INF behind berms

[bronco69]

happened lately alot that an enemy infantry behind a berm was hiding from me. i could only see the top part of his helmet. but then he sniped me from that position without moving.

is it possible that the "eyes/rifle" are higher than you/i see them ?

i think i heard something like this some time ago. like if they had eyes in their helmet

anyone experienced same ??

will do some testing later on on training or BETA

This is common since I can remember even before 1.33.

Happens alot on live server too.

Yes, 1.33 (if not before) KFS/TOTO publishing a couple of screenshots - I can't find them - to barracks showing the what-you-see / what-I-see difference.

You can hide behind many objects (not just berms) and shoot over them, whilst appearing invisible in 3rd person. Roof tops is another good example ...

It's very hard to actually be invisible. Your helmet is usually showing. There are trade offs all over the place (legs sticking through a wall and you got shot?). This one trades that IRL I have cover and concealment that can be expressed in the game environment. The game just doesn't have the freedom of movement for you to peek over things.

I can adjust this if there are some cases that seem too extreme. Please provide screen shots.
