Knock-back and lying on back

[Tullu]

I think there should be some sort of knock-back that accompanies being shot in the leg or even more so in your armor. 

All this GEN6 armor forces players into a testosterone competition of who can land more hits faster and better.

Furthermore, I think being able to lie on your back should become a thing. Allowing you to operate the weapon with relative ease when lying on the floor.

I hope that^ was enough to get my idea across to allow further elaboration.

Strongly agree! It would make shotguns super satisfying. Shotguns would also especially need the knock-back. It would make them viable to use also with other than AP-20 ammo. Right now its frustrating to dump 3 super performance shotgun rounds into someone at 5 meters doing like 400 damage, but with no visible effect.

On a more serious note, this would be an awesome way to put some downsides to being heavily armored. Strong armor ergo more knock-back. Knowing very little about coding, this could be "easily" implemented. 

Hits to head should knock the view up, stomach and torso down, legs down and whatever side gets hit. Arms right or left.

They'll never do this cuz of body armour drills. They arent 2 chest, 1 face. It's 2 to the hips/groin, 1 to the face when they're on the floor.
