That’s not AA that’s causing that. The culprit to blame is Reticle Friction. It’s the only advantage Controllers get over M&k Everything else caters to M&k.

  • They have to make the reticle sticky on controller Otherwise 99% wouldn’t be able to hit a thing! Controllers are, by design, not optimal for shooter games or even for aiming in general. Making precise movements with just two thumbsticks can take years of practice to build muscle memory & as age catches up, that hand/eye movement deteriorates. A mouse, on the other hand, is much easier to use and more accurate - one could view it as an extension of their hand.

I was just simply explaining to OP what’s causing the pull off one target onto another.

  • I knew that you knew I guess I was replying as to why & posting it in the wrong reply area 😄

  • Actually no. It's 2 different things. Reticle Friction is what tracks your target for you. ADS and walk left to right in front of someone. Without touching the looking stick. That's friction. It's slightly amplified when using the stick to adjust movement. AA is the hit cone of a bullet that magnitizes to the head or body based off how close you were to the target. Same category but not the same thing

  • Even if you want to word it like that, they are still separate. As we both said. 2 different things.

  • [quote][quote]That’s not AA that’s causing that. The culprit to blame is Reticle Friction.

And M&k does NOT get reticle Friction at all. They’re not the same thing. This has been explained at nauseam by the Bungie dev team.

This has been explained at nauseam by the Bungie dev team.[/quote] Both reticle stickiness and bullet magnetism are types of AA. The aim assist stat in game affects reticle stickiness (controller only) and bullet magnetism.
