Marine Recoil

th0r0n

<div class="IPBDescription">Bug or Feature?</div> I remember someone talking about this back in 1.04, with level 0 weapons marines experience no recoil at all, with level 1, screen starts to shake, level 2, screen shakes more, level 3, screen shakes enough to give someone in perfect health acute epilepsy.

I remember some people saying they NEVER experienced this recoil, and a handful of people saying that they did, does everyone get this, or is it a bug?

TeKniKaL

not true.

Should we have recoil?

no, the cone-fire system is good enough without <b>realistic weapon physics</b>. <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif' /><!--endemo-->
What do you want? a HMG that's useless because it has such HUGE recoil?

and i'm sure that screen-shakey bug was fixed, too.

TeKniKaL

unless you play too much cs and have that instinct, then no.

th0r0n

Well I have recoil in large amounts, have done since 1.04, anyone resolved this?

Maveric

this should be in tech support, then... <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif' /><!--endemo-->

It's already hard enough to hit a bouncing skulk without recoil.

You are my e-hero.

typical_skeleton

who's stupid enough to think that a "Veteran" label makes him experienced at all?

Remember Aliens? You know, the sequel to Alien? Well remember how the leader has only had two combat drops?.. but his rank is higher than the rest?

Yeah. It's arbitrary if you haven't gathered by now. So don't act surprised.

A good idea before posting in tech support is to make sure if it's a bug or not, if your petty mind cannot think of anything relavent to post in this thread, then don't post at all.

kthxbye

eric_t

it is relevant. youre a vet and you posted it.

th0r0n

I didnt suggest we HAVE recoil, i was wondering if it was part of the game, because I've had it back since 1.0, only realised it was wrong when someone else commented on it.

i have this recoil thing, I just noticed it a few days ago, the screen shakes up and down as the weapon level goes up. i've always had it, just never noticed it. it was a new feature in 2.0 (i think), and when I asked others who didn't believe they had it to see if their screen shaked at lvl3, they all said they had it. it's really not big enough that it matters in game, but it can be distracting to an extent.

th0r0n

That's the problem, I know someone who's a beta server op that mentioned it back in 1.04, but on lvl3 the recoil on my machine is tremendous, I started noticing it back in 2.0, and I thought it was in by default as well, but a few people assure me they HAVE no recoil, plus, it doesn't really behave like recoil, just mad shaking.

remi

i think i've experienced this. When I'm into the game a lot it doesn't make any difference, but sometimes it just becomes really distracting, and since ht escreen is shaking, i think it makes the muzzleflash sprite move around, obscuring more of my vision, and at times actually making it so i lose track of an alien... bad thing to happen.

wascally_wabbit

My SCREEN doesn't actually shake, however my LMG will move forward and back really really quickly.

I'm not certain if the levels make any difference, I wasn't looking to carefully =P

Post it in the Bug Report forum with your sys specs, please.

eric, I'd suggest you don't derail any further threads.
