@Sulphurix_LXXIIThe spectator mode is quite misleading. Are there people with anti recoil devices? Yes but you can't tell from that as it isn't accurate.
In this context its not. You can see when someone is landing shots at a distance. So while it's not perfect, it's accurate enough in this case.
@Sulphurix_LXXIIDon't let anyone fool you. People cheat a lot in FPS games, especially when you only need a simple device to effectively get a free laser.
However, the game is also incredibly quirky... there's aim smoothing, jitter aim, both can greatly reduce recoil to the point that there doesn't seem to be any at times. The game is VERY inconsistent when using those techniques though. Some games I'm dropping 4k damage quite easily, others, I'm cursing at my screen "where are my bullets going?!". Like you can't find hit boxes sometimes, or the spread of the gun goes crazy.
Games are complex, and there's a lot of things going on that are directly tied to performance with your machine and the servers. And there's cheats to literally simulate a player lagging, so who knows what else they can do.
Watch couple videos on aim smoothing and jitter aim, not sure if that works on console, and then go into the firing range. You might have done all that already, but it's worth refreshing your skills once in a while. The game is brutal right now, no room for any sort of casual play under certain ranks. I just got to Plat with an account today, and my teammates can't seem to break 200 dmg, while I'm getting 600-1000 after a fight or two.
