Joe x360a Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 Call the wahmbulance! I don't think it matters man, sniping is sniping, and the maps are big enough so that it wouldn't make much difference. If you don't want to snipe, man up and grab a bazooka Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cypher_Cobra Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 BF isn't a prone game, which is annoying since the prone is probably the most important firing position. You'll just have to make due with the crouched position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

challinko Posted January 11, 2010 Author Share Posted January 11, 2010 What do you need to go prone for? Kneeling completely hides you in a bush. doesn't matter, prone is the most legit army firing position, to not have it just sucks any type of reality the game has in it, at the same time lessening tactical manueverability, not all bushes conceal and not all cover is knee high.

Squirrel257 Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 Id like to see some prone action, but I will have to make do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnnyR74 Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 It is a good question. Why is it so hard to include it? If proning isn't included, it won't bother me. I did fine without it in the first one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kastanaras Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 Don't understand how you could have a Battlefield game without prone? BC1 works just fine with it so why remove it for BC2? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elephantd Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 BC1 was just fine without prone, I think prone isn't in the game to make people keep moving, and less camping.Oh well i'll be in tanks anyways;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuppernicus Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 Don't understand how you could have a Battlefield game without prone? BC1 works just fine with it so why remove it for BC2? Bad Company did not have prone my friend. Played with some diehard Battlefield PC gamers on Bad Company. I asked them about going prone then. They heard, prone was removed to avoid the Dolphin jump: Jump and then go prone and then rinse and repeat, guess it was annoying on the PC, gamers looked like dolphins jumping around on the battlefield to avoid getting shot.They hated it it. But, you can never really trust what you hear online, even though one of the guys was one of my former students. Good one at that. Still it's not a big deal really, this isnt COD, the maps are "friggin huge guy theory" big. Keep um in line Joe x360. "Man up!" Good times- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
challinko Posted February 1, 2010 Author Share Posted February 1, 2010 the dolphin jumping is a crock of shit excuse, its all in how they program the game, it can be stopped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sinwar14 Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 bad company is a fast paced game and going prone makes its a slower paced game cuz of the huge maps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mejimmeh45 Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 (edited) so your not going to buy this because you cant go prone? thats stupid. Also snipers are hard enough to find without prone. Edited February 9, 2010 by mejimmeh45 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaytaMalikai Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 I assume that prone isn't in the game because the maps are big enough that it's kind of irrelevant, and also because it's already hard enough to see people hiding in trees. But I gotta agree, lack of cover has put me off sniping in the demo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dombine Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 You can't go prone, which I thought was silly but after playing the demo as a sniper for 2 hours, I fell back in love with Bad Company and I can not wait for this title! I love the first and I love the demo for the second. I just hope the story is good and the Veteran Ranks lead on over from the first title. I still can't add Battlefield 1943 to my Veteran Rank >:l Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dombine Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 Also, one of my fav moments in the Demo sniping is... I was defending right at the back, with my sniper rifle. 2 guys on a quad bike head my way. I go to shoot the bike but it turns left quickly and I clipped the back of the Quad. The Quad blows up! both bodies fly forward and up in the air and the burning vehicle does a cork screw in the air before crashing into the water. Epic Win!

ChipmunksRus Posted February 7, 2010 Share Posted February 7, 2010 I honestly must say I would hate battlefield if you could go prone, there would be too many snipers camping, you'd get killed from people hiding under things, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ex DeAdLy SkiLlZ Posted February 7, 2010 Share Posted February 7, 2010 you guys are mad prone is not in the game because you have no scope movement so who gives a fuck plus yes on bf2 you could take out a whole server Dolphin jumping although it did take a nice amount off skill to keep doing it.i think dice just thort if we let em go prone you gonna get people that are going to sit 3mile away and no one will be able to see them gliching threw bushes and the crouch is enough so the snipers are happy as well as everyone else Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bawj Posted February 7, 2010 Share Posted February 7, 2010 Even with a sniper scope you can barely see someone crouching across the map, being able to go prone is just overkill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taiyz Posted February 7, 2010 Share Posted February 7, 2010 the dolphin jumping is a crock of shit excuse, its all in how they program the game, it can be stopped. I think it's a perfectly valid reason, honestly. It's the number one thing I hate in Modern Warfare 2. It looks ridiculous for people to jump and immediately go prone, and annoyingly it actually works really well if you don't have a 1-shot kill lined up.

iCondemned Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 Why the hell do you want to prone for? It's not fun when you prone and the point of this is that it's BATTLEFIELD! Not Modern Wargay 2. I don't think there should be proning in this game. It would unbalance the game completely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hot Juicy Pie Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 BF isn't a prone game Really? You're an idiot. Prone has been in EVERY BF game. Fans of going prone in shooters, shuffling along the dirt to gain a strategic advantage on their adversaries, look away now. Announcing his aversion to the ability on Twitter (where else?), Battlefield: Bad Company 2 lead designer David Goldfarb is not a fan of the move. Fyi we will not add prone based on anything. You can stop asking now. http://www.thesixthaxis.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif Of course you can crawl on your belly in MAG, if you still feel the urge. Some people are saying the prone feature will not be supported in Battlefield: Bad Company 2 as it “slows down the game.” There are others, however, who feel its omission is due to the phenomenon of “Dolphin Diving” found in Battlefield 2. No, I had never heard of it either. Until now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not Modern Wargay 2. I don't think there should be proning in this game. It would unbalance the game completely. You are smaller target, and harder to see while prone. Also your accuracy is better while prone. Why do you think that shooting while moving, or from hip doesn't work in real life, and people shoot from prone position.
