Aim assist seems not working like it was

[Valkuran 3]

So, quite time ago I noticed aim assist is not working properly in encounters, like it works in the Shooting Range... Crosshair kinda sticks at the target, when you move it across and slows down a bit. And it worked the same way in encounters, but not anymore. Is this a bug or developers broke something? Or maybe now it's a new feature?
