2142 is really lame with the delay...but now they put it in BF2 after it's been out for 4 freaking years. So what's up with that? is it any good? Has anyone tried playing with it?

- So, is the new prone delay in the patch any good?

2142 is way better, and soldiers shooting while crounching look way more realistic then bunch of vBF2 dolphins.killaer wrote:

It's much, much less extreme than in BF2142.
Same principle though, but the deviation corrects itself so quickly that it'll have gone away by the time you've hit the ground with most weapons.
Pistols have less time before full correction than LMGs, which correct faster than Carbines, who correct faster than SMGs who correct faster than ARs.
I'm not totally sure about sniper rifles but from some testing they seem to be pretty close to SMGs.
Also LMGs, Pistols and most Carbines are corrected by the time you are fully in the prone position.
Also as Longbow said, you can always just crouch, in CQC you don't need the accuracy that much and at longer ranges it takes a good amount of time to acquire shots so it's not a big problem there either.

Well, that's comforting at least. I just can't stand going prone and sitting there for 5 seconds while my enemy pisses all over me
I tend to laugh at anyone that says anything about realism when talking about BF2

Yeah, the prone dev in 2142 is much bigger and longer than the prone dev in 1.5.killaer wrote:

Haven't tried it yet, but anything that reduces prome spamming should be good tbh.

Maybe that's not a bad thing, pronespamming players always seem to be fairly poor...farmerfez wrote:

QFT...they're the folk who think they are ace because they can beat a rival insta-proner, while anyone who actually moves can dance all over them...I'm Jamesey wrote:

The best bit is when you shoot them with a SRAW, and they still dive to the ground

I starting to like it, because now you gotta think as to whether you should prone or crouch. Before it was just insta prone each time, but now you gotta take into account your weapon, position, range, number of enemies, and whether or not you've been spotted.
I can't, well I still can but...
The button on my mouse is not working anymore. Is that what they were thinking about prone delay? lol
I need to think to hit 'z' key now.
As a sniper you often prone in some areas. You also prone behind sandbag walls after a small bullet spray so the target you aimed does not see you.
Anyway probably a way to bring that button to work again, I just got used to it.
BTW I relaoded the game a couple of times to see if it would work again but no luck, it's in the controls, set-up seems correct.
Not sure for now will look into it.

When it used to take me maybe 4-8 bullets to drop an enemy, now it takes about 15. My aim didn't get any worse.
If I was starting to play this game for the first time, I would probably only use prone in a surprise attack kind of fashion. As it is it breaks the whole flow of infantry for me.
