Recoil control
Hello
Recoil in PR is good but the way the muzzle stays pointing where muzzle climb ended isn't natural.The muzzle should go down to what u were aming at after the muzzle climb ended. This is what happens when u shoot , the character in-game has to have that little control on the recoil
When u shoot IRL this happens naturally without much control.

Re: Recoil control
Could require recoil reworks, but even more importantly generally any chance made in pr is met with at best disdain. Also it didnt seem to popular when I wanted to add it.

Personally I like the idea. Did You tried to do anything with it? Got any sketches?Rabbit wrote:Could require recoil reworks, but even more importantly generally any chance made in pr is met with at best disdain. Also it didnt seem to popular when I wanted to add it.

Re: Recoil control
Nope, just testing myself, I was also looking into a fix for the crouch to stand deviation/ general accuracy but rivers told me not to bother because its his thing and he was going to do changes. (still waiting)

Re: Recoil control
I found this interesting video with the m4 recoil in previous versions

Re: Recoil control
Yep, its a nice feature. If we could get that, realistic accuracy and nerfed deviation I think the game would be in a much better state.sgt.maze2 wrote:I found this interesting video with the m4 recoil in previous versions

Inexperienced players can't do that well, just like inexperienced shooters IRL.

Re: Recoil control
I toyed around with it a bit and honestly, GoBackOnRecoil is more of a hindrance than help, since you have to compensate for two autonomous movements as opposed to one. The only weapons that benefit from it are the semi-autos/DMRs when they have enough time to spare to let the downswing settle.Rabbit wrote:Yep, its a nice feature. If we could get that, realistic accuracy and nerfed deviation I think the game would be in a much better state.
In Squad(bloody hell, I'm going to mention a positive aspect of that game), the recoil when firing semi is extremely low, making it favourable to actually leave the weapon on semi for many engagement ranges. This is unfortunately not possible to do in PR.

Yep, like I said, could require a recoil rework. But I honestly think much of the shooting requires a rework. I am able to hit a 600m target while standing with the m16a4 about 30%-40% of the time. Absolutely unrealistic.

Re: Recoil control
On the posted video I can see that crosshair is coming back to the original direction, would be ok just to move it down to the previous level, leaving horizontal deviation unaffected by ObjectTemplate.recoil.goBackOnRecoil (same as it is in Squad?).

Re: Recoil control
GBOR from the way I perceive it works by pulling the crosshair back halfway towards the original position eg. if the gun recoil rolled 2° up and 1° right, after moving to 2° up and 1° right the game moves the crosshair to 1° up and 0.5° right compared to the position from where you shot. This recoil compensation takes longer the higher the recoil(Could be wrong! It felt that way to me during testing.), so in the low-recoil enviroment of 0.98 it looks as though it goes back to the original position completely and rather quickly which it actually does not*.
I asked Alon or Mats(maybe both?) if GBOR can be changed, altered or reduced and the answer was the nightmare of all PR suggestions: Hardcoded.
*side note I forgot to add earlier when replying to Rabbit on why I see GBOR as more of a hindrance than help:
Any decent PR player can pull down his crosshair back on target quicker by himself than GBOR will do for him(that is to say, if you're close enough to the target that it does that for you). So as opposed to helping you with quick shot alignments you actually tend to overcompensate because the backswing will not have fully completed while you're already back on target. So the game still moves your crosshair. I can't say for certain if you can force yourself to not compensate as much so that it becomes a non-issue after adjusting yourself to behave this way. To me this feels really awkward, so I personally just prefer one movement I have to compensate for over two.

Re: Recoil control
I'm not worried if it helps you, but A. Its a realistic representation of firearms, and B. it could possible change laser auto guns to have a bit more bounce.Frontliner wrote: *side note I forgot to add earlier when replying to Rabbit on why I see GBOR as more of a hindrance than help:
