Weird, because it is constantly happening to me.
Before I decided to post this, I made sure it wasn't just coincidence or bad luck. But being 50+ hours into H&H now, it feels like a pattern.

I'd say 7 out of 10 times enemies slide to the side after my release. Very close shots are fine. It happens on large(r) distances. Say from 10 meter out. I aim, let if fly and poof... immediate slide to the side. Not even a step... a true slide, like something gave them a push.
