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 players by name. I have not seen one streamer, content creator, EA Friend, Reddit poster, forum poster, Discord member ask for more visual recoil.
This change was unneeded after one round I have a headache. Please do the right thing and revert this nerf.

After using SMGS I see what everyone means now about the dot moving. I wonder why they even thought this was a good idea. I struggle more to hit with the SMG. That dot bounces like Mario
I think this article is about this.

Hopefully the proposed upcoming hotfix on 2nd April goes ahead and sorts this issue.
If its not ready Imho they should roll back the update until a proper fix is available.
I hope the recoil system in Battlefield 7 is completely overhauled. No more recoil to the left and bullets go to the right. 🥺
Just everyone say it, it is a visual nerf there's nothing else you can call it. It needs to be removed because it will never be fixed properly imho.
After messing around with guns and scopes, as we know, some guns and scopes are effected more than others.
The DMR’s in particular appear to have been shafted.
Having the scope bounce to give the impression of more “immersion” is one thing, but scope-bounce isn’t all they’ve done.
The whole image on screen bounces with each shot. This is what makes it even more harassing on the eyes.
If they had just made the scope bezel bounce, while keeping the crosshair and overall image stable, I think I would be happy with that.
The DM7 with a ghost hybrid scope is almost unusable.
The bounce is ridiculous. The whole image on screen (both inside the scope and around it) bounces like crazy. This is what make it hard to stay on target while shooting.
As mention above, I’ve got a feeling that what they’re going to do is potentially mess it up more.
They need to revert it back, or fix it so just the scopes and any visible parts of the gun bounce abit - and that’s all.
If indeed all they wanted to do was add “visual” recoil, then this is what they should do.
Just did some more testing with the DMR’s.
Jeez, I thought the DM7 was bad.
The SVK and M39 have been totally screwed up.
I used a wall to shoot at, to see where the bullets were going on the different DMR’s.
All I can say is, good luck trying to maintain any accuracy.
The BSV crosshair looks like it’s on a spring and just bounces up and down as you fire.
The DM7 felt like it had at least retained some accuracy but it’s hit and miss. Literally. One minute it feels fine and then next it doesn’t seem to shoot anywhere near where your aiming.
Reverting this recoil change better be on the agenda in Tuesday’s update, is all I can say. Otherwise that could be it for me with this game.
What a mess.
