This is a good idea. People hate on snipers and camping but there are simple ways to counter this. A prone sniper will be decimated by dropships, grenades, missiles. It's time consuming to go prone. Movement and field of vision is severely restricted.

Now, obviously no one wants snipers rock glitching 50-0 games, or SMG wielding protoscouts dolphin diving through battles....but these are problems to be fixed and addressed by CCP and the community when they arise, and not simply be vetoed or denounced as game-breaking ideas because they can be inconvenient to some players some of the time. The fact is, prone is an essential part of modern FPS and denying players this tactic in a game which so clearly champions realism is ridiculous.

this is not a modern FPS im not getting why ppl keep saying prone is part of every modern FPS if you want a Modern FPS go play COD

This is exactly the attitude no one wants here. I've played COD, I'd play it now if I didn't think Dust514 had the potential to be the best next-gen FPS available. That said, demonizing something as basic as going prone because you don't want to play anything resembling CoD seems a little crazy. Why not get rid of ADS then? The sniper class? Probably should do away with anything that gives anyone a competitive edge.

you dont even know what your talking about your in a drop suit how will you get up . you would not go prone in E.O.D. gear hell even in call of duty you cant go prone in E.O.D. gear then look at helmets in this game how are you going to scope in prone thats why im telling you to go back to call of duty and yes we can tell from you post your from call of duty

LOL. Your reply is truly embarrasing to forum goers. You first bliethely ignored everything he said, made a ridiculous assumption that servo motor assisted powered exoskeletons are jot up to the task of getting off the ground (how does bein revived work then?), performed a massive stereotype... So on and on.

Your logic is has so many cracks in it I wonder if it isn't sand. "LOL wanting prone = COD noob!"
So.. Anything that is in CoD can't be allowed in DUST? Well, lets just get rid of ADS and snipers, and hipfiring. In fact, lets turn DUST into a text based adventure. No online multiplayer either.

Yes. The existance of CoD means that we can never include basic FPS mechanics like making your profile as small as possible. Thank you for this revelation, Aristotle.

"People are gonna camp like crazy if they do that!" and "Snipers are bad enough as it is!", I understand all that but please hear me out. When you have a tank barreling towards you and only a short rail for cover, crouching doesn't cut it. When you are repairing a vehicle while waiting for your teammate/mates to respawn and a sniper across the field is trying to pop you, crouching isn't always good enough. When your whole squad is wiped out and there is a whole squad of enemies just over the ridge, crouching doesn't keep you out of sight. When enemies are pouring towards you in an all out charge, going prone allows you to take a defensive position that can make you a smaller target. I'm not saying make it insanely exploitable like in cod, but I see no reason the soldier of the future can't get into the dirt if their cover isn't tall enough. Make it a slow animation and prevent people from shooting in the transition if you have to, but it just feels wrong to not be able to go prone. Any thoughts? what is up with all of these ppl wanting to laydown and camp? If your laying down the tank is just going to run you over.
