NICKMERCS weighs in on aim assist debate in Apex Legends: Controller vs KBM Respawn\/YouTube: More NICKMERCSTop Twitch streamer NICKMERCS has weighed in on the age-old aim assist debate once again, this time with talks of a potential change coming to controller players in Apex Legends. After nerfing the popular tap strafing movement mechanic in Apex, developers Respawn said that they would \u201ccontinue to evaluate\u201d controller aim assist in the game. Obviously, this has renewed the aim assist debate and got many controller players worried about the prospect of the feature being nerfed \u2014 with keyboard & mouse players insisting that an aim assist nerf is necessary. Nick has always placed himself firmly on the side of controllers and with his newfound obsession with Apex, he had to make his feelings known on the subject. Respawn will “”continue to evaluate”” aim assist in Apex Legends, and devs will discuss the current balance of controller vs mouse & keyboard this week. “”Players should not feel forced to use a specific input type.”” pic.twitter.com\/NQDBdI31Ao \u2014 Apex Legends News (@alphaINTEL) September 1, 2021 After Respawn said this, Nick posted a video to his More NICKMERCS YouTube channel discussing the idea of possible nerfs incoming. \u201cIn this video, we\u2019ve got to come together,\u201d he explained to his viewers. \u201cTake the keyboard and mouse guys, put them over there. Controller gang, I\u2019m talking to you. \u201cApex Legends put out a tweet, they\u2019re discussing the way aim assist works in Apex Legends. I don\u2019t know what changes they\u2019re making, I don\u2019t know if they want to nerf or buff aim assist\u2026 I don\u2019t give any cr*p about these keyboard and mouse players. Don\u2019t care in the littlest bit.\u201d He goes on to say that \u201cit\u2019s funny all these keyboard and mouse guys be talking about aim assist being broken, right? But they\u2019re on keyboard and mouse\u2026 \u201c Nick has always made his stance clear on aim assist, from the early Fortnite days right through to Warzone and Apex Legends, and he\u2019s definitely not giving it up any time soon. If changes are made to aim assist, you can guarantee there\u2019ll be a whole lot of community discussion surrounding it \u2014 and Nick will certainly make his feelings known.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
