Stew must have just woken up, because now this thread is going to last another 50 pages because he will post the same useless rant bumping it. Please lock this thread points have been made and it's just going to be arguing and "my opinion is better" attacks.
Prone isnt for camping with snipers prone is for rushers mostly

the point was not been made at least for you because it seams you did not read others arguments because most people who want prone are rushers not camping snipers

most people want prone to actually be able to play with the terrain and with cover when they need it if my only way to survive is been prone for 2 sec the time to reload and if my only cover could be a crate 2 feet tall or a rock 2feet tall or very little hillside

I want to be able to do it to safe my life not having crouch and having half of my chest and head expose

this is the main reason , snipers , campers , non mooving target , have nothing to do with it

and also prone will not change players mentality and play style

so why not remooving clock since some people will all take a sniper with cloak and will camp behind this will slow the gamepace and flow of the game ? no matter if they are crouch they are invisible at distance

but the truth his we dont need to remmove cloak beause not everyones will use it or abuse it

we will see in the beta if it work or not but its a welcome mechanics for a front line rusher like me

"this is the main reason , snipers , campers , non mooving target , have nothing to do with it "

Maybe not for you, and hats off to you for not abusing it, but prone does create those exact problems and the game is based around being able to crouch to take cover so there's absolutely no reason to change it. Prone would do nothing for a rusher in this type of scale because if you used it you'd just get naded for sitting somewhere too long.

I think you're believing the game didn't have cover in mind for people crouching and this isn't the case, perhaps you should watch the E3 Streams again and look at the terrain.

Prone encourages static gameplay... crouch is plenty.

Funny because Planetside 2 is basically a BF3 clone w/ Planetside's scale, vehicles, weapons, theme, and classes.

But hey, Bad Company 2 didn't have prone either. So I guess it's a Bad Company 2 clone.

Funny because Battlefield is a Doom clone.

NO no you don't I believe that prone will greatly enhance the gameplay. scared of campers In war campers survive:the rolleyes:
Sniper will need the skill, and guerilla warfare types like me will use the to hide in brush, and knife my opponents. Just like crouch it is a very useful skill.

I hate prone. I've found little reason to use anything but it 90% of the time in BF3.
