False, as a gamepad user who has played competitively vs KB/m users in PC games, that's just false. The only limitation ds3 users have is unaquired skill using a controller from using aim assist in other console games.

Playing with both I have come to the understanding with a keyboard mouse I can perform a 360 rotation 2 if not 3 times faster then with a ds3. The strafing mechanics with a keyboard are far superior to ds3 allowing movement speed to constantly be at 100%. Target aquisition is improved because of these 2 factors allowing for quicker response time to a situation. Only thing I found hindering with a mouse is the equipment wheel. I do believe being a logi with KB/m is a nightmare.

So what do you feel needs to be done to Aim Assist, if anything? Reduce its effectivness? Limit it to High-Sec battles, only? Remove it? I would at least like to see it removed from Low-Sec battles, it really does make a difference in 1v1s, and anyone who says it doesn't has simply never turned it off. So, what do the candidates feel need to be done? Fatal Absolution Operation - LVL 5 Fatal Absolution Pro. - LVL 5 FOTM Abuser, outta mah way Nyain San!

It does detrack from the competitive side of who has the true skills. Removing aim assist will reduce the NPE because some new players have no skill and rely entirely upon it to succeed. Personally I believe aim assist isn't a problem. The superstars still shine and everyone else gets a little crutch. Sure its annoying but there is far more important things than tweaking aa. What about limiting it to high-sec? That means the NPE remains undamaged, and Low-Sec battles like FW, and PC become more competitive.

Specifically with the SCP, really, I can empty a whole clip into someone with that thing and they wont take damage.

Which basically only slows down the movement of your crosshairs / sight as it passes over an enemy.
