I think I speak for a lot of players when I say that the flinch in this game is far too severe when being shot at, especially when using precision weapons. In my opinion the penalty for being shot at should be losing health, not losing the ability to hit your target. I decided to bring this up after playing gambit prime. During the damage phase, the flinch and screen shake was so insane that using a sniper was nearly impossible and I had to use something different, which is the main problem of flinch this severe. It discourages using certain weapons knowing that if you get hit then your aim will be thrown off completely and you’ll have to adjust. This also affects pvp, where you are also discouraged when it comes to using weapons like snipers and scout rifles because if you get shot while aiming it’s nearly impossible to recover before getting killed.
