Reduce muzzle flash PLEASE
Muzzle flash in this game is absolutely BLINDING on some weapons to the point where you cannot track or even see your target. This is not a good or fun gameplay mechanic, rather its extremely annoyin...
@Anlbrd
Playing on console the game literally tracks the target for you because of aim assist. So id imagine you wouldnt notice it as much but i doubt its much different unless they lowered particle effects to improve performance for some reason. This isnt to disparage console players, its simply a fact.
When you're playing on PC and your reticle doesnt magnetically stick to a target its pretty frustrating when muzzle flash completely obscures your target and you dont know where to aim. Its particularly bad in dark areas and in shadows.
Here is an example clip in a reddit thread and there are many others

As you can clearly see in this video you dont see the target at all, only muzzle flash this is stupid. If muzzle flash like this exists for balancing reasons this is an incredibly stupid and lazy way to balance guns. No other popular FPS game on the market has muzzle flash this bad.
I agree that the muzzle flash is just to much in this game. I have changed my settings so that I don't see damage numbers when I hit my targets. The downside is that it makes it harder to lead targets when using the R-99 or Devotion for example. I have to add that I feel like Apex is the game where my shots are least concistent and I feel like turning down the muzzle flash a bit might have a positive outcome on my KD 🙂.
