Re: Console Players Will Need to Learn How to Shoot as Overwatch 2 Disables Aim Assist in Crossplay

@BartoxAbrasiveness I can't speak to the impact in Halo or OW as I barely touched those games. But my experience in MW19 was that the advantage offered by KBM was largely ergonomic, and in some cases even feeling handicapped in comparison. Pistol rounds in gunfight for instance, when full autoing at range (particularly in MW2 beta because of the new 'wobblier' recoil and ridiculous muzzle smoke) and when stunned. Stun grenades have a bigger impact on mouse for some reason (learned about that in MW19 but apparently has been a thing for many games prior).

This is all mostly due to the egregious aim assist. There are even clips of aim assist tracking players through smoke, walls and one particularly outrageous clip from the MW2 beta where a stunned player managed to track, at full speed, a sprinting player and kill them.

It has also been my theory that the games aim assist actually works to mitigate CoD's 'not infamous enough' hitbox drift, where as KBM users get to eat ***** in that department.

Re: PS Plus, PS Now Merged Service Revealed, Goes Live in June

Players - 'We want to play games we already own on new systems, or buy games we didn't get to play in their time on new systems'

Sony - 'SUBSCRIPTION SERVICE BABY AND PS3 GAMES ARE STILL STREAM ONLY'

I'm glad emulation has come so far, you can play ps1/2 games for free with upscaled visuals and improved performance, even on a mediocre pc.

Also glad that I kept my PS3 around.
