So I heard a rumor that increasing the FPS is now allowing some settings that give people less recoil? I went away from my 125 a bit on Friday, it was at 144 or something like that and it did feel that rifle was much more accurate. Am I imagining this? If so, I don't think I want to keep this setting - yes "everyone" can do it - but most people don't and everyone here is already too fuckin good already, so lets not make people even more potent by further exploiting the engine. Am I wrong here?

I honestly didn't notice a difference at all but if you feel there was a difference then go ahead and change it back I guess.

There are certain FPS that are already under the cap that influence recoil with the cap we had before and it wasn't an issue then. People already know about the 71 fps crap and it still doesn't seem to effect us because the recoil difference is really minuscule if you ask me.

I thought I noticed a difference in recoil with the rifle shots at 144 (AKA 166? lol) yes. (Side note: Is it really considered recoil when talking about the rifle shots? Isn't it more like spread?)

I believe this requires more testing before we can definitely say it has some sort of advantage but I do think the testing should be done. However I don't think if it does turn out to be the case, that the cap should be lowered again. As Sin said, 71 FPS is quite known for reducing pistol and scoped rifle recoil. And IMO it's not minuscule like Sin says, it's quite noticeable.

Cool, I'm not a tweaker so I wasn't aware of the 71.

No change needed.

Beck you can control the tweakers out there... Introduce bullet drop
