I can’t count the number of times I’ve died because the game decided to prioritize what I should be shooting. If possible, 343i needs to add the ability to disable aim assist. Anyone agree with me?
But then you won’t be able to kill anything at all…

You underestimate my aiming, my friend.

wow
You’ll miss it when it’s gone.
But seriously, aim assist helps infinitely times more than it hinders. Sure, it prioritizes that target instead of that one, but it also makes sure you actually shoot the guys head and not his ear. Or that when you turn around to face someone shooting you, you land with your crosshair on him and not the air to his right.
If you hate aim assist so much, go to PC. There is little to none there as they don’t need it. Also, I find it strange your complaining about the aim assist in this game when it’s had one of the smallest presence in the game than it has in years. The devs even said they toned it down in comparison to the previous Halo games.

Lol, maybe so but still, aim assist is ridiculously helpful. I know it is annoying when you lose a nice Overkill because it aimed at the wrong guy, but it really helps a ton.

Sure as hell doesn’t seem like it’s been turned down. I still have my guy turn away just as quickly from targets to face other targets than in any other console shooter.
You’ve got a playtime of >11 hours. I doubt you made enough progress in the game yet to judge how useful the aim assist actually is. Your performance would be terrible in comparision, no matter how well you did before.
I would want the option just to see what everything would be like, however if it did happen I would probably suck so bad that I would be shunned by the community forever lol. I mean have you played Halo CE with the eye patch skull active?! Living nightmare…I couldn’t believe how incredibly horrible my aim was.

343 possibly could have been talking about Halo 4s aim assist, which was insane as we all know.

It isn’t that noticeable, but it is. I’ve noticed it only because of how much gaming I’ve done on PC and console and know the subtleties of aim assist.

Are you kidding? I always turn it on (especially during Flood sections as Chief can look completely upwards when an infection form jumps him.)

You underestimate how important Aim assist is in a game like Halo. If you’re playing Cod or BF, that’s fine because it only take a shot and a half to kill someone. But in Halo, a newbie tiered strafe would be enough to outplay even the best of them.
I wonder what it would be like if 343 added a no aim assist playlist. I would definitely play it to see what it’s like.
You need aim assist (and other helps) when you have a low frame rate and when you are using a controller.
Halo 5 needs less help because it’s moved up to 60fps… but you still have to account for the controller handling.

Shooting at mid to long range would be a hellish nightmare.
I guess 60fps would make it a lot better than previous incarnations… but still, it imagine it would be a jarring and soul crushing experience.

I doubt it would be as bad as getting spawn trapped in Warzone. 
Wouldn’t it be equivalent to trying to shoot a teammate? Fackin hard…
You can turn it off in halo ce anniversary. Even on easy the game is annoying. Ill keep aim assist on

You realize Halo 5 is far superior when it comes to aim assist.
Halo 4’s was awful. It was pure bullet magnetism. Shooting someone on the side that you should’ve missed but, you get a hide shot.
