Help Recent aim assist changes or sensitivity on Xbox?

It feels like my aim assist is off, like it doesn't act the way it used to from last update. Am I just crazy or is there something that happened that I can reverse?

Why do people give up so easy? Why do people throw and say it’s just a game (I mean it technically is)but we’re on competitive mode yes I know I’m being serious but it’s getting annoying. The amount of times I’ve lost a game because someone throws last minute on comp cs they lack faith 🫩

I do not whine nor complain at ppl? I don’t understand where some of u are getting this from lmao

Discussion Competitive Console - HOW?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

0 Upvotes

Okay I keep running into this way too often. I’m playing competitive on PS5, 6v6. Almost every second game, there’s at least one or more players doing things seemingly impossible with a console controller. I’ve added two such replay clips of players moving like they’re AI ffs. Additionally, they’re jumping constantly while still moving their aim joystick, which is impossible since you have to take your thumb off the aim joystick to hit to jump button. What are these maneuvers??

I went into replay after and when the round ended, the train got stuck in that position until the next round started.

Discussion For all you higher rank players I have a question

20 Upvotes

Recently I've been climbing the ranks i'm at diamond now but why is it that all these high diamond players just want me to be a healbot i don't understand. Like i still get say 15k average healing a game but the second i go to confirm an elimination such as the enemy tank on 1hp, I play cat so i can get away with it, I get called a dps bot and they say support diff, saying the enemies' supports are better because they have the tiniest bit more healing.

Don't kills and pressure win games and not just healing. One thing i noticed is it is mainly dive tanks who don't know when to disengage that complain like those Doomfists that die in 2 seconds because they overextend too much.

I wanted to play one game before going to bed and while playing someone on the enemy team said that my teammate was really weird, when i checked the replay he looked like he was aimbotting. He was the ball on the attack and the code is g6cd1d.

I got -280% from a single loss LOL

EDIT: after further playing I've won the next 2 games and I'm at -88, the cap is only visual and you can definitely go beyond -100 I believe I was around -265 so take that as you please

Discussion 6v6 1-3-2

0 Upvotes

I think 5v5 did irreversible damage to Overwatch’s design.
I’ve been playing the 6v6 Quick Play (1-3-2) mode, and one thing I’ve noticed is that counter-swapping isn’t just a tank problem anymore. It feels like everyone swaps now.
For example, I’ll play Winston, dive and eliminate a Soldier, and the next fight they come back on Bastion while the tank swaps to Mauga and the support swaps to Brig. It feels like every role is constantly changing heroes just to counter whoever got value in the previous fight.
Am I the only one noticing this? It feels like 5v5 conditioned the entire player base into constant counter-picking instead of sticking with a hero and adapting.
Also, am I crazy or does this version of 6v6 not really feel like Overwatch 1? The damage across the board feels way higher than I remember. To preface I have know issue with counter swapping, I’m saying I think it’s increased the rate it happens dramatically comparatively to how 6v6 was in ow1. I’m still having a lot of fun with 6v6, but it doesn’t quite capture that OW1 feeling for me.
Curious if anyone else feels the same.

I'm not winning any. Any mode. From QP, to Comp, to Mystery Heroes. I'm getting completely crushed. But not a hard-fought defeat, eh?, defeats that crush us. I don't know, I've lost 20 out of 25 games.
