How do you get 450 degrees from 360 (full spin) + 180 (half spin)?
Did you accidentally add 360 + 90 degrees?
All I am asking for is a multiplier, because this adjustment is so extreme at 90 FOV that it make Octane awkward to play, as you have to be used to two widely different hipfire sensitivities, which feels much more awkward than actual zoom multipliers that are tied to weapon sights / scopes.
Also, imagine you are playing a game as Octane and you just popped a stim. Right after that someone shoots you in your back and you have to do a quick 180 degree turn. At that point you are used to the unstimmed sensitivity, so you do the full movement required with the lower unstimmed sens. Bam, suddenly you over aim by up to 90 degrees.
The only real fix for this right now is to up your FOV to 110 as the effect is much less severe there.
I don't remember it being that severe and it was also one of the things that soured Shrouds return to the game. Even though it doesn't really annoy me longer since I switched to 110 FOV, it's still a thing I really don't like that they haven't addressed.
Octane is a really good place right now, but it's a shame that he is so affected by this + he has the issue of not being able to melee during the ending of stim animations.

My bad. I misremembered, or maybe got confused with the 180 degrees you mentioned in YT.

They should definitely add a custom slider for this indeed, just like with the rest of the FOV changes (ADS).

This is a valid concern. Almost all of us ignore vision for flicking and use muscle memory alone when doing a quick 180, since you don't see what's behind you. Guess I'm used to the FOV change that I never notice this in game anymore.

Ngl the FOV change has never been an issue for me and for the popular Octane streamers that I watch.
What bothers me the most currently is the insane Wingman recoil amplification during stim which only happens with an optic sight.
I think the mods didnt consider giving attention to this because it's not really a bug report. More of a suggestion. So the bug report team doesnt know what to do with it. Or maybe EA just doesnt care unless it's a severe bug that prevents thousands of people from playing. sigh
Yeah, it's all good. There are a lot of different ways to look at the problem, it's easy to confuse different aspects of it with each other.
I honestly don't notice it at 110 FOV, but I can't deal with at 90 FOV. I had a few seasons where I matched FOV to CS for fun and I had to stop playing Octane during that time.
I'm sorry I read your intentions all wrong in the YouTube comments. I have bad memories of topics getting derailed from Steam Forum threads. Variable FOV and sens matching can be a very complex thing, and I like to geek out on mouse-sensitivity.com + jscalc, so I get you wanting to get the facts straight.
Personally I just find it most comfortable for my CM / 360 to not really be changed on any adjustment other than 3x magnification and above.
