To get away from the routine, a person needs entertainment. In today’s world, you have a wide range of entertainment for all tastes. You can go for a walk, go to the cinema, listen to music or go to a meeting with friends. One of the most popular forms of entertainment is video games. This is a very large branch of the entertainment industry. You can find a game for every taste. They can be single-player, with a good story and very cool graphics, or multiplayer projects where many players play at the same time. There are games where you need to cooperate with your allies to achieve victory, and there are games where your personal skill will be an advantage even before good teamwork. One such game where you can play alone or with a team is Apex Legends.
What is Apex Legends
Apex Legends is a battle royale game from developers Respawn Entertainment. It was released in February 2019 immediately for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One. The essence of the game, like all other colossal battles, is to survive. At the beginning of each round, you and a few dozen other people are thrown onto a large map. In this game, only 1 team or 1 person who is the last survivor wins. The peculiarity of this game is that each character has abilities that can be used at any time to gain an advantage over your opponents or to quickly escape if you are defeated. Apex Legends is a first-person shooter game. It has such mechanics as an aim-assist for gamepad players.
What is aim assist
Because gamepads weren’t made for shooters, it’s hard to aim with them. It may take you a lot of time to react quickly and accurately to your enemies. Especially if the enemy is at a distance and in addition to aiming at him, you need to control the recoil of the weapon when shooting. To help players with this problem, we developed the aim assist, a technology that helps you bring your aim to the target. In some games it slows down the movement of the aim, in others, it simply helps you aim when you are aiming close to the target. Many keyboard and mouse players often complain that aim assist in competitions is not fair. But this mechanic is not a cheat and is allowed for legal use absolutely everywhere. Aim assist will be available to all players, even if you play on a PC with a gamepad connected.
How to turn aim assist on or off
The same mechanics are available in Apex. If you want to play with a gamepad and you need to enable the Aim Assist you can use the simple instructions below:
- Start Apex Legends
- Open the Settings in the game
- Go to the Controller tab
- Select Advanced Look Controls
- Turn off or on Target Compensation
You can turn this option on or off at any time. Playing competitive shooters on a gamepad can be quite challenging. This setting can help you improve your skill and learn to play well faster.
