same speed, just let us wield guns and make us deploy bipods instantly with it having even more reduced recoil +scatter, allow us to normaly shoot them while prone, you are just slower with them, the bigger the slower, and wielding delay is bigger prone and getting up should be slower when we hold a gun in our hands, also make melle skill/CQC/endurance increase crawling speed, i want to crawl up to someone with my knife and shank him

forgot to say, add a „firing position” action while prone that reduces scatter and accuracy, it should of course take longer to undeploy
and if you ever get caught by a xeno entering from off screen while prone you should be slashed by it at least once before you get up
I remember when Polio was a thing marines could do this, but alas, no longer.
but the problem with this is that runners/xenos that have pounce can’t pounce on you if you’re laying down
They can pounce on you, and stun you, while you are laying down. You just gotta click the sprite instead of the ground.
It would be pretty badass to go prone though. I already semi do that when i dual wield M39 with the armbrace.
if you play runner and cant sprite click someone who is basicly stationary, its just a skill issue
the whole point with being prone is that you will be slow and have very long reaction times so you can easily be fucked up by a lurker
Hunt Team 6 hiding prone while cloaked, sniping the abom from two screens away with the pred musket
Can’t have that.
