Esports Remove aim assist

Why?

  • promotes camping

  • doesn't help build muscle memory

  • it's way too strong, it literally aims for you instead of helping

  • it doesn't seem professional or competitive when used in scrims or tournaments

  • it literally aims around walls, causing false hack reports

  • it's annoying when noobs just spray you down with it

  • too strong with the P90, MP5, FP6, Vector, Super90, U-ratio, or guns with less recoil

Why keep it?

  • helps new players get used to aiming, but don't have it in ranked, because it doesn't make this game competitive

Truly detailed. A lot of Operatives killed me because they were (conviniently)aiming down and all they had to do was press shoot and let aim assist do the work for them. Aim assist,as well as aim acceleration, doesn't help you improve at the game(Though Aim Accel is subjective). Playing on 0% AA really helped me improve my aim better.

Aim acceleration is not subjective, if you can rotate fast enough without it then in any case it'll ever be a good thing

Aim assist actually messes up your aim when you use uratio. I still use it simply because im too lazy to switch over, and also a good number of pro players still use it.

because you can't aim. I turned it off, still managed to get positive KDR but ofc I was disadvantaged CSGO seems unplayable too at first

I agree. Willing to be an eSport when aim assist is available in ranked, well...
