Some people are salty because "We have every advantage against console players" isn't true with aim assist in some situations. I think console definitely had the advantage in close range combat (if you knew how to aim properly). A lot of what console could do in close range with aim assist was impossible for a good player to do on PC just because fast, close range tracking is extremely difficult even for PC pros and it seemingly is easy for controller players.

Not saying I agree with this patch at all. 5s is way too much. 1.5s would make it much more balanced in my opinion. Or just reverting this change until they come up with a much better change.
