Well, sorta. I don't mind some sort of aim assist to bring parity between console and PC, but the way CoD does it is by making a bubble around an enemy character that will follow them no matter what direction you go to (this is basically rotational aim assist). IMO, aim assist should either only slow down the aim while it's over an enemy, or have a delay in the rotation to mimic the way a player without aim assist would naturally react to a change in direction.
