aim assist on pc and forced mouse smoothing in game

why don’t just lock the game to 120fps max for pc users to give them the same aim assist as console players on a controller , this way pc players are not excluded and it makes it fair for everybody . this way pc players will complain less about aim assist

there is also another issue , mouse smoothing is forced in the game . even if you disable it in the config files in the game directory its ignored when the game starts up . if you don’t want that give us at least the option in mouse settings in the game to disable mouse smoothing and mouse acceleration , it makes aiming for kbm players worse and its irritating . this is why i hate unreal engine 5 , it messes with your aim as kbm player …

playing on a controller is a choice in 2026 , every console has the option to put a mouse and keyboard on it . its not because they are lazy to learn to aim with mouse and stubborn to learn it that you have to give them legal aimbot , that is what it is with how strong you made it on console . its insane how good there aim is on just a controller , we pc players don’t even have the option to have a aim assist like they have . its very simple , you made the aim assist insane on console or you have a big cheating issue with cronus and titan v2 on remote play . personaly i think more that it is a cheating issue , i play together with controller players and there aim assist does not stick like that . the pc player base in casual is 30% , i encounter 90% of players with insane aim . something is very wrong here …

and on top of that you force mouse smoothing in the game for kbm , its like fighting against your mouse . the game has also direct x 12 issues and frame drops , that frame drop de-accelerates my aiming in that framedrop because our aim is linked to the frames . once you start to move fast and turn in a game the framedrop messes up my aiming . epic realy messed up everything in many ways with unreal engine 5 …

and here another point , whats the point to let cheaters play for weeks and do a mass bans after that time ? 1 hour later they are back with a fresh account and new cheats and spoofer and can play for weeks again , the new cheats are developed in that window of time you give them and ready to be used when the ban is given . the game is free to play so they don’t have to buy the game and the cheats are already payed for , you lost the war against cheaters . most of your player base is cheating now and banning them all is a huge profit loss , the only reason i see to evade this in games is to only play games that have to be buyed again after the ban . it lowers the amount of cheaters because not everyone can afford it , i’m looking forward to mw4 and once that comes out i’l wait and play that until unreal engine 6 will be released and hopefully most issues for pc players will be resolved with it in fortnite for kbm players …

a suggestion to take control of the cheating issue . make new accounts pay for the game , ask for 40€ for the game and the accounts that already exit don’t have to pay . do minimum every 2 weeks a mass ban , you will cripple most cheaters financially . only accounts that are 6 month old can play tournaments and they have to link it with a phone number that is no pre-paid like activision does in cod . you have your player base so why worry , other people and kids will want to join the others that play it and you make money out of it and keep the cheaters away with this . this is the only way to get control back and resolve the cheating issue , the way you do it now you will never resolve the cheating issue …
