I don't think so. Those marines were prone for the sake of the cut scene I believe. I would like it if you could though....good for sniping and such.....

I think thats just for the cut scenes... it would be kinda stupid for a recon group to stand up, haha.

i think going prone should be allowed for sniping only.

Going prone would be awesome for multiplayer. I dont know what you guys are -blam!-ing about. Would it make it to hard to kill a person proning or what? Why are you guys saying it would suck?

I would love to be able to go prone. It would be great.

You should be able to go prone.. crouching is usually not the best when sniping.. it usually gets you killed.. like in Halo.. it was a -blam!- to snipe in any place that wasnt completely hidden.

i agree to, but i think i know how it could work, click to prone, and hold down when clicking to crouch, it would work very well

why do we need prone? the only thing prone would be good for is sniping in multiplayer.. however.. since there are bullet trails that makes no sense

you would be dead before you could find a safe spot to go prone in......so no...but it is a possibily

Not having a prone option is cutting the freedom in a game, imagine a game where you cant crouoch, jump or even stand rofl

yeah but going prone breads campers- and theres no way you can tell me it doesnt, the entire point of the position is to lay as still as possible with as low a profile as possible in order to not be spotted.

Going prone would give snipers a huge advantage, they could lie prone and shoot at you. If you try and shoot back with the battle rifle/sniper rifle/covie carbine you only have a head to shoot at making your life very, very difficult!
