Crouching...

Re: Crouching...

Crouching = sitting duck for snipers and medic MGs, as well as the noobtube 40 mm.

Strafe is the key crouch or stop drop and roll.

Given at close range that is :)

Left Right Left Right + Burst Fire.

Works for assault and engineer, shotguns and pistols.

MGs are difficult to use in this fashion.

Re: Crouching...

I think crouching actually increases your chances of getting killed. Your head is lower and is now at chest level where most people aim, increasing the chance of getting headshot. Yes its a lower profile when hiding, but once spotted I think it's worse. I've lost several battles where I'm crouching and zoomed in, only to start shooting at an enemy who stands/zooms/fires killing me first.

Also, anyone notice that when crouching behind cover, like a rock or something, you can't see the enemy but they can see much more of your head?
