Abstract: Systems and methods for enabling automated, gradual visual rotation of a player's weapon and arms view model around an edge that the player intends to corner slice include imparting realistic motion and dynamism to the player's weapon and arms view model as the player engages in cover negotiation. The weapon and arms view model rolls and translates away from the edge in hip mode and rolls away from the edge in ADS (Aim Down Sight) mode so that the weapon and arms view model is canted away from the edge while being centered on the sight.
