Prone dive kills are alive and well in bf2. Falling on the floor is an excellent combat tactic but not the best gameplay

The reason it works is the hitbox is altered instantly not gradually. To some extent it applies to crouch also, not sure if they fixed it in css but in cs it was noted as an easy dodge. Prone is the more extreme because the players profile is altered so much

Ive not played bf2 as much as some here and i also usualy play whilst drinking.

BUT i swear ive got headshots as people go from standing to crouch and prone.

Sometimes at point blank they go down and i shoot at what was waist height on them and get the kill.

I like prone but wish it took longer till you could fire to stop the spammers.
 
amuses me how uptight some people are getting about the lack of prone, equally how uptight people got about the lack of dedicated servers in MW2.

Giving dedicated servers just gives the option for 13 year olds to have admin passwords and rule the server kicking people they dont like. CS it was even worse, they had admin mods which enabled them to kill people who didnt play the way they didnt want them to play, and slap them about and all the other stuff the mods can do.

No dedicated servers = no childish server admins, which is a good thing. Equally the same thing with prone, people are getting sore over nothing. Crouching enables you to stop and become more accurate, whats so important about prone anyway ?

I very rarely come across those types of admin and the few that exist are a small price to pay. I mean arsey admins or crap pings for pretty much everyone leading to dodgy hit detection, lag and the resulting cheating accusations. I know which id rather put up with.

I'd like to have prone in, obviously gives a more stable firing platform and presents a smaller target to the enemy, again on balance though Id gladly see the back of it in order to get rid of dolphin divers.

play big community servers tbh.

Admin abuse quickly gets reported and removed.

Admin however do enforce the servers rules not their own personal ones.

Totally agree with this..... Every admin in our clan is voted in by the other members and admin, they have a weeks trial if they are idiots with its removed straight away.

Our golden rule is dont use admin when drunk.... that causes so much problems! apart frm that all admin follow guidelines + we have a server ban section in which people can report admin abuse.
 
prone is always usefull as a sniper. It's just the "done thing" when sniping imo

Think about it, you on one knee your going to swap a bit, tummy to the floor theres going to be very little movement. When implemented in a game correctly, its good. :)

I think you are missing the point - no dedicated servers means relying on flakey matchmaking systems, terrible lag, no community servers and difficulties for competitive gaming. Those very same 'childish' admins are the ones that kick or ban the griefers/hackers/mic spammers etc. that plague every fps game nowadays. In over 10 years of playing fps online I have rarely come across any 'admin abuse', but have lost count of the hundreds of idiots that I have seen kicked or banned, not to mention all the great people and friends I have met through playing on well run and adminned community servers.

You really think that that it is worth not having dedis and taking so much away just so you don't get annoyed by a childish admin? :confused:
 
Admins can be a right bunch of knob heads at times......

Take yesterday, for example, i was playing BF2 mod Forgotten hope 2, 3 times in a row i took out a clan member who got pxxxxx off, who had a word with his 'chum' the admin, and i got kicked....for no other reason than someone was daring to play better than one of the clan members.

Its that sort of admin abuse that can ruin a game.

This is the moron im talking about...

I know what you mean, getting banned for no reason, without proof of anything sucks big time.

That sort of abuse can defo ruin any game,

wow welcome back to 1998 lol , as stated above they are few and far between back then and if you did find 1 there was 27000 other servers ....oh yeah werent they dedicated ....we had a weak console port called MW2 because of this kinda train of thought .....and i dont think its needed .....just my 2 cents worth ...have a nice new year ......now to pre order BFbc2 .......some companies just do it right i guess.
 
@ MrLOL

I'm lost for words lmao

And if you get banned, its ONLY 1 server. There's ONLY another 15000 of them.

Lol, move along.
 
I would much rather put up with the rare power happy admin than the many people who are out just to ruin the game for everyone else. There are far more of them.

Yeah thats fine with a game like CSS, but when its something like Forgotten Hope 2, like i play, which only has 2 or 3 active servers with reasonable numbers playing (32+), having knob head admins restricts your options.
 
Yea it is annoying on a stagnant game/mod but you wouldn't even be playing that mod without dedis :)
 
Idiot admins are in every game mate. They always have been there. As long as companies sell servers to silly children, they always will be here haha.

I cannot wait for BC2. I hope to get back the lost community from CSS with BC2
