Im not sure if im just imagining things here, maybe Im just playing MAG way too much that im seeing things. Several times I see people on the same faction as me able to go prone and travel at run speed. I seen someone in Raven from my squad jump then land on prone and slide at a long distance in one movement. Today I was defending against SVER and all of a sudden, I see a dead SVER slide past me and towards the AA battery, I tried to shoot him but because he was already dead, I couldnt stop him. The next minute hes planting a bomb at the AA battery. Theres me thinking ***** was that all about?? I see dead people!!! Has anyone else seen anything strange like this? if not could you please keep an eye out for somthing like this.

I've seen a guy sliding on his knees at full speed upstairs.
I killed him.
But I admit it looks weird

Yeah, seen that too. Once I had two coming right at me. They were prone and swimming fast! I tried shooting them and with no effect I suddenly thought I need a harpoon. Then they got "stuck" and suddenly vanished.
I've also seen the same happening in areas where you just know that they haven't been shot. Like from spawn points. First I thought it only happens when someone gets shot and they die after the lag, but people spawning and then doing the magical swim doesn't really support it. Lag me thinks.

If they was to do anything like that on purpose, then I would be happy to offer them free wheelchairs it it makes it easier for them. Dont want the cripples being handycapped on the floor.

this could be latency
animation slowness due to lag
lag switchers
or glitching
i see people run/glide to spots on there knees planting claymores which is quite funny xD

I've seen it too, reminds me of the good old days of Goldeneye on the N64! Oddjob sliding around on 1 knee. Classic.
