Hm... I played my first one and a half hour last night and didn`t notice anything with the movement, but maybe thats because i use the carbine now a days to improve my lousy carbine stat. I don`t have to prone to be accurate so...

Anyway, i liked the patch, the only patch that i`m not sorry for downloading. Played some jailbate, had fun, owned as hell xept from one round against some wicked support dude who was much better than me... I like the infantry only too.


But still:

I also think I'm going to go back to 1.12, back to the patch that the game was best in.
Word Ben>You!

Conclusion:
I have 1000h+ and i`m happy with the patch.
(Maybe because i expected so much worce, it`s EA after all)

And: Why the hell did they nerfe the c4 throwing again?

Well, patch 1.4 needs some adaptation time.
My stats suck, except as sniper, but with 1.4 I was killed even more then usual <huh>
When I play support class to provide ammo for the teammates and I see an enemy, I normally drop down, take my shot, get up again and seek cover before they can return fire. Won't work that way anymore; The delay got me killed every time.
I hate bunnyhoppers/dolphin divers so I have never done that, but sure is that 1.4 got rid off these extremes, unfortunately adding some annoyances too. Forcing to tweak my strategy/gameplay.

lol bunch of wankers..lmfao...Anyway, I don't have any problems going prone and killing someone.  The only people crying are the peeps who have gotten used to being able to prone spam all day long.  Now that you can't do it anymore(or at least it is harder), these "players" don't know what to do.  Here's a thought.  Go out and learn some new tactics instead of relying on jumping up and down like a retard just to get a kill.  A guy in my squad said it best, "I'm not sure why people need a gimmick just to kill someone."

C4 is a good tool for ambushing...
AA didn't suck, you had to be skilled to use it. + The F-35B is hard to use for many people
Prone Jumping - Sure. But it's too easy to kill a prone jumper. Makes for interesting shank fights

For one I've had this game since the beginning and I think it takes no skill bunny hopping, dolphin diving, etc. So Souljar i never used that tactic to get lame points.

In terms of people tank whoring, etc. The fundamental thing added to 1.4 is an infantry only map (which I love). So if you dont like getting whored by a vehicle, go to a server that utilises 1.4 and play infantry only.

In terms of the patch sucking, it's only been a day and already people whining, complaining, etc. I agree with the whole it's just a game, if a game gets to a point where it stresses you out, or bothers you that much, I'm sorry Sarge lol. But a game is just a game, it's fun etc. If you were to play true infantry games, you'd be playing squad action with 5 other people, so you don't have to worry about being slow or finding cover,  because your squad members are covering you.

Give the patch a few days, before you're cursing at it to go to hell, blah blah. And seriously if all you people are just as stressed at him or just as pissed off about a game, there are plenty of other games to play.

Ever thought that many times YOU are the guy coming around the corner where someone is laying on the ground unable to get up and run away, Sarge?

That's an easy kill for you then.
And those kills should make up for the deaths caused by this... so balance is still there.

You just need to remember that you're not only on the receiving side. There is no conspiracy against you... get over it.

Exactly, just adapt.  I think its a good patch.  Jalalabad is a fun map.  I didn't notice a significant difference in game play.  Let's all stop complaining and just play.  Those with skills will adapt and still own, those without need more practice.  But whining about the chnages won't matter, no one is listening.

I understand where your comeing from Sarge, but sadly there isnt much yourself nor I can do about this. You can either try to adapt to it and use prone more wisely, or crouch instead of proneing. Once again your topic like many others appears to concentrate on one thing and thats the ability to prone/stand up at a rapid pace aka prone spam. For someone to base an entire patch upon this alone is well irashional.

CQC combat has been ruined even more by:

-Your inability to quickly pop up and get down behind cover. (nades were the way to go for this, but still people tried to shoot you and died, which made them complain.)
-Your inability to quickly go back round a corner if your attack goes wrong. (the equivalent of strafing around a corner in CS)
-Your ability to quickly reposition yourself.
I cannot agree with you Sarge, maybe the first time.

Go for a practice and you'll will see that prone spamming, clipping and dolphin diving is still alive.

Have fun with your game, I might do a bit more jet whoring and shoot down the skillless fucks created by 1.2. in the meantime, I'm going back to CS:S untill something decent comes out.

Bye.
Still here with another whiny thread about how they ruined the game?

If you really were the über-pwnerer you always claim to be you would still pwn all those "skillless fucks",even with the changes in 1.4.

You forget that the enemy is now as slow and immobile as yourself aswell,so both sides have to adapt to this.

If you just can't adapt because you "CS-ed" your brains out over the years and can't play without jumping and proning like a mix of a guy on speed and a mexican jumping bean - go back to CS and quit whining about BF2,you get pwned with claymores on Warlord anyway ( ).....

Wow I never knew a 0.3 second added delay on unproning makes the game unfun. Last time I checked it was fun, played as assualt, spec ops, support and sniper, no great difference noticed. The only thing I saw changed was you cannot shoot in the eight of a seconf it takes to go from prone to crouching, and I guess because of that the game is screwed up.

Just a tiny 0.3 second delay added makes SargeV1.4 post multiple,elaborate threads about "removal of quick movement".

Sarge, everything you say that restricts you also restricts your enemy.  The play is still balanced, you just need to find what it takes to beat the other guy. This patch makes us rely heavily on accuracy now rather than movement.

Just played an inf scrim today, it was my first experience with the 1.4 patch, and it plays slow... there's just no chance to escape from more than 1 guy, grenades nail you fast because you can't get away fast enough, and Sarge, you're completely right.

I agree with Sarge, the patch has ruined infantry combat, not because you can't prone spam (i didn't like to do that anyways) but because its too slow paced.  Turn corner, shoot 1 guy, die, respawn, turn corner, shoot one guy, die, respawn, etc.  There's not much skill left in infantry anymore.

I dont know, I dont think the slower movements have taken anything from the game . As long as your paying attention you can get away, I was able to shoot to my feet and still evade 2 grenades tossed at me yesterday.

Hmmm, I just got about 15 kills in the space of a few minutes using PKM before being perma-banned for "Unknown" reasons.  It doesn't bother me in the slightest bit, don't see what the fuss is about.
