Jump/Dive -> Prone still accurate

[TotalBF2er]

Is it just me, or the lag, or what?

Why is it many times when I have proned, sighted an enemy, taken my time to line him up/lead him, then do short bursts to kill him, he can discover me, hop around then jump to prone and kill me in 1 shot (or 3 missed/1 shot).

It's almost like his actions boost his accuracy rather than degrade it. I thought the recent patch removed this by causing a delay.

But since I have returned to BF2 after 8 months of hiatus, and liking the changes, somehow players have figured out how to dive->prone and get off amazing shots again...

I don't get it. What's going on? Hacks? Macros?

IMO they need to make it so when you first prone, you are VERY unaccurate (think PKM while running).. and slowly get accurate.

So that would encourage thinking ahead and also the person that was proned first has the advantage of accuracy, but is an easy target.

So idk.. but yeah.


I think it's kind of stupid there is no accuracy drop what so ever.

I thought the patch took care of that though. A lot of times I'm even dead before they hit the ground. Now in most cases, it could be someone else's bullet contributing, and I'm aware of that. I like to think I'm pretty observant about things and can tell the difference.

The same thing used to kind of happen in Counterstrike a lot as well. You'd be shooting someone in the back, then they'd whip around and get a headshot on you. LOL. It was almost like some sick, cruel joke put in the game just to screw with your mind

1.4 only realy added a delay between going prone to crouch, which doesn't really have that much of an impact on bunny hopping and prone spamming.

Yup, accuracy is still there. I love when you sneak up on a guy shot um wit ha few bullets and he drops prone instantly and one hit kills you. It makes you just wanna play the game. **** ea

I find when I am in the heat of it, and I can bunny hop out of a situation while trying to reload, I am still able to get the drop on someone, once I am reloaded. It is the strangest thing. I mean, someone is hiding behind some crates, I will charge the crates on the farside of the target, jump around, and come up behind and have no deviation.

Sadly, yes I do go prone a lot, but when I do, I find that people actually light me up quicker. I see a difference from the patches. I sucks too, but hey, it gets people to stand-up and fight like men.

Re: Jump/Dive -> Prone still accurate

the delay was added in 1.4 and nothing will ever be done to combat the macros im afraid. the accuracy shouldnt differ all that much. i would assume in the situation you are describing that, it has more to do with the weapon (power,accuracy and ROF) and your overall shot placement. however i have been wrong before.

i think its dum how they nerfed proning and having a time before you can shoot, in real life as soon as you hit the ground you can fire you gun at will

J10> anything else you can think up> strafing ground troop> F35> insta prone.
