The reason why your legs stick out of the wall if you hide in a corner

[F-1]

Because they do not have a collision mesh!

Weird how the bottom point of the collision mesh can go through the wall though.

yeah...i dunno if its still possible but you could knife the leg that is sticking out through the wall and kill the person.

On occasions I'm able to shoot the exposed leg and kill the other guy.

Yeah I've made a few guilty kills by shooting peoples exposed legs.

EA should atleast reprogram them so the hitbox doesn't have any effect if damage is implied during that glitch.

I have a feeling that this would be nontrivial.

how did you figure that out? did you extract some files or what?

yeah.....and it was the same as in bf1942

you don't even fire from your gun barrell- you fire from your belly button (well a bit above it actually). this was done so you can put your gun through a wall using col. mesh and shoot someone.

thats why sometimes you kill yourself firing an AT round over some railing only to explode yourself because your belly wasn't above the railing.

Oh yeah, that's the best. I love having a tank ready to be killed only to die by firing into a clear wall! :laugh:

Yea, i always wondered why i would walk by and see peoples legs sticking out of the cornor of a building.

Could it be due to computer limitations? From my very basic knowledge of game programming, you have to be very careful about how you use hitboxes and collisions because complicated ones tie up a lot of CPU.

But, it doesn't seem that hard to just extend it. This is a cool thread.

I wish they would just fix it, since its been around since BF1942.

That's handy to know.
