when your prone, do you know where your feet are?
i've been noticing more and more feet and appendages sticking/clipping through walls and various other level implements. i really thought nothing of it until today when i happened upon JCL's feet sticking a few inches through a wall. normally somebody would have run into the flag and got camped.
i had 3 options. fight like a man and unload a handgun clip into his foot hoping to kill him. toss a few nades into where i now know hes camping OR
fight like a woman and insta-gib him via knife to foot.
im sure he had no idea what hit him until he read the TG-Legato [knife] JCL on the top
the moral of the story is, your legs are longer than most walls are thick so either scoot out a bit, or crouch instead of going prone.

Re: when your prone, do you know where your feet are?
I'd only ever use crouch if I could just find a way to make it toggle instead of being tied to the key state.
Combat is very simple, there is a first place and a second place. Second place is laying face down in the mud...sometimes, so is first place.

Toggles are the way to go... we also need to be able to come up from prone/crouch when double tapping forward to run. Originally Posted by Brennus

Amen. Crouch not being a toggle is greatly annoying. Originally Posted by Lagomorph

A similar thing happens when you think you are under cover behind a pillar. It could be your whole body sticking out to the side and your head behind the pillar, but it is hard to know which way you are pointed. Originally Posted by Legato895

Not only the legs go through. Riflepipe and kitassets will show trough walls and fences. I saved my CP at a clanmatch sunday when spotting an enemy foot trough the wall and shot å clip at the wall. He never knew what hit him

The clipping is really annoying. I try to be conscious of my feet when I'm prone but I can never be sure I'm not clipping.

This is a little utility I tried but didn't care for, but some of you will. The creator checked with Punkbuster and it's legal since it doesn't modify any game files.
It has:
1) Crouch Toggle
2) Iron Sights Toggle
3) Binds pistol to the same key as main weapon, so hitting the same key will switch between the two (I didn't see the need for this one personally.)
4) Allows Pasting into BF2 from the clipboard.
I think it does some other things, I only used it a day and decided I didn't care for it. Once you pick the check boxes for the options you want and start the program it just pops up a box in the middle of the screen with an OK button in it. Leave it alone, this means the program is running, go start BF2. When you're done playing, click that box to shut the program down.

I always tell squad members if I see them clip.

You can also use this to your advantage by going prone and backing up against a cliff or wall to reduce your exposure. Btw, has anyone looked into damage penetration? What type of obstacles are shoot-through and how much/with what weapons?
