Ks and I tested it like a month ago, and it didn't give lead. Not sure when the change happened, but I too noticed it one day when playing in pubs. 

 

Even at ranges 250m+, I am able to lock on and fire away if the tank I'm locked on is in the open field and I'm in a tank that has a gun with fast shell velocity, like the Leopard 1 for example. But usually, I just manually aim, I find it to be more accurate and I just feel more comfortable aiming and shooting with the mouse. 

So is it an advantage? I mean, I still want it gone... mobile doesn't get that.

The auto aim on touch leads in front of the target as well.

 

Although the way PC auto aim is put into the game does give a slight advantage but we can't help that touch auto aim sucks.

The reticle is IN FRONT of the tank. Watch the full video first before you talk [edited].

 

 

I did watch the video first.... Lol. That can easily be replicated with touch autoaim because of the box that is recognized as the autoaim sector. And how am I talking "edited"?

Touch autoaim can do the same exact thing. But as Lowe said, you can also choose where to lock onto when you give lead.

I've played on both PC and Mobile and I can confirm that it feels like a distinct advantage on PC (note I said feels). It allows me to continue shooting at tanks while driving in the opposite direction. Yes, it is true that you can do so in Mobile as well, but that free look bar is just so plain fussy. Also, OP, if you plan on adding further proof, use something with a autocannon like a T7 Car. I've also noticed it is much easier to play tanks with autocannons on PC than mobile with that autoaim because you no longer have to tap the fire button while aiming and driving at the same time.

Yes, KB/M auto-aim does lead targets—even at long range. Can confirm.

Of course, this doesn't make any difference to a skilled player, but it will help newer players hit more shots and look better than they really are.

It does, but it gives a default lead. If you want a larger lead, you have to manually adjust it. On PC, it's calculated for you. 

 

Meaning, at longer ranges (300m), with Touch you will have the same lead as you would if it were at closer ranges (150m). On PC, it's automatically adjusted, meaning it will give you a more accurate lead at a longer range, and a smaller one at a closer range.  

 

That's the difference.

W T F, I didn't know it was that OP! 

 

Nice video man!

Well why is GRIM so hell bent over KB/M. Can you explain that or is this irrelevant to you?

I'm 100% a PC player (first 7-9k battles on touch I forgot the exact number) but my most recent couple thousand are all on PC. And I use Auto-aim. But heres the deal yes for sure there is an affect on game-play it is no where near as drastic as one may think. The maps on Blitz are small and fighting is usually in close quarters. Auto aim is mostly used for CODing and shooting while either running away or engaging. In both of these scenarios its relatively close quarters and at higher tiers with shells flying so fast the auto aim rarely actually plays a role. There are cases where a target is spotted from a distance and i autoaim and just snap the shot in (but these are like 1/10s of hitting and like another 1/10 of penning cause long range inaccuracy), cause of the lead given and I'm not gonna deny this is unfair. I would be fine with it either taken out or introduced to everyone, but this auto-aim thing isnt the type of thing that makes or breaks games. It really isnt. I've played as I said close to or possibly more than 5K games and I genuinely cannot remember a game being won because I was able to Lead the target with autoaim. Again yall may have different opinions but thats my honest 2 cents on the topic.

We are fine with people discussing it, we are joining in on the discussion. It's just we have players that are on KB/M that are in the tournament team and we don't want them to be excluded from because they aren't the reserves for the team. You are also giving giving out this image that PC is OP with it's auto aim even though touch can do the exact same things with it's auto aim.

 

Your turn

Basically what pixel said ^

[Steeby141]

I don't remember saying KB/M auto-aim can turn a noob into unicum. If you suck, you suck no matter what platform you play on. 

 

The video shows you what KB/M auto aim can do vs mobile. And in this case, auto-aim leads target for you. I am sure there are many other differences, good or bad.

"I forgot, why is this relevant?"

 

Are you sure? Because your previous post suggests you are irritated by us discussing KB/M. Again... if it's irrelevant to you, ignore and move on. 

 

"You are also giving giving out this image that PC is OP with it's auto aim"

 

I presented evidence and it's up to the audience to interpret it. Do you think it's OP based on the video? You tell me. 

 

"even though touch can do the exact same things with it's auto aim"

 

No it cannot. You have to lead targets manually in mobile. 

[Steeby141]

Also, is there a reason why your "caller" / best players can't play on a mobile device?

Yes you can.... the whole box concept. It's actually fairly simple. The "aimbot" in PC seems more of a detriment than an advantage.

It depends on what a player is used to playing. For example I prefer playing on PC. I'm used to the mouse controls. While I have clanmates who have tried playing on KBM and just aren't used to it and go back to touch. I do well on PC, is it cause of auto-aim? I honestly don't think so. I used to play warthunder and I find myself much more accustomed to KBM controls.

Care to record a video of that and show me?
