SILENT AIM
🎯 WHAT DOES SILENT AIM DO?
SILENT AIM is a feature that works alongside Aim Assist and applies slight extra horizontal corrections to your crosshair while you're firing, especially when you're strafing.
Its goal is to make horizontal aim adjustments easier to control during fights, by following both your character's movement and the movement generated by Aim Assist.
Unlike regular Aim Assist, which applies small repeated movements to the sticks, Silent Aim adds an extra correction to your aim.
⚙️ HOW DO YOU SET IT UP?
In the AIM ASSIST menu, use LEFT / RIGHT to reach the SILENT AIM screen.
- UP: increases the correction strength. - DOWN: decreases the correction strength. - 0: turns Silent Aim off completely. - 5 to 1500: lets you adjust its intensity gradually.
The higher the value, the stronger the correction can be.
🎮 IN-GAME EXAMPLE
Picture yourself fighting an enemy while strafing to dodge their shots.
While you're firing and adjusting your crosshair, Silent Aim can apply an extra horizontal correction to follow your movement.
If the value is too low, the correction can be hard to notice.
On the other hand, a value that's too high can cause excessive horizontal movement and make your aim feel less natural.
💡 HOW DO YOU FIND THE RIGHT SETTING?
✅ TIP: Start with a low value, then raise it gradually while testing your shots on a static target and while moving.
The goal is a subtle correction, without your crosshair making annoying sideways movements.
⚠️ IMPORTANT: Despite its name, SILENT AIM does not detect enemies, does not lock onto targets and does not guarantee you'll hit the enemy. It's only extra assistance on top of your stick movements, and how well it works also depends on the game's aim assist.

It adds slight horizontal corrections to your crosshair while you're firing, especially when you're moving sideways.
