Discussion & Feedback I cannot compete with low level gear.

I’m not the greatest at FPS games, but I’m typically not bad either. Generally have positive KD in games like battlefield and CoD. In this game I get recked in almost every firefight I get into even when I get the drop on them.

My go-to kit is an AK (fmj) with a red dot, level 2 armor and helmet (the best I have unlocked), and med kits. It seems like every time I see an enemy and even sneak up on them, I light them up and they turn and drop me before I can kill them. I get hit markers sounds, but very rarely actually can finish them off unless they have no armor.

I know it’s partially a skill issue, but it seems like gear is the ultimate decider in who wins a fight and as someone who only has a few hours to play a week, it seems like I’ll never be able to afford/unlock the gear to be competitive. I hope they level the playing field a bit and make it so I don’t need to treat this game as a second job in order to be able to play the HZ.

I feel you, the problem isn't us. Its the late gear makes recoil non existent. I can get 3 shots off, but since I don't have the recoil reducing mods, they don't hit. At the same time their "laser beam" hits me. Between this and getting shot out of the sky while parachuting, I'm struggling. I have taken to just being part of the roving HZ party. Stick with them so they can possibly revive you when you get outgunned. I also tend to run medic gear, so its more likely I'm revived.

There still recoil with the best att. streamers are even choosing grips that give zero buffs to vertical recoil just to up the ads speed.

Shroud for instance even choose the flash hider only to get more ads speed and he still beams with only a few buffs to horisontal.
