Some prone opponents seem to want to power up the defenders. Are you saying power up the attackers(even if the "power up" is merely encouragement to attack)?
Also, no one has offered any proof that not having prone will encourage attacking or vice versa, that prone will discourage attacking. Most of you have stated that you do not accept other games, and their implementations of prone, as proof that prone works, because they are not large scale MMO FPS games. I will therefore reciprocate and state that since PS1 did not have prone, it is therefore not acceptable as proof that it doesn't work. As a result, the only way to settle this is to test it during beta.
If the prone opponent faction is right, then there should be obvious problems that arise in the beta, and you will all be proven correct.
