In theory, this could actually reduce pub stomping but it's too soon to tell. It sounds like the aim assist fix may have been a good thing. simply false. good players are actually hindered by aim assist, and any competitive player worth their salt in this game has it off. it would be different if we ever had a functioning, proper aim assist, but it is one of the things they have never been able to nail down
Since CCP's aim assist in Dust has never been good and as of Uprising, has not been on, therefore, it didn't matter if the player was competitive or not, good or bad, whether aim assist was on or off. Because it was bad in the beginning and off in Uprising, no one can determine whether it would actually help or hurt a player, good or bad, competitive or not. Yes you are correct, it would be different if we had a good aim assist, and that's what CCP is trying to give us with 1.4.
Time will tell if CCP has aim assist working so we don't know yet how it will affect players. BUT, if aim assist is still bad then it doesn't help anyone. If it does work properly as other games have it, then it offers the same assistance for those both good and bad at aiming. |

Obviously it is understood that a 10v6 or 16v5 would not apply since the teams are not evenly numbered. My original post states that theoretically pub stomping could be reduced, not eliminated. That also does not mean that pub stomping will necessarily be affected at all, only that it could possibly be reduced. |
