Maybe seems obvious, but motion controls are the way to go on controller
I’m fairly new to shooters, last one I played was probably modern warfare 2.
I noticed the motion controls on the options menu and wrote it off as a sort of “oh that’s cool” thing, until my gf mentioned that high level splatoon players all use motion controls.
I started practicing with it and holy cow, the difference it makes with handling recoil on automatic weapons is huge! My stats have gone up significantly since.
Nobody I know irl plays this game so I just wanted to share this tip here, definitely give it a shot if you’re on console with a controller that supports it.
