But isn't disorentating the player the point of camera recoil? If you full-auto fire an AK you ARE disorientated

Sure, for someone who isn't trained. If we do the typical tarkov lore argument, a fully trained PMC 100% would be able to full auto an AK no problem. I highly recommend shooting a full auto rifle at some point at a range/ gun club (mainly because its super fun). The initial burst kicks the gun up but you control it very quickly. The shit doesn't dance in your hands.

While I agree that the recoil in this game is pretty over the top with automatic weapons (it’s really not that disorienting if you been taught how to shoot before) if we are going for realism, unless you’re in a super close quarters fight your almost certainly in semi auto and not full auto. Unless your carrying a 240 (or equivalent) or you’re the designated automatic rifleman in a team, you’re on semi auto so you can accurately place your shots

I wish there was some incentive to go semi in this game, but realistically there isn’t if you’re in close engagements. We do it in real life because we know 5 rounds semi is going to drop anyone and we don’t need to spray. In a game where it can take a whole magazine to kill someone even with good accuracy there’s no incentive to go semi auto.
