Aim Dressing Enable/Disable Option

I really think there needs to be an option to completely disable auto-aim/aim dressing. As someone on console, since cross-play has been enabled, this has become a much bigger issue. PC players have a much higher sensitivity and can snap their movements a lot more, making the ability to abuse aim dressing much more frequent when playing against players who can have much higher sensitivity. Certain killers even (Nurse, Spirit, and Deathslinger mainly) suffer from auto aim a lot more and it would be highly beneficial to completely disable it. However, other killers such as Hillbilly, Shape, and Oni, can gain benefits from keeping it on.

So would providing an option to have aim dressing (autoaim) an option in the settings be a good idea?

    Absolutely. As killer, auto-aim does more harm than good, in my experience.

    I've lost count of the amount of times I've chased a survivor who heads for an unhook, taken a swing at them, and either hit the person on the hook, or hit through both survivors and hit the hook itself, despite me aiming directly at the one unhooking.

    And then there's the times where lunges get cancelled during a straight line chase for no reason. "Going for a lunge? Nope - tiny swing instead. Survivor gets away. Screw you for playing well, killer."

    Also, as Oni, almost every time I hit a Demon Strike, I end up doing a complete 180 for no reason. This is a relatively new bug, as far as I'm aware.


    Most games with auto-aim have options to turn it off. DBD should be no exception.

    Problem is,auto aim atleast gives you hits you shouldn't get but aim dressing just robs your hits that should have landed.
