Gun Dropping When Shot At

[TJL]

I don't know if it's intended but I get shot at and while I'm aiming down sights my guy drops his gun down in the low ready position making it impossible to return fire without ferociously right clicking to bring sights up again.

I think its meant to simulate your guy panicking and re-flexing. Kind of annoying but I get it.

It's a poorly implemented suppression mechanic that needs tweaking.

Agreed. Not real happy bout a sim that drops our weaps when we need it most. And I don`t see why anyone needs to sim a supression effect. if loads of bullets are coming your way, ya take cover.... THAT = suppression. We don`t need our vision hijecked and weaps dropping etc etc etc. lolol

Its definitely not fair how you can shoot at the same time as an enemy from 10 feet away and he gets to keep shooting no problem. but I have to lower my gun and get all wigged out from getting shot at. Needs tweaking for sure.

Especially when you consider the fact we have body armor and thousands upon thousands of dollars of training and equipment. I know it's not their intention but it make's it seem like they're trying to say the marines ain't ♥♥♥♥.

It makes sense to me when I'm getting hit. It doesn't make sense to me when shots are landing nearby and my character drops his weapon and un-leans. I don't need the game to save me from suppression. If I decide that I'm not getting suppressed enough then the game should let me get shot and die.

[SlowMobius]

yea i dont like this feature to represent being suppressed by enemy fire, its annoying to have a target in sights to only have the barrel drop out of my control

[EnviousEnby]

This is singlehandedly the most irritating and ant-player mechanic in the game. I can't understand how they thought this would be a good idea in any way. I hope they fix it soon

You can turn auto lean off. Agree the ai should have the same reactions to being shot at. Have you been shot at before from multiple attackers? Not too easy to just keep aiming down sight. Your body reacts by telling you to get the **** out of there which causes body involuntary movements

Very true there can be involuntary twitches. Ive also seen Marines give up a corner after being shot at with one round. Not much suppression there. And Ive also seen people completely miss the fact that rounds are landing nearby too.(Heavy tunnel vision.) I also have been supressed in real life. What doesn't happen is dropping my rifle un-leaning and taking cover involuntarily. That is my decision. This game mechanic is overthinking realism and taking agency away from the player. It really is an anti-player mechanic that kills immersion instead of enhance it.

Thanks for considering the feedback. I appreciate all the push for realism and I think it's great that it's not getting removed. It just needs work.

I think the issue is that in a sim, the player will never fear for their life. So that fear has to be simulated some way. Im not saying that the devs solution is the best way to do it but I see where it is coming from.

[Ho Lee ♥♥♥]

I actually like it tbh. Yeah you will never fear for your life from you pc...so make it harder to return fire. Doesnt seem unfair really, get behind cover, then re-engage
