Note: To quickly identify the updated section I've noted it below and separated it with a line break.So what exactly is Aim Assist (referred to as Target Assist in some games) and how does it work? Here's the best video I found with a quick search on youtube. It's a great video and I would encourage all to watch even if you believe you already understand how Aim Assist works.
Ok, so why would I want settings to combat AA, isn't AA a GOOD thing? First off, YES AA actually is a GOOD thing and it does help you to not over shoot your target. The problem is AA is often so strong on consoles that when used with something as precise as a mouse it can feel like it's fighting against you at times. There are typically Three scenarios that cause AA to become a problem when using a mouse.
1.) Range of motion! AA is built to help a controller user stay on a target, using a range of motion of only about an inch. Compare that with a Mouse that may have a range of motion of up to 12 inches or MORE, depending on your settings (dpi, sens,curves,etc.) and you start to see a more accurate pic of why LOW sens players will fight AA ALOT more then high sens players will.
2.) Aiming at multiple targets! I'm sure EVERYONE has come across this problem at some point in time. You aim at a group of targets and your cross hair is drawn towards the wrong target. Keep in mind, this doesn't necessarily mean targets within the same distance or side by side. You could be aiming for a target just a few meters away and another target could cross your sights, either in front or behind the target you're aiming at and AA will often try to pull you towards the secondary target. You may not even see the other target, but you'll feel its AA.
3.) When you ADS just outside of the Enemies hit box! Unless your aim is dead nuts every time you ADS on a target you're going to occasionally experience an issue where it feels like your cursor is stuck in the mud as you're trailing a target. This is what has been referred to as the "AA Bubble effect." It's what happens when you're cursor speed is drastically slowed by Aim Assist that was created by the developer to make aiming possible with a controller. Think about that for a second. This slow down effect was created for thumb stick aiming, not a precision mouse. What's the difference? Simple, one word for ya "Velocity!" The amount of slow down needed to control Thumb stick aiming can often feel like your hitting a wall with a mouse. This is because you're typically not creating as much velocity with your mouse as you would be with a Stick. Why? Because you don't have to, it's a precision aiming device.
These three scenarios are why I started creating Anti-Aim Assist curves. As mentioned prior, when I say Anti-Aim Assist, I don't mean NO Aim Assist at all. I mean Aim Assist that feels helpful and controlled, not overpowering or intrusive.
High sens players will feel less Aim Assist then low sens players. That is purely because of the velocity issue I spoke of. So this thread will probably be more appealing to mid and low sens players. Although I believe the style of curves I'm going to show you will be helpful to everyone that is experiencing issue's 1,2 or 3 above.
Ok ... enough BS, sorry for the looong intro. I just want everyone to understand what this thread is about and how it could potentially be helpful. So on to the setup!
If you enjoy my style of game play then you're really going to enjoy these curves. If you're not familiar with my style of play, here's a brief run down and what you should expect from these curves.
- I play with Aim Assist [ON] ALWAYS!
- I want SOME AA but not too much, I want it to help me get on target but not mess with my aim.
- I want to get in the hit box, then track the target and get out of the hit box and to another enemy without fighting for control of my crosshairs.
FOR ALL UPDATED INFO, PLEASE READ EVERYTHING BELOW THIS LINE!________________________________________________________________________________________________
IMPORTANT!- All Setups were created with APEX, 12,000 DPI, 1000hz (Mouse and XIM), Sync Off & Common Sync (Mix). Here's a link where you can match DPI, if running at a different value then 12000. http://www.csgosetup.com/dpi-calculator/
- All setups were made on the latest firmware - https://community.xim.tech/index.php?topic=72146.0
- These curves work for every game that utilizes Aim Assist, you may just have to fine tune them to your liking.
- If you're over aiming or getting stuck outside the hitbox then raise or lower your sens until it feels right to you.
PLEASE READ!Here's how to use this setup CORRECTLY! The Percentage next to a curve represents the amount of speed increase you can expect with the curve. This is determined by first finding the value you use with no curve that feels good to you. For example. When playing Black Ops 4 "With NO curve", I like my ADS Sens set to 60. I like this number because AA feels pretty spot on for almost all engagements at this sensitivity. Now that I have my Sensitivity set with NO curve I'm going to determine my new sensitivity with the curve by subtracting whatever % is given with that curve.
So let's say I gave you the value of 50%. For me that would look like this... 60 - 50% = New Value (30). I would then change my sens to 30 when 1st applying this curve. However, this should be considered a base line. You must keep in mind that the curves have a ramp up time, so you may want to fine tune your sensitivity, based on how it feels to you. Here you go, All the curves you'll ever need to combat Aim Assist. Please see the Link at the bottom of the page for Full configs.
Here's a full config that I use just to store all of the below curves. You can either save this full config to your library for easy access to all the curves or copy them individually below.
