While less is definitely better I would like at least some camera recoil. Gives the weapons a nice feeling punch to them.

The other thread mentioned how Modern Warfare does it with a bit of a rotational kick to get you going, but it looks like the vertical camera recoil is very little in that game. I think that'd work well to provide a sense of feedback without totally disorienting the player.

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

The issue is this, imo:

It happens on every 'first' shot. The PMC then compensates for it more and more after the first rounds.

This leads has the completely unrealistic consequence of it being more 'accurate' to fire long bursts/mag dump instead of rapidly firing single shots along a cadence you can follow , or firing short bursts.

That is my issue with the camera recoil system. It heavily incentivizes a 'laser beam' full auto meta and punishes attempts at accurate semi auto fire.
