I have to disagree on the comment that prone made BF worse. I don't care if its in PS2 or not, but I thought they did justice by adding prone into BF3.

In the 70 hours I've played BF3 (not a lot i know) i've seen 2 people camping in the corner with a LMG. If they were lucky enough to shoot me in the back it was hardly an effort to locate them when I respawned and kill them.

I thought the lack of prone in BFBC2 encouraged snipers to get cheap shots on me while i knelt behind a block that didn't cover my head. In BF3 If I'm suppressed I can go prone, lay down a med kit and come up prefiring. Hardly camping. If anything it protects me from camping snipers, AT whores and Noob tubers.
