DICE are trying to add another thing to the patch which no one asked for; decreased accuracy for a short period while going prone.
I wouldnt mind so much if the deviation only lasted while actually proned, but it sounds likes it gets carried forward to other movements. So if you quickly go standing -> prone -> crouch -> standing accuracy is still decreased while standing! This means you cant effectively duck up and down behind cover, which will ruin infantry gameplay. Plus it slows down the pace of the game having to wait ages to aim.
In my opinion, the insta-prone tactic at the moment is pretty balanced; increased accuracy but a static target. In close combat its a huge disadvantage and are easily killed by someone strafling. At long range your an easy target for a sniper.
