I’m having an issue with aiming in OW. Generally what happens is when I flick, some kind of aim smoothing effect applies. I’ve turned off aim smoothing for controller however, the issue is I’m on mouse and keyboard. Is this a known issue that everyone has or am I doing something wrong? I’ve reset my aim settings a multitude of times and I’ve dug through the aim setting for hours. There appears to be no fix from my side so I was hoping I could get some insight from you guys, the OW community.

Yeah, i got you. Just to double check, make sure all your controller settings are set to off and that all the bars are set to 0. it helps my sanity. Next, check your mouse settings in windows and make sure theres no smoothing going on there. Next and last thing, go into overwatch, and go to the gameplay tab. there at the bottom you should see “enable high precision mouse imput” and turn that on. if all of that looks correct check your hardware and drivers cause then its deff not overwatch
You are correct, this does occur with no fix I’ve found. Aiming has been broken in ow2 for its entire lifespan and it is a problem within the game itself and not able to be fixed by you. If I remember correctly the last time aim was addressed was here in season 1 but the problems still persist. https://overwatch.blizzard.com/en-us/news/23865965/overwatch-2-developer-blog-post-launch-updates-on-gameplay-maps-and-competitive/
Controller settings are good, aim smoothing is off on windows, and enabling high precision mouse input made it worse. Drivers are all good and I double checked to see that they are up to date. Thanks for the suggestions.
