I say this as a PC gamer. Shooting just feels more satisfying.

Having less control over aiming is definitely way more satisfying

the only time i would agree with that is for games that don't allow you to freely move and aim with mouse/keyboard like RE4

If you just want to be really casual about it. Streaming onto your living room TV while lounging on the couch, sure.

If you want to play to the best of your ability and be more accurate, then no.

Yeah, it's more satisfying with an actual trigger.

Pointing and clicking to fight just feels like competitive internet browsing.

depends on if it's a dominant strategy
in resident evil 6, for example, it's much more efficient to quickshot and go in for a melee attack than just pointing and clicking, and you get i-frames on top of that

You can usually turn that off.

Fact is, actually firing a gun in the game feels better with a controller as they have triggers.

With a mouse it's just clicking.

Because you're playing against other XB1 users with controllers, who also have auto-aim.

Against PC players, you'd get trounced.

Probably because it's a janky ass early access game with everyone else on the same janky ass playing field. Where people tolerate getting stuck on a blade of grass.

Good luck playing something like Doom or Wolfenstein or even Halo with no aim assist.

No you can't. There might be an option to turn off auto-lock when you use ADS but all console FPS games need aim assist. Basically sticky aim when you put the cursor over enemies.

I find fps literally unplayable on console due to lack of precision, so no, controllers are not better than m+k.

But there isn't auto aim on Xbox PUBG.


With or without auto-aim players on PC would make you their bitch if you're using a controller.

You are way too defensive over this subject.


It's fine if that's your preference. I'm sure some people prefer the Wii steering wheel with steering assist too.

Doesn't make it better. It's objectively less accurate and slower.

Motion control aiming closes the gap but I doubt anyone is arguing for that here.

Again, PUBG has no aim assist.


So? PUBG isn't popular because of sublime controls and shooting mechanics.

And it can be turned off on console games.


In the majority of games they cannot. And you'd be putting yourself in a major disadvantage if you can.

mouse makes it boring imo. Turns what's supposed to be a fast-paced experience into a point and click game. Way too easy. Makes me feel like i'm playing Myst or something.

I agree. Honestly, I can't recall the last shooter I played where I thought, "this controller needs more buttons". It may have been true in the SNES era, but nowadays, even the fucking control sticks are buttons.

Keyboard and mouse makes you suck at controller for it. I now do terribly at console games I used to breeze through because I got used to the other way and now dual analog sticks is hard again.

I remembered a lot of people complaining that Prey and Wolfenstein 2 are too hard and not fun. I honestly think a lot of that is due to slower aiming and inventory management from people playing on console. Both of these games were ace on PC.
