I know when you are dual-weilding that if you fire both weapons at the same time, there is a significant recoil, but what I want to know, if anyone out there does know, is, is there going to be recoil on your weapons when you are only using one weapon? and is there going to be any recoil when you are dual-weilding but still only using one weapon?

I was thinking today how a gun (like the battle rifle) would change modes just because the user looked in the scope...and i figured the reason why you shoot single shots with the BR while zoomed is cause MC is compensaiting...sacrificing rapity for accuracy...other than that i have no thoughts on recoil cept for the fact that MC has less then marines considering his super strength

Im sure there will be recoil with single weapons as well. Not as strong of course, but i bet there will be some.

I think that recoil wouldn't affect the MC's aim when he's using one gun at a time... but as we know, the sniper rifle is going to have a recoil and that'll take care of those rapid-fire extreme snipers.

that's what I'm thinking. With his augmented speed, strength and reflexes, I dont think he should have ANY recoil whatsoever, even while dual weilding, but it's apparent that Bungie see's things differently, and that's fine by me.

I'm just curious as to the recoil when only firing one weapon though.

Like if MC has just one SMG equipped, then there is no reason for him to have any recoil at all considering his strenght.
