Hi, I’m Fiirce. If you’ve played on PC consistently in NA you know who I am. Up until about 2 weeks ago, I played this game nearly every day since beta release, but I’ll get to the point.
I’ve been an outspoken opponent of aim assist in general ever since I started playing games. I always thought that it should be ME aiming, not anything else. I’ve spent hundreds of hours in CS:GO and aim trainers, and take pride in my aim.
Over the past month or so I’d heard people claim that bullet magnetism/aim assist existed for mouse and keyboard. I couldn’t feel it myself, and just brushed it off as something that “wouldn’t happen for mouse and keyboard”.
With the most recent patch notes, it has come to light that: “Improving the game’s aiming comfort is critical to make Hyper Scape more accessible and more welcoming for new players.... To maintain balance between Keyboard and Mouse (KBM) & Controller on PC, the level of aim-assist has been increased for KBM players on several weapons.”
I’ve stuck with Hyper Scape for a VERY long time, through many bad changes. Still, I was very excited for TDM to come out. Now, I cannot play the game in good conscience. Not only will I not actually know whether I’m hitting shots or if the computer is, but I’d also be a hypocrite supporting a game that ruins the integrity and purity of aiming with a mouse.
This isn’t meant to be offensive to controller players or anyone who supports aim assist, it’s just my opinion, and I think most players, controller or not, would agree that MnK players shouldn’t have aim assist.
I appreciate everyone I met in this community, but this is finally it for me. Fantastic community, great game out the gate. Unfortunately, I cannot support the direction it’s heading.
<3 you all - Fiirce
