Weapon firing makes aiming harder - is this a bug?

[LtDan]

You played too much realistic fpses. In real world only mighty sawed-off-double-barreled-one-shot-protein-salad-making-from-flesh shotgun can kick your arm enough to make you make one step backward.

Very true, for example: I don't know any gun on COD or MOH that makes you move backwards (kickback), but as far as recoil goes, that's a whole other story. In summary: Keep things the way they are. If you don't like kickback, then go play Call of Duty.
PS: Guess what IMMA SHOTTY TANK!
