the damn spitfires hit you even when crouch walking! They shouldnt be allowed to do that, only if there is a MST (Motion Sensor Thing) nearby.

FLB? = Fucking Load Bullshit?

which = wish

Sorry, couldn't help it.

I know, you're even wrong about spitfires and crouch walking though I doubt that was a simple typo.

actually this has happened to me.

Seriously? I honestly can't make it happen. I have been on a crusade for the past 3 weeks trying to get fragged by spitfires while crouchwalking. Yesterday I did two laps through an Interlink's courtyard that was festooned with motion sensors and spitfires, not one of them shot at me until I got bored and tried to surge to one of the side doors.

was there an uninterupeted link to the base from an ILF Jagd, or are you just lieing through your teeth?

Realy, none the deployables should not be able to detect crouch-walking infiltrators, which they do. However, I do believe they stealth adjusted the spitfires so that they only target crouch-walkers when said soldier is also being detected by an motion sensor.

Still, the thing is called a fucking "Motion sensor alarm", so it should be based on motion. The only thing and ILF shoudl do to deployables is MAYBE increase their detection range, not what detect.

typically this happens to me after a flashy move, like bailing from a skeeter. sometimes it happens when a skeeter flies over head. honestly though, it seems random.

/edit/ hey where's my sig??

Hadn't played my infil in forever, so I logged him on hoping that there was some stealth loving for the infil that made it so the interlink didn't rape infils any more. Jagd's post gave me hope. I took a tower surrounded by deployables which didn't have a direct link to an Interlink Facility, crouch walking as usual a great distance because some really good combat engineers set up the defense. I was only able to hold the tower for about 5 minutes, got killed and the tower switched sides. I spawned at a nearby AMS, headed for the tower and started crouch walking from the base of the hill it was on. As I crested the hill, crouch walking the whole time, spitfires opened fire and dropped me quickly. I checked my map and sure enough the VS had just capped an Interlink Facility and it was in the lattice.
I wasn't on any sort of crusade, but I certainly had no problem duplicating what I'd already seen too many times.
