Hopefully the TTK won't be too low. I'm sure it'll get changed before release if it is.

Also keep in mind, battles aren't going to be centered around bases in PS2, but areas of land.

Yeah, they said "more lethal" not COD level lethality.

I heard no mention of Prone while there.

Prone is not in. Found this kinda surprising. Snipers aren't the only class that would go prone. If you are in a bad spot and there is no cover, you go prone or run.

Help I'm in the future and we have forgotten how to lie on the ground! Its probably not in the game because of the animation effort involved and resulting terrain clipping issues.

Matt mentioned on reddit that prone is not in the design at this time.

I'm quite happy...it's unnecessary and would only slow the game down IMO.

From reddit Q and A:

Q: Good Morning Matt. Just a Quick Question..
Prone is it in the game?
[Prone]
Matt: No plans for prone currently.

Here fucking here.

Or it could be because it's not fun.

Meh I dont think they'll have it but I dont see the problem with prone. Yeah you'll get people lying in defensive positions but would it really be much worse than people crouching behind cover? They'll instantly attract people with explosives as they wont be able to maneuver to safety quickly.

Obviously it'd making playing as sniper more interesting, but it's being able to cover in forna and sneak up on things that sounds like more fun to me.

Don't worry, no prone.

You guys act like prone made you watch it murder your pet bunny when you were children. Presumably headshots strangled your pet puppy.

This vehemence against minor gameplay mechanics is tiring.

Stop QQing about our QQing and I'll stop QQing about you QQing about our QQ.
