Lower or remove recoil inflicted by being shot at

[stoic crane]

Whenever somebody shoots you, mainly with fast shooting weapons your camera (and gun) flinch. this makes it almost impossible to fight back if somebody is already shooting at you, making it so you have to plan ahead and make sure you see the enemy first before they see you. it would be great if this could be lowered or only be made visual and not actually affect your aim.

[haughty lintel]

No no it’s fair

[pseudo wadi]

it already got nerfed hard

[hoary oak]

my man has not been here long if he thinks what we have is even noticeable. snipers can still headshot you with a high-power scope if you hit them in the face, its almost non-existent.

[narrow cloak]

Honestly given how I haven’t even noticed aim punch (the usual name for this phenomenon) since it was reduced so hard, I suspect this is largely coping.

And I fairly often run an ultimax with a 4x, I would totally notice it if it was significant

[pseudo wadi]

snipers still headshotting while getting full auto'ed at 20m and still getting a headshot is just dumb

[acoustic pasture]

Snipers still headshotting while getting sprayed by an LMG at 100m and still getting a headshot is also dumb: https://discord.com/channels/303681520202285057/1170809447640215642

[atomic wolf]

would they not have shot before their aimpunched basicaly queuing the headshot?

[hoary oak]

that's not how that worked, if you got aimpunched the gun aimed up and that's where the bullet went.

[atomic wolf]

yes but what happens on one persons screen is slightly different than anothers screen

[hoary oak]

what

that's not how aimpunch works.

technically the gun does have a visible rise, but its less a visable third person animation and more it effects the player hit.

[acoustic pasture]

I think he's just saying that the aimpunch isn't enough.

[hoary oak]

but "queuing a headshot"?

[atomic wolf]

im talking about latency

[hoary oak]

that changes nothing.

[atomic wolf]

it means on their screen their shooting you before you hit them or who knows maybe they have some skill

[hoary oak]

every time? you don't see it happen when you get hit?

[atomic wolf]

it was a reply to when the guy said "shooting full auto into a sniper then they get a headshot is dumb"

[hoary oak]

shit's barely notable when i was meming with the 40x at 200 meters

the sniper is hardly effected by being hit

[atomic wolf]

obviously you havent been shot with anything more than a 4x on

[hoary oak]

and if you aren't using a sniper, they do have enough time to one shot you anyway

I literally just said I was using the 40?

[atomic wolf]

show me a video of you using a 40x and getting hit tell me your crosshair doesnt move

[hoary oak]

there is a difference of "crosshair moving" and "unable to to headshot right after the hit"

keep in mind this is only notable with the 15x and up

and of course, using it at proper distance means its not going to affect you anyway since the movement you need to correct is much smaller

[atomic wolf]

then why with a 4x and i get hit once in cqc with any gun and my crosshair is flung halfway across the map

[hoary oak]

that's you panicking.

[atomic wolf]

totaly

[hoary oak]

it is because that's how it used to be moron

[atomic wolf]

i feel like you're the moron here

[hoary oak]

so unless you are playing on a community server with it somehow still there, you are simply delusional.

you are really trying to fight one of the biggest points of contention the game had and was heavily reduced to basically nonexistent like it is now, and try and say its still like launch?

[atomic wolf]

just saying aim punch is always pretty stupid

[hoary oak]

for snipers that have no reason to not be shot by anything not a sniper? its there for a reason.

if there was actual consequences for dying, we wouldn't need it.
