During my stint in the U.S. Army Infantry, I almost never fired my weapon standing, kneeling sometimes, but almost all the time in the prone. From the prone (if you're not reacting quickly to contact) you can always find something to support your weapon (I'm talking M16's and M203's people, not 9 millimeter pistols!, even resting on the magazine (what?? resting on your weapon's magazine? but that's cheating!. I know there isn't anything like that in OFP, and personally I don't really care. The game is extremely fun, and to goddamn addicting. One of these days I will go to therapy for my addiction....one of these days....maybe after I complete Resistance....maybe..

I'm new here, but have been reading this forum constantly for about a month. Figured I would start posting. Anyhoo... On the campaign mission where you start out lost in the woods, I maneuvered my way to a small villa southeast of the starting point. Advancing cautiously I noticed one of those small Euro cars by one of the houses. Quickly I jumped in the thing (I know, not very soldierly, but I was desperate! and put the pedal to the metal onwards toward the newly designated pickup point. As I crested that first hill, a Russian patrol was right on the other side! Before either of us could react, I did a massive hit and run on three soldiers!! It was an insane, chaotic, yet extremely funny moment because it totally surprised me. Somehow, I shot past a T-80 that seemed to be just as surprised at my appearance as I was by his and took off down the road getting slightly singed from one of his misplaced shots in my backside. I was never bothered by the Hokum or Hind that was patrolling the skies either which I thought was weird because it was a definite problem in the beginning. I eventually took the car offroad where it began to bog down, so I ditched it and did an all out run toward the pickup zone about 200 meters away. Panting and out of breath, I eventually made it without another single shot coming my way.
