CoD Vanguard players call for removal of \u201cterrible\u201d bloom mechanic ActivisionThe controversial bloom mechanic was a complete surprise to players in Call of Duty vanguard, and now, some players are already asking for it to be removed. Call of Duty: Vanguard continues the franchise with a jump back to World War 2, but with some significant changes to multiplayer. And, as always, the competitive scene is as fiery as ever. Even if the aesthetic has changed, players still go into each entry in hopes of sampling the franchise famous multiplayer. Unfortunately, Vanguard\u2019s multiplayer may not have gotten off to the best start, as the implementation of a bloom mechanic has divided fans. Now, the demand for its removal has grown in intensity. Fans blast \u201cterrible\u201d bloom mechanic The addition of bloom in first-person shooters has existed for years, but for Call of Duty fans, it may seem like an odd addition to the franchise. Bloom (also known as weapon bloom) refers to the trajectory of a weapon\u2019s accuracy, adding an element of unpredictability to the firing line. Traditionally, players that would aim down their sight could expect their bullets to line up exactly where they shot. Other factors such as weapon choice and stability can affect bloom too. \u201cThis is currently ruining my experience\u201d Reddit user MetalingusMike noted while venting their frustration. \u201cThe mix of bloom, netcode, and low ttk make for some terrible feeling gunfights in an otherwise amazing feeling MP\u201d another commenter said, who still sees the potential in Vanguard. Bloom\u2019s inclusion is definitely hitting the wrong notes with more infuriated players: \u201cIt\u2019s horrendous. Just another form of SBMM to lower the skill gap. Go on a streak and boom BLOOM kicks in and you can\u2019t hit a shot to save your life.\u201d The mechanic wasn\u2019t addressed officially before the release of Vanguard, so it remains to be seen whether any potential updates will appease fans.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
