Motion Blur for PAYDAY

[lovesteven]

I was actually wondering if that's an option or if theres a mod for motion blur because I want that sense of realism from time to time

Motion blur doesn't make things more realistic any more than chromatic aberration or view bob. As a human being, your eyes and brain have evolved to compensate for that.

That said - there's no option for blur in the game and I've not heard of mods to accomplish it, though they may exist.

Not entirely true - motion blur does visibly exist in real life. It's just that the object itself needs to move for it to be visible to you, if just slightly.
Not the entire head turning to make everything blurry like most games do (because that's how Motion Blur is usually rendered)

Right, that's what I dislike. That sort of motion blur tends to make me motion-sick and turned around much more easily a I lose my bearings when looking around. You're right - a fast-moving object itself will blur, but our eyes do a good job adjusting to at least our own head and eye movement.
