Prone is a crutch for campers and has no place in BFBC2

gee, just throw a blanket statement out there why don't you? :laugh:

hey, i proned to avoid being seen by a tank. i also proned to hide myself after being hit by a sniper. i must be a camper. :shakehead:

The game is not balanced for prone.

Hes talking about a video game.

And, hes right.

Re: DICE's demize calls prone "crutch for campers"

No prone works for this game. It was made like that. Just imagine all the hassles if there was prone. Prone spamming, ppl staying/hiding in one spot all the time, game flow will be slower, etc.

I do hope BF3 has it though, but you know, done right.

No prone also equals no Dolphin Dive, which was a huge issue in BF2, so that suits me just fine.

the engine probably cant handle prone that is why all these exuses are being made,why dont the nurf it down to auto aim also

no prone is just stupid but the kiddies will buy it anyway

To be honest I think its sad when developers make comments like this. Either give some real justification (which some of the devs have done already) as to why you didn't put it in the game or don't say anything at all. All this serves to do is to annoy the people on one side of the argument.

Re: DICE's demize calls prone "crutch for campers"

So what he's saying is... The game isn't balanced for prone?

Gee, where have I heard something like that.

Re: DICE's demize calls prone "crutch for campers"

Should we eliminate corners too? Campers like to sit in corners. Perhaps we should take out things to defend too; I mean they only encourage camping don't they? We don't want anyone sitting around defending or completing objectives. We want people running around aimlessly, constantly on the move!

And thus the birth of squad deathmatch.

Hoo-****ing-rah.

We should have maps with nothing on them but a floor, so nobody gets to camp, everybody is exposed all the time.

if they are making a fast paced version of battlefield (this is Bad Company remember not Battlefield 2 or 3) then sure I can live with it

I was always more of a get into the action kind of player, rather than sitting back in prone

that said it does have its uses in terms of cover etc

I agree with him. :awes2

Well considering with BC1 they added the Gold rush game mode, which made it so one team has to DEFEND those gold crates then surely they expect people to camp? I can live without it, it wasn't in the first BC so I don't really think it's really necessary for the game I kinda don't get why people are making such a fuss about it either, so what you can't go prone? It doesn't make that much of a difference apart from for snipers maybe but BC1 didn't really have as many open spaces for snipers when you compare it to BF2.

That was actually a really awesome JO-TR map. Just a flat surface, spawns very far apart. You really get to be a very accurate shot in that.
