Can you shoot through boxes or barricades like in cs? Cause in one game I saw a guy running towards me, shooting, so I take cover behind a barricade, and he somehow he kills me I see it at the topleft screen...so is this possible?
Yes and no...
respectively.
Well barrels have a very bad tendency in BF2 to actually blow up and their blast radius is suprisingly quite large considering.
So I would refrain from hiding behind those.

also, sometimes a limb can be seen through the wall you're hiding next to. I've been killed this way a few times.
Yeah try not to go prone and reverse into a wall, your legs will stick out.
U can shoot through wooden objects for the most part. I have killed ppl by using the uav to spot ppl behind a wooden fence and shooting them through it. I have been shot through corners but i think its just lagg. but if ur in a tank and the person is hiding in a wooden hut u can shoot the hut an if they are near the wall they will be damaged.
very few people successfully hide, cos there's always someone on the open side of your cover
Yes u can actually. For example, I have shot many people thru those thin metal fences by using a machinegun. And if I remember correctly, they advertised the game with something like "soldiers must know the difference between cover and camoflauge" or something.

Blame the BF2 engine. Some of your body parts will go through massive objects if you get close to them. So technically you can't shoot through walls and stuff but sometimes the body of your enemy is not fully covered by the wall and you can kill him...
I think it's funny when people hide behind tin fences when they see my tank comming. Then when I shoot the cannon the splash damage goes through the fence and kills them. I then get called a wall hacker. Yeah, since when can tanks shoot through very thin and wobbly tin fences??

I have knifed and sniped a few people that had their feet sticking out of walls! I acheived my Expert Knife Badge by killing two victims this way!
oh yes and let's not forget the phenomenon of homing bullets......
example:
You are being shot at, you see the person who is firing, but you are reloading. You run like a madman around a corner and then when there is no direct line of fire you get the fatal bullet from that guy that can no longer see you....
