If you have trouble aiming on controller these are essential tips to improve within a week

I have seen so many people on this sub be like "yeah i can build and all but i miss all my shots" so i figured i'd go over a few things that helped me as a controller player.

1. Don't take "flick" shots. I get it's fancy and looks cool when you pull it off. But it won't make you any better. I know so many of my friends that make this mistake too. Don't do it.

2. Limit jump shots. This is another crucial one. With the small range an analog stick has it's hard to be precise when jumping on a sens 6> try to limit these.

3. Go for snapshots on the ground. I can't stress this enough the aim assist in this game is ridiculous. Just hover your crosshair close to his head. Snap in with your left trigger and shoot right away. This helps you hit your shota way more consistent and is the biggest tool in shotgun fights.

4. Snapshotting. This technique is pretty well known but a lot of people using it wrong. Instead of bonehead spamming ads with an ar try to use it on a weapon like the deagle. It works just like the shotgun. Hover over the enemy quickly snap in and shoot. This also works with hunting rifles which is really effective on midrange when there's little bullet drop.

That was basically it. As for consistent AR aim and Snipers that's all up to practice and having a good sens (usually low works better) personally i never pick up snipers because i'm way more effective with splodes or other utility since sniping on console is really hard.

If i missed anything just tell me

Edit: a lot of people seem to be getting on me for saying that flick shots are not possible on controller. Let me just elaborate a bit. I explained it wrong. They are possible (kinda) but not nearly as effective as on pc. Keep in mind this list is for people struggling with basic aim due to trying flashy things such as flick shots. It's not fundamental which is why i'm personally not a fan of it. If you disagree that's fine :) just know that the tips listed above help consistency much more than taking "flick shots"
