  1. The difference between m&k and controller is the same difference between drawing with a pencil and paper and an etch-a-sketch. Controller users having aim-assist makes controller even with m&k users since they dont need the assistance since they have the full range and dexterity of their arm while we only use a thumb. That means tap strafing for pc players is a bonus that controller players don’t get that bonus therefore its unfair. Watch any top tier controller player, and they cant do that tap strafe shit on all the vertical ziplines in fragment, while m&k users are able to clown on other players by abusing that ability.

  2. I respect timmys argument but i gotta disagree. He says that tap strafing wont kill his opponent, and yea it wont directly kill them, but ive seen a shit ton of clips of controller players getting clowned by m&k players 180 slide jumping on them and the controller player not being able to turn around fast enough due to not being able to flick like u can on m&k. So in the end, tap strafing doesnt kill an opponent, but it can get them killed. If that makes sense.

  3. The best part about this is that the casual community doesn't have a single clue about tap-strafing, they don't know any of the comp players or give a shit at the end of the day bc they only play an hour a day lmfaooo

  5. It's very sad to see that tap-strafing is getting is getting removed. I won't even learn that movement because the PC I have right now cannot run Apex Legends. And it's probably gonna be a while till I have the money to buy a new one.

    Oh well, I guess I'll settle with clunky movement and aim assist.

  6. i like how they remove tap strafe but doesn't remove hackers 😂. If they remove tap strafe we need quick detonating stun grenade like CoD so it can disable aim assist for a brief moment LOL. real good controller player solo squad wiped my team cuz we got picked 1 by 1 and his accuracy was higher than 90% and my accuracy was dog shit 60% cuz i missed half of my shots so he killed me while i only broke armor LOL

  7. I don't really see tap strafing being removed as a big deal. It's genuinely a broken mechanic that's been abused for so many seasons now. Taxi for example, being able to just literally fly around on a jump pad making 180 turns to repeat the process while killing people…..Hopefully they introduce new mechanics, but me being a console player, this literally doesn't affect me whatsoever. Also, i don't even find Tap Strafing to be a "skill gap". It's literally a mechanic that's being abused by those that have learned every way to use it.

  8. Funny thing is, you kinda can tap strafe on console if you have your controls set up right, it’s not as consistent as as good as PC but the amount of times I shift momentum round corners and of jump pads has saved my life

  9. The problem with tap strafing is that it's a bug and wasn't intended. Now you have these top percent pros abusing a bug to outplay other Majority Bottom percent casual MnK players who have no idea that tap strafing is even in the game while a pro with a Smurf is abusing a bug in bot lobbies ruining everyone's experience. You can blame the smurfers for getting tap strafed removed. Respawn is going to cater to casuals with a job who drop money into the game than no lifers who constantly create free to play Smurf accounts.

  10. Tap strafe is a reasonably newly exploited mechanic and was not intentional. Aim assist has always been in the game and was intentionally put in. Respawn has made the right decision. PLEASE shut up about aim assist! It has literally nothing to do with this patch! The aim assist argument is based purely on the PC players salty feelings about this patch.

  11. Be careful with your steps respawn, you decide to remove an Unique things on your game, and maybe meanwhile the other dev from another games is trying to make that another tap strafe move in their games. You guys remove it because the console players can't do that, and complaining of these. What a stupid solutions. Why don't the dev trying to make the tap strafe works on console too ??

  12. Oh no there’s no more impossible physics breaking movement! Only jump pad, grapple slingshots, gravity lifts, jet packs, super speed, portals, zip lines, wall bounces, etc. no more movement sad face

  13. imperialhal comparing tap straffing to aim assist on controller i feel isnt a comparison because if one of best keyboard/mouse player plays a the best controller player, Keyboard/mouse wins 10/10 becuase you are controlling everything unlike controller where you are controlling about 75percent of it and using the other 25% for aim assist which sometimes fks you by not tracking all the time.

  14. Y'all act like this was something the Devs expected everyone to do. No, changing a keybind to scrollwheel to abuse how many times you can hit W is not something skill based. Where its applied? Sure maybe, but the fact still stands that mashing w/binding it to scroll wheel so there is no real effort involved is not intentional. Y'all weren't doing this before seasons existed. This has only been discovered relatively recently. I can't accept the argument that its a 'core mechanic' when it wasn't even a mechanic discovered or explained at the conception of the game. Y'all need to chill.

  15. Controller has only ever had aim assist. I love Tim but no, only pro player have the benefit of aim assist. I don't really care that M&K is broken but if they have to suffer over (and this is just if it was just tap straifing) one movement mechanic being removed so be it. They have so many advantages. M&K having ONE thing removed shouldn't mean aim assist should be nerft. Imagine the only thing controller has being nerft even just a little because of one thing being nerft.

  16. Im on consle, but all im about to say is, turn. off. crossplay, im pretty sure they added that in season 6 or 5, and i think its still in the game, so just turn it off.

  17. Look I'm an xbox player right I may sound biased but look they will most likely proceed with tap straffing because honestly they make more money off console players than PC I guarantee it and that's why they would support the majority of their profit margin over pc mainly due the fact less people play pc than console due to the fact console is easier to obtain.

  18. I like what Timmy and Abrelelie both said. Either make it as a core movement where anyone can do it without keybinds or what Timmy said and nerf aim assist a certain amount as a trade off. Im on console so i never really ran into tap strafe in pubs(im bad and don't care for ranked due to it lol) so i don't care either way myself if it stayed or left

  19. tap strafe wasnt meant to in the game. Your scroll wheel makes the game put in the rapid forward input that was never meant to be in the game so i get why they are removing it pros are just big cry babies when something that they like gets removed.
