Posted September 4, 200520 yr After playing for a while now I see BFII has all the same annoying little problems that FA has. The only thing with BFII is you don't know everyone so well so you don't dislike them as much for their tactics and mostly playing with <TAC> guys you don't dislike any of them LOL. THe bunnyhopping and insta proning are terrible. I know you try to avoid being shot but these guys are proning up and down so fast it looks like they are doing the "worm dance". ANNOYING. At least they can't jump 20 feet in the air like in FA and have perfect aim as they fly around you and kill you. I changed my name because the first name didn't have the <TAC> tags on it and now I am having a hard time getting points back up to Lance Corporal. I like being lone wolf when I play and not in squads. Too much pressure to do everything right and think too much. I like to just run around and kill people or use a tank. If I die it's my problem and don't let everyone down. Oh well, I will keep at it until I get better like the rest of you guys. SO when I reach Lance Corproal again I won't know which weapon to get because I took G36 last time and I liked the origianl spec ops weapon better. Now, I am trying sniping but I don't get many points sniping so I abandon it quickly for something else. Support seems ok with that big MG. Easy to kill with that but for me hard to get to a spot where there are people to kill.
September 4, 200520 yr Yeah, I hate the instant proning, it's so anoying because it makes the support class so damn powerful, they just instant prone and waste you...
September 4, 200520 yr the only way they can really fix the prone is to make a delay of a second or so. you should be able to prone in the air but not unprone.
September 4, 200520 yr Klink, support is only good in squads when lonewolfin it isn't much of a help cuz you need the squad members to distract the oppent and you tagging him
September 4, 200520 yr im even worse, not only do i die, i take the gun in the blackhawk and then watch tv. Only to find out that i missed a bunch of enemies
September 5, 200520 yr Hello. My name is K2 and I'm an insta-proner. <GROUP> Welcome K2. I must admit that I insta prone sometimes. For whatever reason it's a lot easier for me to hit my 'Z' key rather than my 'Ctrl' key (Z being my prone). Perhaps I should move crouch to my 'Shift' key. Maybe that would help make me less "annoying."
September 5, 200520 yr My name is Macgyver. I am an instaproner too. I have mouse 4 linked up for it. It is a very fast way to get an instproner fix. Welcome Instaproning Macgyver.
September 5, 200520 yr What really bothers me is the gun mounted nade launchers. They need to be fixed immediately.
September 5, 200520 yr I dont instaprone till its required. When someone thinks its cool to try killing the guy fixing some artillery, then its ON.
September 5, 200520 yr i liked a lot, but i cant play multiplayer for some reason. waste of 50 bucks if u ask me
September 5, 200520 yr Oh you hate that instant proneing me too... ...but you know what actually bugs me even more? The fact that you can unload into ppl with a AH-17 (the attack chopper) machine gun and not kill them. Or how about the AA tank? useless ! Most of the time I have the sams make sharp turns to go hit team vehicles instead of the target I have the lockon?!?!? (same goes for the ground Sams) Oh and then the guns on that AA tank worthless unless you attack infantry ok done [DIAL]Doc P.S. I think when you go prone or jump from prone you must be invulerable or something...
September 5, 200520 yr How long does it take to go prone in real life? I see no problem with it and feel it is part of the game. If you thnk I am going to stand up and let you shoot me so you feel good inside, don't plan on it. I will hit the dirt as soon as I hear someone shooting at me. It's common sense...
September 5, 200520 yr well...the thing that bugs me is...THOSE DAMN GP30/M203/GP25 RUSHERS!!!! D:<! gawd they just run up, shoot a nade, and you die at CLOSE RANGE and they dont! D:<

I am with gator... Oh BTW my name is StateCop and I too am an insta-proner I also find myself whoring it up in the Blackhawk while people repair it....How did I let myself get to this?
September 5, 200520 yr Hi, my name is BountyHunter and I'm no one. [GROUP] *quickly turns away of him and starts rushing towards a door*
September 5, 200520 yr how do you prone other than 'insta proning'? you hit the button, and it does its thing you cant control the speed. mid air un proning is the only problem, them being able to pop right back up when you hit the ground
September 5, 200520 yr I think the instant proneing issue is for one you can still shoot while doing this and don't even loose any accuracy (as far as I can tell) 2nd there is people who just prone jump prone jump all the time and still manage to shoot you while doing so and that's I think where the biggest flaw in it lies. Just my 2 prones, [DIAL]Doc
September 5, 200520 yr Author how do you prone other than 'insta proning'? you hit the button, and it does its thing you cant control the speed. mid air un proning is the only problem, them being able to pop right back up when you hit the ground That's what I meant the guys that fly through the air prone then land and are still shooting you then pop up and land and pop up ,meanwhile you are standing there bewildered just admiring the acrobatics. In real life there aren't that many Michael Jacksons that can do those moves on the battlefield.
September 5, 200520 yr an easy fix is to make jumping and or proning take up a lot of your stamina, like DOD, they have a good system
September 5, 200520 yr Hmm, if some smacktard instaprones on me I usually plant a 203 nade on his head fron 2mtr away

September 5, 200520 yr that's why US is getting owned in iraq :x I can picture this in my mind's eye:US soldier is bunny-hopping and instant-proning runninground and spraying on heavily defended terrorist training camp. The terrorists would sooner die of laughter than of bullets. This feature should be incorporated into BF2 - death of hysteric laughter granting the 'clown' two additional kill points.
