Revert Visual Recoil - Motion Sickness
The visual recoil on some weapons is over the top ridiculous. After a few minutes, it literally makes me sick to play. What are we doing here? Why was this done? Who asked for it? Please list the...

This is such a bummer. It's the only game I play consistently and there is no way I can play it now, which is made all the worse because motion sickness is due to a design change, not a bug.
I get it, they can't satisfy everyone, but when it comes to a game inducing physical ailment that has been widely reported, you would think they would prioritize the issue as number 1 to fix.
That they haven't reverted it speaks volumes to me about their priorities and what they think of their customers.
I wonder if this was implemented in response to gyro aim? Been looking at some videos of a player using gryo aim and it almost feels like cheating with the limited recoil.
Next Tuesday. Let’s see what actual improvement it will be…
Got to love the vagueness of that announcement.
- @sk1lld I like how we're getting an improvement for the improvement we got a few weeks ago xD
- @RanzigeRidder2
Thanks for the heads up bud. 👍

Improvement of what? Now what did they touch?

Imho the best improvement would be to revert back to where we were at previously. Dice logic: Apply changes nobody asked for, which break the game, fix it weeks later and then expect to receive credit for it "We listened to the community"
Best ïmprovement would indeed be to simply revert the visual recoil back to its former state.- @RanzigeRidder2 Yup.
“Improvements” is not the word they should be using.
They would have done better to say “fixes”.
They broke something that didn’t need touching.
Then they waste their time sorting it all out.
And I also have a feeling that they won’t be reverting it at all.
I suspect they will just adjust the recoil on select weapons.
The trailer for that crimson event (or whatever it is) shows that the new recoil is still in the game.
You can see it when the soldiers are shooting in some of the trailer.
Either that trailer was made a while back, or it’s confirmation that they don’t have any intention to revert the recoil changes. Remember the days back when game devs sometimes actually interacted directly with their players in official forums? I feel really old now.
I would really love some civilized banter with the people who brought us the recoil changes.
Straight from the patch notes:
Visual Weapon Recoil improvements were introduced in Season 7, and through your feedback it was clear there must be further refinement of this feature. Update 7.0.1 was a hotfix aimed at resolving some of the core issues, such as the interactions with the Avancys, and as previously communicated Update 7.1.0 will include a wide pass that will correct most of the player reported issues surrounding Visual Weapon Recoil.
- Visual recoil on multiple weapons, sights and specific weapon/sight combinations have been adjusted, including deviation of reticle to screen center, on the following weapons: G428, BSV-M, SVK, VCAR, M39 EMR, P90, DM7, DXR-1, RPT-31, PKP-BP, AK 5C, M240B, BFP.50.
- Weapon Sights: Raven 4X, TV 2X, Ghost Hybrid 1.25-2.5x, M11 6X, PSO-1M3, BKS 8X, XCE Scope, K8 Holo, Kobra, Reflex, ACOG, SHAN 2.5X, 8R Holo, Fusion Holo.

I still wont understand why they made such a huge change when they were going to cut the services a couple months later.

I have heard that some old passenger jet planes are used for experiments involving a controlled crash landing to see how much which part of the plane will get damaged by how they decide to crash the plane like.
The cynical part of my brain thinks that they got some orders to see how much damage 2042 will take if they changed the gunplay at this time. Remember when they changed the afterburners on the jets slightly and all the pilots cried, so DICE reversed the changes within 48 hours?
Funny how the same doesn't happen when it's a pretty major **** up on the infantry side.....
I'm hoping for a full revert of the reticle change, adjustment of this massive headache inducing nerf is not enough.
Visual recoil : 🤮

The Afterburners are still messed up. Just slightly less than with the initial change..
So you should expect something similar for the visual recoil : Still messed up though slightly less.
I understand that some really good vehicle users have annoyed you, but aside from Nightbird, the vehicle experience with every other ground or air vehicle is the worst is has been since I started in BF3. Never before in my BF career have I spend less time using vehicles, they are either short lived or just feel horrible to use.
- @UP_Hawxxeye Or expect they fix some and break something else, now that would be a first for Dice….NOT!
Just like the goofed 2XP event this weekend.

A bunch of reasons why I won't be buying the next or any future BF game, but if they have visual recoil, I am not buying it.
For whatever reason, the shakiness of the screen is too much for me, and it kills my accuracy a bunch because I have no clue where to aim to hit anymore.Did the latest patch address the recoil?
I am done playing this crap! The visual recoil is AWFUL, NO ONE ASKED FOR IT.
EA and DICE - if you are reading this, you are a truly idiotic TEAM.
Bye!
- @yanakkis I honestly don't know what they were thinking.
The game was playable before this change. Now it is unplayable for me with most weapons.
Why this change now? Season 7? Why did you take critical development hours and use them on visual recoil when there were still other critical bugs in the game that still need to be addressed?
Who approved this change?
Please have them come out on Dev's Corner and explain why this was needed.
