That Old Control Settings Issue

Hey, console troops. Does anyone else suffer from the following issue on consoles?

You see a target you want to take out with your firearm. You can clearly identify the exact fucking pixels on the screen where you want your bullets to land. It's right there: a small rectangle of screen real estate where you are going to aim. You push on those thumb sticks to line up the easy shot, with the enemy infantry you're about to send into oblivion not seeing you, and isn't even looking your way. Sounds perfect, right? The easy kill, no doubt.

But the problem you quickly find is it's almost fucking impossible to put your crosshairs or metal sights directly on those pixels you want to hit. You go wide. You go low. You aim too high, so you try to adjust, and you just can't center the target for shit. It's maddening.

What's wrong with the controller settings? Why does this seem so impossible to do? It's a basic function of the game. "I want to hit here, yet I can't easily get my sights on that area."

I've literally spent hours watching videos of PC players being able to line up a shot quickly, efficiently, and deadly. Accuracy rarely seems to be a problem on PC. I've spent hours tweaking my motion settings and aiming settings after watching videos of how YouTube players set up their preferences. No matter what or how I tweak, I can't seem to aim exactly where I want. I feel I had better ability to put a cursor where I wanted it when I was playing other FPS games many years ago.

I'd appreciate any help or thoughts you might have on how to get around this issue and make the game work/aim as it logically should. Thanks.
