This bug drives me crazy. It happens a lot to me during infantry play. I'll go prone, do some shooting, try to stand up to run away but it'll do that jittery bs and stays prone. By that time I'm usually dead since the other guy has an easy target.

I think that it might be related to the sniper scope bug, and the double reload bug, which all tend to happen if you do things too quickly sometimes.

Anyone got any tips on how to avoid/fix this bullshit?

Don't play Karkand...

No, it just seems to be the delay that was introduced in 1.4

Isn't the delay is supposed to keep you from shooting right after you change stance... what happens to me is i'll go prone, shoot, press z to stand up again and I'll get up, jiggle around for a bit, and then go back to prone. I don't touch a thing after I press z to stand up. So effectively, I can't get up after shooting while prone.

It only happens sometimes too... the rest I can get back up fine. Which tells me that it's a bug that's happening only sometimes. It drives me just as crazy as zooming in after reloading the sniper, only to have the gun unscope by itself.

The delay was added in patch 1.4, it applies only when you are not shooting. If you are shooting before you hit "z", and then hit "z" again to stand up, the effect is very minimal. But you were not shooting when u stood up, so u got the delay.

But it's not just a delay... it's a delay PLUS going back to prone. Is this what everyone is experiencing when they stand up after being prone? I'm not telling the game to make me go prone again, it does that on it's own. Then after that I stood up on my own by pressing z again.

sorry, didn't read ur post to well. I get this problem sometimes, but I believe it's lag that's causing the bug, (ur system or the server). And with the new delay in 1.4, it's even harder to get away with it, so i'd suggest you find a few servers that give you a relatively low and stable ping. For example, I no long will play on a server where I get a ping higher than 90, and if it's going up and down by 10 every 2 seconds, i leave (40, 60, 50, 45, 60, 50... and so on <to me is unstable and I leave).

try going to crouch to get up from prone.
i never press prone to get up from being prone anyway,crouch from prone is quicker as it has less delay to getting back on your feet.
