticle slow and stick on the head of the bot. Now do the same with your mouse and you’ll see no such thing, it just glides right past it.
It’s pretty well documented online that KbM is at a significant disadvantage. There are statements from professional players like Snipe3down saying that it the aim assist on controller would need to be nerfed to be fair. The top 100 KbM players in the world are barely more accurate than the lower 50th percentile of controller players. It’s way too unbalanced.
This thread is just a massive cope. First of all , Halo is a console shooter. Its a game made for consoles. The “aim assist” you keep banging on about is as it was since the beginning of this franchise and exists in every shooter that’s on console.
Console players literally have to aim with a single thumb, meanwhile you have a whole damn hand ,5 fingers and all the muscles in it to refine your aim.
If you think playing with a controller is going to magically make you a better player and get you to onyx rank in a single day, You’re sadly mistaken . As the old quote goes “It ain’t the ride but the rider that matters” .
The real solution would be to remove crossplay. Xbox players never asked for it and don’t need it. If that happened xbox players won’t have to suffer cheaters in ranked crossplay and ill informed PC players will have one less thing to complain about -Yoink!- they get to keep their cheaters. WIN WIN for everyone.
Funny how the facts disagree with you. There are plenty of stats to show that KbM doesn’t compete with controller. And I actually did go out an get a controller. Before I purchased it I was STUCK in Platinum 5, I once or twice climbed to Platinum 6, but that was my cap. I got the controller last week and am currently a Diamond 3 and climbing. So yeah, you’re just wrong bud.
This story again having a whole arms worth of range of motion is a huge advantage over controller player we get aim assist you get wall hacks anti recoil rapid fire aim bots sever selection yep you’re the one getting cheated
I don’t cheat. I know a lot of PC players that don’t cheat. Console players have cheats as well btw.
