Macros are third party programs. That means they're bad.

If I seem high strung, it's because I've been rolling my eyes too much today.

Dairuka, I admit I get ticked by the way you play, but I also admit that I don´t have the skill/time to learn to do the jump/crouch/prone thingy and still kill my enemy.
I prefer start to shoot and and press the sideway keys.

Re: having trouble killing the jump and prone guy, you?

If someone has the drop on my I'll bounce around like a bunny too until I spot him. If it's close combat and he does the prone spam I bounce to the side once and unload while advancing. Lately I've been dropping a clip at him and prone spamming on top of him with a knife. It's so rad to own someone with a knife when he sees it coming.

However, I did it to Rotath and got cocky and typed in PWNEd, he found me and got even. I'm going to knife fight him from now on as it's a good laugh. I like playful competition in a server with some dudes you like.

theirs a trick to killing bunny hoppers or w/e u nubs call them its really easy once u get the hang of it.

Excellent explanation. Care to include us on your wisdom?

So far, I've found that unloading a clip works. It may not be the most effective, but it works. Knives work if you are close enough, but I can never hit that damned #2 when I need to.

I can give you mine...

My reaction to someone hopping depends on what weapon I use and the range.

If I am support a go prone without the iron sites and spray the bejesus out of them. The cone of fire makes things more random but seems to work ok.

If I'm using a sniper rifle I will hit them on the way up (its kind of like stopping the line on the bar in the old PGA golf games)

Any other weapon I will burst fire at head height so if you don't get the head shot the bullets travel down the body as they jump.

This is all at mid - long range and doesn't really apply to dolphin diving. If its close quarter I will try my best to keep my sights trained on them and spray like a nutter.

Hopping DOES help you avoid being hit though. I might hop a few times when I'm trying to work out where I'm getting shot from. But as soon as I know, I start my retaliation and stop hopping. I will always sprint if I need to get away and NEVER hop down the road

Pump action shotguns are the most satisfying because you have to time the shot but always go for the mid air hit.

HOP HOP BOOM :evil:

Re: having trouble killing the jump and prone guy, you?

i am not going to be all high n mighty and blanket stereotype all bunnies by saying they are cheats or hop-whores but i agree with other posters it sure aint nice on the eye, kinda reminds you, you are playing a game....but i guess seeing your teammates being flung into the air like a rag doll by tank or arty fire aint that easy on the eye either.

i have developed a simple way of fending off oncoming bunnies:

i lay down prone, gather my thoughts, breathe and calmly let my shottie or rifle follow their movements and squeeze, normally the pattern is so predicatable you can get a shot when they come down, are in the air or inbetween, they seem to give me a lot of time to deal with hoppers, all this jumping, a hell of a lot slower than if same soldier was making a beeline toward me on the ground normally. i normally end up taking the shot when they are at the summit of there leap. the kick-back effect is kinda cool, like that scene in terminator with the shotgun and the cop in the precinct

Bunny hoppers are easy to hit and kill if you use cover techniques and aiming techniques.

The thing that gets me pissed off is the fact that you get 20 of them flopping around and spamming med packs all the way to your position basically making the invincible.

You make kill a few but I gurantee they will keep hopping diving spamming and reviving until they reach you at which point you are hit already...low on ammo and utterly confused as to which one is a priority target yet none of them are since they all healed on their swim toward you.

I call those guys cheap losers who exploit in order to win and actually think they are using "Skills".

Re: having trouble killing the jump and prone guy, you?

I track them at chest-level (as if they are just running around without hopping), and shoot them as they come down after each hop.

What goes up must come down.

Re: having trouble killing the jump and prone guy, you?

It annoys the pis out of me. Not only is it annoying to be firing a burst into someone's chest only to have them duck out of the path of the bullets, they then tend to headshot me from the floor. Even if I'm moving.

Another thing that pisses the hell out of me is going cyclic with my AK at a guy within 3 feet and he bounce jumps knives you. For the love of GOD if you were unloading 30 rounds of 7.62x39mm into a guy at 700rpm, you'd not onl hit him if he was only 3 feet away, it would also stop him running up to you and knifing you.

Stupid *** one hit kill knife when a .50 BMG takes 2 hits.

On maps where prone jumping is a problem, (Karkand) I tend to use my USMC shotgun as well. I've noticed more and more people are doing it as well. I used to be the only engineer without a vehicle in KArkand, now its like 1/3 engineers, 1/3 medics, 1/3 support.

I finally had a clan member describe how to go insta jump. It strikes me as a stupid pathetic use of the game mechanics.
