Prone
« on: May 28, 2016, 05:03:40 am »
It's a common knowledge that you can stand up from prone by switching the direction you're facing, and I think this is good and nothing is wrong with it.

This might be just me, but it's annoyed me to no end when you try to prone in the direction opposite of what you're facing, you press prone once to executed the manuever and you see your soldier do the prone animation in the expected direction, and ended up still standing because you press prone 1 or 2 frames before your cursor switch side...

It would be nice if the game would add a tiny amount of time-delay (say, 5 frames) at the start of the animations, or wait until prone animation finished, before you can switch side to stand up.

I doubt any one cares or shares my frustrations though... So meh.  [retard]

Owned by player with high ping = Blame the ping.
Keep getting owned when playing on the other side of the world and got high ping = Blame the ping.

Make sense...

I think any sort of delay or forcing the prone/unprone animation to finish could possibly break all the movement techniques which relying on insta-prones and prone canceling.

Improve your technique till it (almost) never happens.

I'll try to fap faster the next time i do it; should help to increase my swiping speed.  :P

Anyway... Did anyone ever asked for a 'Jump' button to cancel the prone (and jump up if you keep holding the key like normal) ...?  ???  I don't see any bad things that could come out from this, only more convenience and better flow.
