prone is good for acurracy but since its not like WWII games where the aimer moves and it increases the pip and and crap its really not all that nessisary unless you have the SR

If they do put it, I say only with SR... and I have this idea of a squad automitic weapon with a bipod that you could set down... anyway I won't get into that. The only problem is that its unrealistic how you would only go prone with the SR, so it'd be weird (is there something physically stopping the chief from going prone with a smg?). Also, you shouldn't be able to go prone while dual wielding for sure if they do put it (if). But proning just doesn't seem to be Halo's "style," well, thats just my opinion on the matter.

Thx for the complement.
Look at pg.11 of the "500 things" thread, I described my idea in a bit more detail if your curious to know more about it.

if there's prone, then many players are going to prone as soon as they see the enemy. it happens in way too many videogames with prone. it gets annoying.

only with sniper rifle so snipers become more deadly but only if it has a few drawbacks like you can't move from side to side at all and you look from side to side slower it makes them a small target but an easy to hit target

yeah i got an idea like if ur in prone u move slow and have
very bad manuvrability, but u can use a SR, carbine, or BR in prone.
it also increases accuracy with the BR and carbine.
