Battlefield 6's 'bloom' problem isn't caused by a beta bug, DICE lead clarifies – that issue was fixed, but two more have emerged in its place

Battlefield 6.

Among the foibles of Battlefield 6's record-breaking launch has been a frustrating bug causing extraneous bloom. For certain players, the reticle of their guns fails to re-center properly after firing, which is less than ideal in a multiplayer shooter simulating actual war zones.

Recoil ensures that sustained shooting will decrease your accuracy, with bullets eventually blooming all around your intended target. It's an expected aspect of an FPS like this and something people work around. What’s less expected is for shots to still be inaccurate after you’ve taken a break from pulling the trigger.
