For the last time, it's called PRONE not lay down.

Ok Ok Prone!

Let's get it own!

Yeah I think the prone position would be a hard target
BUT

A well tossed Grenade can make it easy,
even if you knew it was there could you really get back up and run that fast?!?!?

Sounds balanced to me.

Well almost every position has advantages and disadvantages, i think you would be able to hide better!

A decent sniper can already exert a god-like control over a map already. Are you seriously suggesting he should also be allowed to present 15% of the target while he does it as well?

Well that is a simple problem to fix, remove aim assist or perhaps even dull it down.

Then instead of that "God-like" control it will simply be yet another player who hopefully takes the time to practice aiming instead of the game doing it for them.

Well it's just another add on i think would be good, and u dont have to use it, u do have a choice! Pick what you want, i think it would make the game more interesting!!!

If we are what we eat, then oh my God, we're cannibals.

That would be AWESOME!!! My friend and I have talked about this during Health class, and we concluded that this feature, going PRONE, would be sweet. Just think about it, DREADNAUT on COAGULATION, going prone with a sniper ifle. Plus two shotgun-wielding guards to make sure that you won't die.

Some people will disagree with that idea, but I believe that going prone, with or without a gilly-suit, would be awesome.

I would love it if this idea was put into action in Halo 3.

Using the prone position would change Halo for the worse. By doing this, Halo would turn too much into a stealth game like Ghost Recon or Rainbow Six. Halo is a run, jump, shoot like crazy, and hope u killed a few people in the process. As said before, its hard enough to kill a decent sniper without them being barely visible and this would make people's jobs alot harder.

A Ghilly suit? Your going over the edge.. But really, Prone would be stupid.

really, if there was prone, then there would be camping problems, kids (and adults alike) would -blam!- like crazy and would get bungie to work that much harder to release an update to fix it. also MC can already take 2 sniper bullets to the chest before dying, and someone already said that halo is ment as a fast pace game, quick shoot-em-up then die and start over again. and then we would get all the stupid cs ppl playing halo and then it would get really stupid. jkjk, anyways it is an idea that bungie threw in the trash bin since before halo 1 was even made cause they would have had it sinc the beginning.

buuuuut, if you want the marines who have snipers to prone, thats a different story, because they NEED the protection when sniping, cause all sniper marines die in 2 mins of shooting (during heroic or legendary) and then, ONLY THEN, proning would be a real help.

Sounds good to me. You would still be pretty vulnerable like that, especially given the fast paced gameplay. As long as there is a trade off, it could work.

Unless I'm playing as Linda and I have to cover someone else while they are doing some battling, I do not want to be prone.
The MC isn't the kind of guy to just lay down, rifle or not.
