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

    I don't get the big deal with prone. In the end it doesn't matter, because if the last two PC BF games has taught us anything, people will flock to the most cluster****ish maps with the most bottleneck areas where only medic and support is required, then spam hand grenades and other explosives ad nauseum until the game finally tells you the round is over. For the poster who was wondering why DICE seems to be going the way of the mindless shooter, just gaze at the sheer quantity of 24/7 Gib and 24/7 Karkand servers and you have your answer. The people still playing the game have shown what they want, so why should DICE put something like prone in the game when people really just want an explosives spamfest game and prone doesn't help with throwing nor evading explosions (aside from sticking your head into a wall to avoid a nade, which is a glitch)?

        Every "battlefield " game had prone!,now we dont get it because consoles dont have the button for it:shakehead:,no wonder a few of us are not happy:nod:

        Also issues with hitboxes on divers may be a bad lag issue or ping if you think its that bad dont play on laggy servers

                    I hope DICE Canada never gets to go near this game, Sure they released patches early and on time but they screwed up so much, that its worth waiting longer for a patch then get one that screws with the gameplay.

                    I never had issues with hit reg...

                      Consoles do have a button for prone. In most games its the same button used for crouch. Come on man get your facts straight!

                        indeed

                        every battlefield game did have prone

                        but as Dice have pointed out before, this is Bad Company

                          I thought it was called Battlefield: Bad Company 2? It's not a continuation of BF2 or BF2142, but yet a different Battlefield game. All the other Battlefield games did have prone. (and almost all of the other fps games I can think of have prone)

                            its a battlefield game, but in the bad company mould, as in the console version of the game, if the game is designed in that manner and prone is not included when the pc version is made, I can understand the decision by Dice entirely

                            then again either way I wouldn't mind if it was in or not

                            and a looooooooooooot of fps games do not have prone

                            although some would say that Battlefields gameplay neccessitates the inclusion of prone

                              jesus i dont think they are dealing with things the right way. howbout instead of getting rid of prone they fix the crappy BF game mechanics
