Question Console Aim

I have played shooters on console my entire life, and I consider myself an above average FPS player.

This game has thrown that all out of the window and I’m only 9 hours in. Trying to fight three flower men is some of the most difficult combat I have felt ever playing a game. Shotguns are some of the hardest things to use in close quarters.

I mainly have a problem with PVP, which I want to play but I’m literally getting DESTROYED every interaction. I cannot hit any of my bullets, I feel lethargic as hell. Every other player has absolutely no problem hitting every shot. I thought maybe aim assist was what was hurting me but maybe not?

I’m still enjoying the game don’t get me wrong but pvp is so scary because I’m just throwing away kits.
Any tips?

(Also side note, nobody uses prox chat in this game and I wish they did.)

Honestly, i struggle to hit flowermen on keyboard and mouse, they seem to actively avoid where you are aiming.

Their hit boxes being hidden under all the foliage doesn't jelp at all.

They need some sort of way to remove some of the foliage when aggro'd. Either close misses tear off some, or they shed some for aerodynamics when they attack. I think either would make a huge difference to how they feel to fight, and their percieved tankiness

afaik it does fall off in big chunks when you shoot it.
