Bloom, or reticule bloom, is a mechanic in video-games. This is when the reticule on the heads-up display becomes larger with sustained or rapid fire, making the weapon less accurate. The reticule will return to its normal proportions after a sufficient time has passed, without firing.
This game mechanic is found in most if not all First-person shooters. As seen in the E3 2013 Destiny Gameplay Demo, bloom is also featured in Destiny, though it is not confirmed that every weapon will have it.
