Shroud urges Fortnite to split controller and mouse & keyboard players Mixer: Shroud \/ Epic GamesPopular Mixer streamer Michael \u2018shroud\u2019 Grzesiek has thrown his thoughts into the mix in regards to the ever-growing aim assist debate in Fortnite. After Fortnite was initially launched, the top players all played on PC with a mouse and keyboard but, at some point, controller players started migrating from their consoles, and problems started to arise. Before long, mouse and keyboard players found that aim assist was getting too much for them, and ever since, the debate over whether aim assist or controller players should even be allowed to play against mouse & keyboard has thrived. While Shroud has discussed aim assist and its issues briefly in the past, especially as it pertains to Apex Legends and Warzone, but he rarely speaks out about Fortnite, which is really where the issue spawns from. Now, though, he\u2019s discussed the recent changes to aim assist made in the v12.61 Fortnite patch and set his side. \u201cIt\u2019s really simple what the issue with aim assist is,\u201d he said during a livestream. \u201cEvery single player that is competing for money has the right to complain. They\u2019re totally in the right to be mad.\u201d He went on: \u201cThere\u2019s advantages to both mouse & keyboard and controller. The fact that there\u2019s an advantage in controller to mouse & keyboard, and the other way around, makes no sense that it\u2019s even in place to happen to have any sort of competition for money.\u201d \u201cThe whole point of competition is fair play. Competitive integrity. Because they both have their pros and cons, they shouldn\u2019t exist in the same world.\u201d Shroud goes on to say that \u201cthere\u2019s no way anyone can argue against\u201d what he\u2019s said, and the idea of splitting the two inputs has been discussed plenty of times within the community. Whether or not this is something Epic ever actually implement in Fortnite is hard to say. The game has always been based around accessibility for everyone, and they\u2019ve not made any drastic changes based on aim assist complaints, so it\u2019s hard to tell whether they\u2019ll do anything major now. Regardless, the debate rages on and it may never truly die until players are separated \u2013 which, ironically, is exactly what shroud thinks should happen.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
