Hey guys, yesterday I read the league rules (ey Master ;D?) and especially the rules on crouching were different from what I thought. Personally I thought crouching was NEVER allowed, in any case.
The league rules however say:
"Crouching humans -v- Pulse rifle fire**
(...)
** Crouching in open ground as a human when another human player using a Pulse Rifle fires at you."
If I'm right, this means that crouching is ONLY prohibited when the OTHER player is using a pulse rifle and is shooting at you. For example, in case of the MP3 match, we wouldn't have broken the rules if we would have crouched when the smartgunner would've been shooting at us.
Do I read this right or what?

..ehh...not pulse vs pulse, in my eyes, they mean, not crouching as a HUMAN when fired at with a Pulserifle... even if u are a snipe or a Minigunner  ... bit unobvious |

no the rule is only for pulse vs pulse, because if u are a sniper fighting a croucher evrey shot kills so it doesnt matter but if u have pulse and u want to hit head its impossible because the head model sinks into the breast of the whole model and cant be hit then.

thats what i meant, if u are fired at with a pulse rifle, u have to stand, if it is Pulse vs pulse, both will have to stand

However I've always had my doubts on crouching as an exploit.. I can live with that rule ;D;D..
Also I think we shouldn't tell this around. We could use it in our advantage.

I don't see what so exploiting about it. I mean, you can still kill someone with one bullet when that person is crouching, it's just a lot harder. But isn't headshooting one in real life not as well a lot harder then doing the same thing to a standing person? I would say so.. |

This thread can be summarized into 2 words: fuck the league(and "the" isn't a real word, smartass.)

well since u are US and arent in the league really i would say u can crouch whenever u like. BUT because we may need a good sniper sometime even for EU team i would say u shall reduce it to a minimum. The rule says that u arent allowed to crouch in Pulse v Pulse fights but i can see moaning about that if u do it too often  so try to reduce it. |

As you know crouching is able to stop head shot with such weapons as Pulse and pistol so it is unfair on the pulser if you crouch. so everytime i see you crouch ill just send a nade your way  |
