ADS recoil visuals

I wish they were more accurate to the actual recoil instead of bouncing all over the place, ♥♥♥♥♥ with my aim real bad

that plus the really inconsistent server performance (lag and hitreg issues)

Luckily coming from apex, it's natural to me. It's called recoil smoothing which negates most of the recoil including visual. Basically strafing in any direction, it cancels the horizontal recoil which is the toughest to control for most people and the little vertical recoil is nothing to someone who has played MnK for a few months. I've played since UT99. Hipfire is pretty great in this game including the lewis gun. Some single fire guns do have ridiculous visual recoil though

edit: my bad. saw you meant visual. lol

in some games the ui elements up to and including the reticle, bounce around for immersion
makes it hard af to aim tho

Not him but the gun is meant to have gun kick visuals like that. Could argue it would be OP without. It's an M1 Grand like gun that blocks sight if fired really fast because of gun kick

basically to control recoil I kinda just react to what my aimpoint is doing (ads meaning aim down sights) along with a bit of muscle memory, so when the visuals don't match the actual recoil it really messes with me

for example the fcar recoil goes straight up for a few bullets and then about 30-40° up and to the right but the sights bounce a little left and right even though the recoil only ever goes right. the ak is similar but after going right it snakes back to the left and it's sights seem to bounce around even more.

You can test this by looking at a wall, aiming and holding fire without moving your mouse (or stick if you're on controller but aim assist is a thing with controller so recoil control is lessened)

strafing does seem to reduce the visual recoil innaccuracy a little as well but there is still some (the fcar and ak have very little actual horizontal recoil in the first place)
