Weapon pushback

Post by iRobot » Mon 12 Jan , 2015 5:31 pm

Figured I would ask since I don't see anywhere with an explanation as to why it was removed.

Why do high power weapons such as X83 and M75 no longer cause pushback? They were particularly effective against people who had height over you and were a good choice of weaponry against "rooftop campers".

It is not limited to these two weapons alone most likely.

Cause some retard(s) used it to push ppl of maps in first place than using it against roof campers.

Pushback due to gunfire was normalized from its previous extreme levels in a patch a while ago.

It doesn't seem to be there at all now. You can hit someone from a 45° angle on the Y axis and nothing happens.
