Hi all,
I don't have a lot of time today so I'll give you a quick tip.
Ever notice how some people using MG's such as support can continue firing at you even though they are in the motion of going to prone?
A few patches ago they removed the ability to bunny hop and shoot at the same time. This means if you are in the motion of going prone, or jumping or generally changing your "stance" you can not begin to fire your weapon until the "move" has been completed and you are in the final position.
To get around this, start firing while you are in the standing position and continue firing while moving to the prone position. As long as you continue firing through it you can and do shoot while in the process of changing your stance.
This is especially useful for support people who have large clips and not a lot of time to get down to prone for accuracy. Just remember, start firing BEFORE you go to switch to prone and keep firing. Otherwise, you'll have to wait until you are completely on the ground laying down before you can start shooting again. That is at least 1 second that you are vulnerable and enemy are firing on you, but you can't return fire. It has saved me numerous times while ground pounding.
That's the tip :) Not much to it, I know. Now I gotta go. Cya.
