You really don't see a problem here, BF-Studios (Sniping & Suppression)
In the video attached, I was shooting towards a sniper and hit him a few times. No suppression, no flinch, still hits me.
The player isn't a very good sniper, admittedly, but got the kill nonetheless. There are better shooters than this player, who give you a headshot regardless in the same situation. But even a player who misses, and then needs another 2 shots gets a kill with the Sniper can kill an infantry player with pretty much no issues. Now add to that the sweetspot mechanic, and even this guy could've one hit me.
Even when missing the Recon with an automatic rifle, shots close to players usually led to suppression effects that caused sway in ADS. It does absolutely nothing here. I even hit the Recon multiple times, but it did nothing to his ability to aim and hit. No flinching, no sway. MAYBE made the player just a little bit nervous. I hit him 4 times, one of which was a headshot.
Do you really not see a problem here, or is this just something you missed?
