So which one do you prefers?
Every thing with -40% vertical recoil perk?
Or maybe every thing -30% horizontal recoil perk?
Or maybe a little mix like automatique and smg => vertical and LMG => horizontal?
I got the feeling this one is better with horizontal:
And this one is better with vertical:
I always go for vertical.
Imo horizontal recoil is harder to control in most cases (especially in case of stalingrad MGs).
But personally, reload speed is the way to go.
I tend to go vertical every single one and horizontal on thommy guns just because.
If somehow the game gives me horizontal befor a vertical roll on a gun besides thompsons I get It and keep it.
Every soldier I go vitality, recoil and run speed. Even engineers with garands have it, I rather have the soldier equiped now with them even with no actual use and change the weapon to another one latter that works with that perk and start over again latter.
vertical for everything apart german mgs and obviously Bolt actions
Vertical everywhere except german mgs.
Only if in weapon stats horizontal recoil is bigger then 1/2 vertical.
I use horizontal the most. its way more useful i think
People use recoil perk for PPSh?
As a rule of thumb;
I use smgs? Vertical.
I use lmgs? Horizontal.
semis are also vertical, but since I only dump a mag while at arms lenght of my enemy, it matters not…
But those are just my preferences.
Vertical is the way to go but depending on the weapon horizontal
Generally speaking, I tend to take all firearms to the range, video it, and slow it down so I can see which plane it is bouncing on more, and use that as the factor in determining which skill to add.
Same, I have a trooper/assaulter/mg guys with only the hori perk and another with just vert perk, so when I get a new gun I equip both with it and see which perk is better for me.
Vertical on all smgs and lmgs. Works great for me.
50% more chance to down into a critical state upon taking critical damage perk.
This with 200% health from medkit and 75% medpak speed.
Generally I take horizontal on anything automatic and vertical on anything semi automatic. The one exception being automatic rifles, many of which I prefer with vertical reduction.
H for anything with H > or = V. So German MGs, M1919A6, Tommy w/ drum, Sten. Also testing on a few select weapons with H >10 where it feels nice. Vertical is the go to for everything else tho.
P.S. on the AS-44 and Stg-45(M) squads you can get both so you have basically no recoil.
Neither as I use those points for the 50% chance of survival and if I have more points, reload speed perks.
I fully upgrade the guns I mainly use but I never use recoil perk
She said vertical recoil is the best
