How To Turn Controller Aim Assist On/Off in Battlefield 6

by

As a devoted Battlefield 6 fan, I’ve discovered the crucial importance of understanding how to fine-tune the aim assist feature when using a controller. Some players appreciate it as it bridges the precision gap between controllers and mice, while others dislike the sensation that manual aim control is compromised by it. Luckily, Battlefield 6 offers more than just an on/off setting for this! Let’s dive in to learn how to customize aim assist to your personal preference.

How To Turn Controller Aim Assist On/Off | Battlefield 6

As a gamer, first off, I’d recommend clicking on the gear icon located up at the top of the main menu. This will lead you to the game’s settings. From there, you’ll want to pick ‘Controller’. Now, within this section, press the Triangle button (if you’re using a PlayStation) or Y button (if you’re on Xbox) to enter the Edit Settings.

After this, choose the category you’d like to adjust the aim assist for. For instance, let’s pick ‘Infantry’, which is typically the default choice. To make the change, simply select ‘Modify’ under the ‘Control Settings’ of Infantry.

In that location, slightly scroll down and you’ll encounter the Aim Assist sliders. As illustrated, there are three of them. Here’s a brief explanation of each one:

1. Linear Stick Sensitivity – This adjusts how quickly your aim moves across the screen when using the left stick.
2. ADS (Aim Down Sights) Sensitivity Multiplier – This affects the sensitivity of your aim while aiming down sights, making it either more or less responsive than regular aiming.
3. Sticky Aim – This keeps your reticle locked onto an enemy for a short period after releasing the aim button, making follow-up shots easier to land.

  • Aim Assist – How much your weapon’s aim slows down and sticks to an enemy when aiming at them. The higher it is, the stronger the effect. Dial it down to 0 to disable it fully.
  • Aim Assist Slowdown – How much the aim slows down when targeting an enemy. You can set this to 0 to disable slowdown from manual movement while keeping the stickiness from aim assist.
  • Aim Assist Zoom Snap – How strongly your weapons will snap to a nearby target when aiming. The higher the number is, the larger the radius for zoom snap is around your crosshair. Set to 0 to disable.

To completely turn off all aim assistance features, simply adjust them to 0. It’s that straightforward! However, if you prefer, you can fine-tune the sliders so the aim assist feels comfortable for your gaming style. Additionally, you can modify similar settings for other categories like when driving vehicles.
