This section covers "Quick Edit Anti-Recoil", featured in our COD BO4 18 GAMEPACK for the STRIKEPACK HORIZON™ controller adapter & powered by the STRIKEPACK CENTRAL™ smartphone app.
Before continuing, please ensure that you have at least completed GAMEPACK Setup, Weapon Swap Mode, & Weapon Setup. You MUST be comfortable with managing your ACTIVE Weapon Slot & Weapon M.O.D.s to proceed...
You can apply Anti-Recoil adjustments to your ACTIVE Weapon Slot via your controller. Anti-Recoil can be applied to a GENERIC Fire Mode, or in the case of weapon-specific Optimized Anti-Recoil, you can adjust for recoil differences from weapon attachments, game updates, or unsupported settings.
Remember that Anti-Recoil settings are per Weapon Slot.
Once you are in-game 🎮, position yourself & aim at a wall 🧱 or static target 🎯, ensuring that you have plenty of ammo & space to compare recoil. Switch to the in-game weapon 🔫 that you will be using, such as your Primary Weapon. Ensure the Weapon Slot that you intend to adjust is ACTIVE, or highlighted on the Dashboard.
If the wrong Weapon Slot is ACTIVE, or if you are unfamiliar with Weapon Swap Controller Shortcuts, tap the appropriate Weapon Slot once to make it ACTIVE:
Ensure that the following setting is toggled to Directional Quick Edit for now:
To enter Quick Edit Mode, while HOLDING ACTIVATOR, HOLD RIGHT STICK BUTTON until you feel a pulsing rumble.
Your controls will be restricted, but you will be allowed to move around & test your current weapon.
With Directional Quick Edit, you can adjust the direction of the Anti-Recoil pull with the D-PAD by TAPPING (precise) or HOLDING (faster) the appropriate direction. Your adjustments will change the following slider values on the Dashboard. They will be felt as heavy rumbles unless the adjustment ceiling or floor is reached:
It is wise to focus on vertical adjustment first:
If your aim is drifting upwards, use the DOWN direction on the D-Pad to pull downwards ⬇️.
If your aim is drifting downwards, use the UP direction on the D-Pad to pull upwards ⬆️.
If your aim is exclusively drifting to the left, use the RIGHT direction on the D-Pad to pull right ➡️.
If your aim is exclusively drifting to the right, use the LEFT direction on the D-Pad to pull left ⬅️.
If your aim is drifting in both directions, this type of horizontal recoil CANNOT be fixed & Horizontal Adjust MUST be kept at its default 0 value.
If you get into a mess, at any point in Quick Edit Mode, you can opt to reset your adjustments to default. This reset will only affect the ACTIVE Weapon Slot:
To reset, HOLD LEFT STICK BUTTON until you feel 2 heavy rumbles.
Focus on fine tuning to acceptable results, as your weapon may have some random recoil, and that CANNOT be fixed:
If you are satisfied with your results, you can PRESS RIGHT STICK BUTTON to exit Quick Edit Mode.
If the Weapon Slot is assigned to a supported weapon, you are adjusting Optimized Anti-Recoil, and your results have been unsuccessful, there is another option available in toggling to Pattern Strength Quick Edit.
Pattern Strength suits a weapon best when its recoil pattern has maintained its base shape; just shrunken or enlarged. This can be the case with certain weapon attachments & unsupported settings, or after a game update has only made slight alterations. Ensure that everything is set up the way that you want it before you try Pattern Strength.
You can toggle the setting from the Dashboard, or your controller. While toggling from the app will leave existing Anti-Recoil values alone, values are NOT interchangeable between Directional & Pattern Strength. Therefore, toggling from your controller will reset them for your convenience.
To toggle from your controller, while in Quick Edit Mode, TAP MENU. Besides being visible on the app, when the Weapon Slot is set to Pattern Strength, the pulsing rumble will change to bursts of rumble.
Now, instead of applying a directional pull, you will be adjusting the strength of your weapon's existing Optimized Anti-Recoil Pattern.
From here, while testing Anti-Recoil, pay attention to the vertical direction of your aim:
If your aim is drifting downwards, Vertical Anti-Recoil is likely overcorrecting or too strong. Use UP D-PAD to decrease it towards a negative value .
If your aim is drifting upwards, Vertical Anti-Recoil is likely undercorrecting or too weak. Use DOWN D-PAD to increase it towards a positive value .
When you are done with vertical adjustment, you can tackle horizontal adjustment with trial & error:
Use RIGHT D-PAD to increase Horizonal Anti-Recoil towards a positive value , then see if the horizontal drifting gets worse. If it does, use LEFT D-PAD to decrease it towards a negative value . Try to find the middle ground where horizontal drift is minimal.
You can save time by HOLDING the D-PAD, or adjusting in increments of 5.
When you are satisfied with your results, you can PRESS RIGHT STICK BUTTON to exit Quick Edit Mode.
While you are firing at an enemy, in-game aim assist can slightly interfere with Anti-Recoil. If you find this difficult to deal with, you can make tweaks such as ever-so-slightly over increasing Vertical Anti-Recoil, or for a GAMEPACK with Optimized Anti-Recoil, Anti-Recoil Mode features solutions to mitigate the issue.
