Just wondering, where you able to shoot someone down when knockdowns where in the game? IIRC you could do that to lights/mediums in older MW games while using a Gauss rifle.
As in knock them down with the shot? Strangely enough no you could not.
There were times when you could damage leg and arm actuators and they'd be unable to focus their fire where they aimed or drag left or right. When losing a heatsink meant the difference between 50% heat and 89%. When you could hear ammo explosions rumbling through your mechs as if explosions in distant halls.
But you couldn't knock 'em down by shooting. It was super early in the scripting days, though. The people doing it were so awful with some of the code that some of it really felt band-aided in. Now they have dedicated professional scripters like Karl.
