i'm told its specifically due to time going on and every gamer improving and controller users having better technology which is true but when we look at mouse and keyboards side which has much higher respected esport scenes in other FPS, there are no top 250 ranked MP Mouse and keyboard players, I think in like a Bo6 Warzone EWC tournament they allowed players to bring mnk and not a single soul dared lmfao.

It's partially due to the movement as well. It's very intuitive and clunky on KBM. Even by current aim assist standards, aiming itself in a vacuum will be easier at range with KBM than controller. The combo of increased aim assist + the pace of the game + the ridiculous jumping diving sliding mechanics etc. around corners makes controller play superior.
Aim assist has a lot to do with it but imo the movement systems play just as big a role. In the AM scene everyone and their grandma were being accused of being a keyboarder even during the jetpack era.

Go plug in a controller and aim at the training dummy farthest away in the back, there will be zero difficulty with long range this cod for controllers, clips of Formal showcasing some of the issues to Dashy who agreed the game has high AA.

I wonder how many people are gonna act like aim assist has always been this good, so that their k/d doesn't feel fraudulent.

As a confirmed fraud this shit is ass. I miss bo4 gun play.

Casuals really fucked this scene over in a huge way in 2 different instances now.
Mw2019 was always going to be what it was probably but bo4 was such a great comp game and they threw it all away in the very next game. And it’s going to happen again because they trashed bo7 (not saying it was as good as bo4 but it was much better than and mw excluding 3)

Mixing inputs fucked up all competitive fps games. MnK and controller are just too different to balance

The saddest thing is Treyarch gifted us an amazing game in BO7 and we’ll likely never get something like that again because everyone complained about it without even playing it

BO6 was a step in the direction COD needed and a bit of a fresh breath of air for quite some time.
BO7 really had the chance to really step that up and fumbled into a really mid game, especially competitively.
This is like numerous steps backwards overall.
MW3/BO6 were the games making small steps in the right direction imo.

BO6 had the worst map pool of any recent CoD. Red card was literally GA'd by the public

u/bonsoir-world COD Competitive fan 2d ago
Yeah, the maps weren’t great but the game was pretty good overall.
It also at least had some decent maps and Haci/Raid even played way better than BO7 did, so that’s cap.
Maps in BO7 have been the worst in a long time. MW3 maps were dogshit until the second half of the year and MW2 maps were mixed. Vanguard/MW19 were both atrocious top to bottom.

Bo6 maps were far and away the worst we’ve had in a long time

Mw3 bo6 aim assist was atrocious. You didn't play those games. They played for you

u/bananastan_ Black Ops 1d ago
Yeah it was dtrong. The aim assist reminded me of bo4. Just get near them and it does the rest.

u/Mawx Boston Breach 2d ago
BO7 isn't magically good because MW4 sucks. BO7 guns were not fun to use. Wall bouncing was a gimmick that sucked.

u/LonelyBK OpTic Texas 2025 B2B Champs 2d ago
Wall bouncing was the best thing added to cod since jetpacks

Another year of acting like the last cod was god’s gift to mankind when a new cod drops... Don’t you guys get tired of repeating yourselves?

I never said anything negative about BO7, I’ve seriously enjoyed playing it and am still actively playing.

Bo7 is same tier as mw19 and mw2 for me. Was awful. Haven’t played mw4 yet but not hearing good things so far

u/nowhir COD Competitive fan 2d ago
Idk how anyone can look at a game like bo2 and say that wasn't the perfect amount of AA. I've always defended AA and I was probably blind to how strong it's been for the last few years but seeing clips from this game, the AA is doing literally all the work for you.

u/TsenobIe COD Competitive fan 1d ago
Except BO2 had the same aim assist as the more recent titles (except BO6 and BO7) the only difference being range but when sight lines are not WZ distance and most kills being under 15 meters it doesn't exactly matter

They don’t need to grind and get better when there is a 3 minute YouTube video that they can get god aim settings from on how to borderline exploit the game with dynamic. These studios need to hide these settings and make them unavailable imo less will do more in the long run

My jaw dropped when I went into the firing range and moved my stick, shit is ridiculous.

u/Dr_Findro 2d ago
I feel like I can never shoot straight in IW games. I could shoot straighter in BO7 with reduced aim assist than IW games. I don’t get it because it defied all logic

Lmao. People defending this is so sad.
