Random recoil
Increase in recoil is fine and perhaps some bloom tweets to fix range accuracy but Please roll back the increase in random recoil. Nobody wants unpredictable RNG in an FPS. Gunplay feels bad now.
Hi there, I just wanted to share the developers' response to this topic from the recent Discord Live Q&A, in case you weren't able to take the time to join.
Q: It’s love to see how the community's skill ceiling continuously reaches new heights every single day. However, looking at recent patches, we've noticed a heavy shift toward just Random based weapon bloom and Random recoils. Could you share the ideal behind introducing randomness into a competitive community? We’d love to understand the future direction of this gunplay.
A: As part of the gunplay improvements we are working on that will arrive later in Season 3, we have been taking a good look at how recoil is tuned. Recoil variation will receive adjustments in a way that will make handling more predictable and put more important on shooting technique (i.e. burst-firing an automatic weapon to effectively hit targets at ranges). Those changes will have some meaningful impact on gunplay mastery and I think you will like where we are headed! We will be sharing more about everything gunplay in the near future in a deep dive on the topic so stay tuned!
Thank you all for the feedback.
