Can anyone confirm this? I'm at work otherwise I'd try it.

Re: Dolphin Dive still in the game

i dunno what youre smoking, but if you played the patch youd figure its impossible to dolphin dive, it takes like 3 seconds to get up from being prone....

if theyre that stupid and hell bent on dolphin diving then theyre too stupid to try that anyway.

the noob tube still works, so i can smoke these dolphin diving and bunny hopping pansies.

bunny hopping still kind of works, its still very annoying shooting people with it. thats what the noob tubes for!

You can run, jump and dive into prone, but you can't do it repeatedly really fast...

Re: Dolphin Dive still in the game

U cant do it as early as u just reach the peak of the jumping height, U will still be able to get to the prone position near the landing point. all DICE did was delayed prone by half a second, they didnt make it undoable in air.

Re: Dolphin Dive still in the game

Actually, you CAN dolphin dive, but ONLY on the last part of the jump.
So, technically, it doesn't really help much.

You have to press the dive button while you are on your way down from the jump.

You can go prone in the air "dolphin dive".... The only thing they fixed is now you can't spam it.

Re: Dolphin Dive still in the game

Yeah... what they said.

I'm actually really happy with the way they killed the DD spamming. Running and diving over a bunch of sandbags to land on your belly isn't Dolphin Diving. It's diving for cover and it's a fun element. This, you can still do and I'm quite pleased about it.

Re: Dolphin Dive still in the game

The question is can you shoot accurately as before when diving?
I am also at work can't test either.

I agree I like the feature.

You can't shoot in the air at all.
So the answer would be no.

Thks Wargimp that had me a little worried for a sec.

Re: Dolphin Dive still in the game

I think the confusion stems from people having different definitions of what is a "Dolphin Dive".

Some people think it is the act of going prone during a jump (most of my team-mates) which is still possible in 1.2.

Other people (including me) think it is the repetition of going prone, jumping up, going prone which is no longer possible in 1.2.
