I really hope there’s a way to disable c-clamping
Look, I get the c-clamping has become the new norm and it has benefits for firearms handling and recoil control. It looks “tacticool” as well, so people are gonna put it in games. The issue is: it blocks your view too much in video games.
Irl you have the benefit of two points of view, one from each eye, combined to form one image. It’s why you can use a bulky optic and still have a great field of view if you keep both eyes open. A bulky EOTech holographic becomes basically transparent when used with both eyes open, so the housing doesn’t block your view. Same goes for C-clamping, where your thumb obscuring part of your view while aiming is suddenly a non-issue.
If you want a specific example in BF6, look at the videos of people using the AK variant(s) with iron sights. His hand on the left side of the gun takes up a pretty big chunk of your vision, and it’s distracting to me.
I figured maybe foregrips would help, but it seems like they still C-clamp even with traditional vertical grips, treating them more like handstops than grips.
