Planetside 2 Needs Prone

[Ratstomper]

After reading some of the points made here; I still fail to see how prone would bring anything remotely worthwhile to the game. Why exactly do you want to prone? Are you wanting to just lay in a corner and mow people down as they walk in the room? It's not like the cover in the bases and outside of them are so tiny that you have to prone to hide behind them. They seem quite adequate with crouching. Furthermore, I don't remember ever having issues with sniping duels in prone. In fact it made them more fun. Noone wants to spend 5 hours pixel hunting the douchebag camping up on the ridge whose shots are clipping through the hilltop.

I just fail to see why it would bring ANYTHING to the game at all besides some cheap, half-assed, gimicky type FPS bullcrap that we play planetside to get away from.
