I’m not sure if this is a bug or something new, but I’ll occasionally get this momentary motion blur effect when playing. It seems completely random, but maybe I’m missing the cause? It’s not exactly like suppression effect, more like you’re about to jump to hyper space lol. Anyway, it’s kind of annoying, just wondering if anyone has seen this and/or knows the cause behind it? ---

Yeah it’s a bug. For whatever reason the game thinks you’re doing a bayonet charge. You might also notice that nearly all of your guns show a bayonet on the HUD, even if you don’t have one fitted (or possible to have one fitted). This screen effect can also randomly appear when you’re driving a tank (I guess a plane too although it hasn’t happened to me yet) and even on the redeploy screen. ---

It happens with the plane also. ---

Come to think of it, I did notice a bayonet icon at one point. It’s been a while since I played BF1, but that’s exactly the effect I’m talking about. So odd. ---

SixTouge I had that happen after the last patch and it turns out it reset my graphics settings and turned on motion blur, film grain, etc that I turned off at launch. I went back in and turned those options off and everything’s back to normal for me. ---

To be honest, I’ve never touched any settings like that either way, I just jump on and play lol ---

To be honest, I’ve never touched any settings like that either way, I just jump on and play lol Yep, they’re in the Video settings menu. I don’t think that will correct the issue though as I have all of that stuff off (and have just double checked that they’re all off) and I still get the blur. ---

I concur with both of you as well. Checked my settings and all those things are turned off. In all actuality, it happens way too often and it’s getting super annoying. And I’m on the Xbox one x…
