I was thinking this, as I was reading reports that there is now re-coil on on the SMG. I was thinking this must be very hard to take down ELites with two quick shots, (the first obviously taking down its shield). If you could dual weild with the Battle-rifle for ex., you could just press the other trigger once his shield's down and well, he dead!!!

Anyone know this?

Sgt Johnson doesn't use two hands. Anyway, how come you can throw grenades whilst using it?

i understand why the sniper rifle has got recoil now from a gameplay point of view, but from a storyline "ITS REAL!" point of view it sounds a bit crap. I mean MC is pretty strong, if he can flip warthogs and scorpions then surely he'd still keep his steady hand when upgrading his suit. Surely this would mean that the sniper rifle would kill a normal person...

i know i know its being picky.

That would be too easy then. It would be more fun to shoot them a few times before they die.
