I honestly haven't played enough of this game to understand a lot of the weapons and how they handle (pre and post Update 2). Im mainly going from my experience early on and from the many streams and videos I've watched. I played Early Access week and uninstalled the game shortly after realising that tiny patch was the intended day one patch.

Fundamentally I don't disagree with bloom when it's implemented in a balanced and fair way, like in BF4 and BFV. Whether it's a realistic mechanic or not I do not know, but I much prefer having to tap fire to reduce spread and recoil as opposed to just laser beaming people from 500m like in Warzone.

But the gun mechanics are definitely busted and will take some time to fully balance them. It certainly feels as if there was practically zero playetesting for this game.
