Weapon Bloom is Atrocious - Remove It!
Why DICE? Why EA? Weapon bloom makes little sense for this game. Recoil and hipfire spread does. Weapon bloom is pure sadistic cruelty. I have at this point missed more shots in a match, maybe...

You mean bullet spread?
Bloom in regard to weapons is where guns become increasingly inaccurate the longer it fires. This is different from spread where bullets will consistently be (in)accurate within a certain area no matter how long the weapon is fired.
@Noodlesocks That's called spread increase and has been in Battlefield forever. Controlling spread increase and decrease by tap firing has always been a skill in BF games.
- @Lykosia It’s a * . I played in battlefield 5 , and the gunplay is normal . Here , in battlefield 2042 we have broken hit-marker and broken random bloom or spread

If you could control the recoil in that game you were rewarded, not punished.

It has featured to varying degrees in previous games but never as egregious as in 2042. Even Battlefield 4 handled it better.
- @Lykosia But tap firing doesn't work either. When i put the AR's on single shot I still get random bullet deviation and the bullets still land outside of where im aiming. As of riight now the AR's have way too much spread and are broken Smg's are far more accurate even at range
@cng82But tap firing is NOT the same as being on single shot. If you are spamming single shot too quick you'll get the same result as holding the trigger in auto.
Unfortunately, and as far as I am aware, spread stats and how they have been implemented have not been published anywhere so it is difficult to assess exactly what is going on but I suspect it is some form of SIPS.Whilst I am not saying ARs are in a good place relatively, SMGs particularly the Pee Pee-29 are more likely to be 'broken'.
