Field of view (FOV)
- This game uses vertical FOV. See FOV Calculator for help.
- FOV can be increased to 85 before severe recoil problems kick in (as mentioned below).
- FOV above 85 will cause the hip fire recoil problems, along with causing the first aimed shot to always miss.
- Field of View value is tied to how the game calculates hip fire recoil. Setting FOV too high will cause drastically increased recoil, as indicated by an expanded crosshair.[4]
