No, they don’t push back. They push down in the game.
Since when a gun placed on the ground can move downwards irl?
I’m very interested to see the physics behind this “realistic” feature.
(A simple kinematic drawing with marked force and torque vectors will suffice.)
I said somewhat realistic. And they dont push down ether
They do in the game.
And I still don’t get how is that even close to being realistic.
Pushing down isn’t realistic and the MGs i use dont do that (DP-27 and DT-29)
Ah!
If I remember correctly only german MGs in stalingrad have downwards recoil.
I forgot about it. (Or I’m going mad. Or I’m drunk.)
That would explain why devs don’t want to fix it (in 2min). 0 soviet bias.
Ok, it turns out I heavily missrememberred how the recoil pattern looks like. Sry for the confusion.
But nonetheless, it’s still broken.
Mannlicheeeeers!!! 
But I’m an oddball it’s true. I main riflemen squads in Stalingrad, no joke (I find them fun). But I do keep 2 meta sweat squads in reserve for each faction when facing meta spammers (I have 10 slots).
The op point, like you said, doesn’t make any sense. He complains about a feature only found on console… yet he keeps it on all the time and only wish to play with other console players. There’s a big lack of logic here…
idk.
maybe it’s just me, but i don’t see anything… particular weird about it?
it’s an aim assist.
useful in some occasions, and really questionables in others.
but not entirely aggressive as others game.
because you still miss shots.
Not a total oddball I run rifleman units in Moscow and Tunisia, I’ve got one in Stalingrad aswell but honestly that’s just because of the increased Squad cap in Stalingrad.
I keep em around but honestly they get used very infrequently as my order of units goes Armor>Infantry which is usually not a Rifle unit
Rifle squad do make sense in SG.
You’re shooting bots that just stand still…literally can do that easily with or without aim assist
It make more sense in the pacific
KOTEI BANZAI
Just turn aim assist off if it bothers you so much
If i turn it off it puts me at a huge disadvantage because others will use it
And, if you can’t get first place without it you’re simply bad
What platform do you play on?
Series X
What sensitivity do you play on?
Default
No wonder because i play on almost max.
Lower sensitivity helps with recoil but i couldn’t get used to low sensitivity even if my life depended on it
