People always gonna cry about something. No doubt AA is stronger than in previous Battlefield games and actually even feels stronger then in the beta, although I’m not entirely sure about that as I went back to Halo for a little bit and could have just been my muscle memory tuned to that game instead but at the end of the day AA is available to everyone. If you think you’re losing gunfights because the other guy is using aimbot AA then go and use it yourself FFS, it’s as simple as that. In all reality you might find it’s not just the aimbot that’s separating the better players from the masses. It’s stupid to not be using AA then get mad about other players using it, if you’ve chosen to hobble yourself by turning off features available to everyone then deal with it. It makes the game more accessible to new and casual players, which despite what you hear around here is actually a good thing. Big series that make money don’t die. ---

I agree, aim assist is necessary. If it’s bothering you to die to the unfairness of aim assist, sure, turn it back on. I would argue the rotational assist is not properly assisting, but instead is creating a trigger happy playerbase that can’t aim, and allowing some skilled players a crutch to abuse. I want the “motion tracking” that is associated with the slowdown to be used for our main assist, it’s more intuitive for slow aiming/hardscoping, that’s how unskilled players aim. I want to help our new players, every new player I’ve showed the ropes have had trouble learning how to aim with the rotation, and I know I can abuse it. I want a better gameplay experience, a more meaningful skill gap, and a more understandable learning curve. ---

Valid points and well articulated. I understand where you’re coming from, and what you’re asking for is not ridiculous by any means. Don’t get me wrong if DICE were to turn AA down I would as a series veteran adjust accordingly. The reality is though AA is as strong as it is now in order to expand the playerbase and make the game more accessible to new players … whether this is working ATM as DICE intended I’m not entirely sure but the intention is clear. Battlefield has a reputation among casual gamers as being “too hard” … anything to ease the learning curve and prevent new players getting stomped on so hard they never come back is good for the life of the series. I’d almost be inclined to say some of the vets can’t handle getting killed by players they may deem beneath them but that’s just my opinion of course. ---

I say this again. Casual player dont know what aim assist is and try to aim himself instead of trusting aim assists. Then the assist screws him over. Then people will learn to abuse it and do it all the time. Or turn it off. So people refuse to play an fps multiplayer game without an aimbot? Its just stupid. ---

Yeah, because you call it trash, it automatically becomes trash. Excellent logic. Plenty of people enjoy Rainbow Six games, that doesn’t mean it’s trash, and it doesn’t mean it’s the greatest thing next to the invention of sliced bread either.

I’ve had aim assist off the entire time I’m played BF1 and I was curious about how it would be with it on so I played with it on for a few days. While I did have a few “I can’t believe I hit that guy” moments, it was fairly similar experience overall besides the game trying to choose targets for me. Walk into a room full of enemies and you can’t really make a decision on who to shoot because the game will pull you to one and then may switch you before that one is dead. That was enough to make it not worth it by itself. The experiment did highlight a couple of advantages for a casual player that plays a lot like myself. First it was easier to stay at my best aiming level all the time. With it on I can see how it would be harder to have my aim go completely potato because I didn’t get enough sleep the night before or because I’m just having a bad day. It also made the bad laggy server situations more tolerable because I wasn’t at a double disadvantage. Even with those advantages I switched it back off because it wasn’t worth it and I was happy that when I turned it off I was aiming well enough that I didn’t notice it being gone except in the detrimental situations like target selection. Would the added consistency over time make up for some hairy target selection situations and make my KD etc go up? Probably, but personally I’d rather be a lesser player with real stats than have know deep down inside that I’m not doing it by myself. ---

Aim assist can get you killed at times. If you come across multiple moving targets and it locks on to a secondary (less threatening) one. ---

The most amazing and rewarding Battlefield game is within grasp, but auto rotation is preventing us from having it. Dice, most of us want some aim assist, just not the op aimbot 3000 that is auto rotation. The marksman variants of medic guns and suppressive LMGs don’t have aimbot assist. Along with scoped sniper rifles, so why other guns ? Why do you feel the need to make some users aim for themselves but not others ? I’m not watching BF1 vids on YouTube anymore, Im watching Xbox one owners playing Bad Company 2 and BF3 and wishing BF1 had the same gunplay! ---

I understand where you’re coming from, and what you’re asking for is not ridiculous by any means. Don’t get me wrong if DICE were to turn AA down I would as a series veteran adjust accordingly. The reality is though AA is as strong as it is now in order to expand the playerbase and make the game more accessible to new players … whether this is working ATM as DICE intended I’m not entirely sure but the intention is clear.

Then it’s off for everyone after that… That’d help new players bed in to the game. Problem solved. Bobs your Aunty. Hmm I suppose the rank after which it is turned off can be debated but I do like the idea. ---

No doubt AA is stronger than in previous Battlefield games and actually even feels stronger then in the beta, although I’m not entirely sure about that as I went back to Halo for a little bit and could have just been my muscle memory tuned to that game instead but at the end of the day AA is available to everyone. > > > > > > > > > > If you think you’re losing gunfights because the other guy is using aimbot AA then go and use it yourself FFS, it’s as simple as that. In all reality you might find it’s not just the aimbot that’s separating the better players from the masses.

Yeah ofcourse, doesn’t matter what rank, whether it be 20, 30 or 40 but it should be turned off at a certain point. I think 30 is a reasonable number, that’s atleast 10 hours of gameplay, at least. Or implement a system where if you have both your aim assists off you receive more xp per kill, and also in the scoreboard show an icon for people using aim assist, so if that icons not next to someones name you can tell they’re actually genuinely good and not relying on aim assist lol… ---

One of the instances where I can say “CoD and Halo did it better”. Aiming in BF1 overall feels sluggish and sticky in comparison.
