so I suppose you could try to put in some sort of recoil control algorithm to have it automatically counter that, but I don't trust that it would be consistent enough to matter
Unless you're as insane as the Rust devs and give your guns predetermined recoil patterns instead of randomised, that is.
It's always wild that they left such an easily exploitable mechanic in a full-loot PvP shooter for years
For me the issue is that in a lot of these games you can't have your own private games when you want them or take care of moderation yourself which would deal with the majority of hacking problems and esports is a special form of normie cancer with normies trying to turn gaming into some professional sporting event when it just isn't.
