If ever dod_forest comes round for update, then I would like to repectfully suggest modifying the low walls of the guard towers in some way, so that snipers could use them in the Prone position.

At the mo, they are too high to do this, and only an insane lunatic with a death wish would go up there and open fire from a standing position.

I havent tried this, but cant you jump up on the wall, then lie prone on top of it?

It is best the way it is. You can crouch and then poke your head up and shoot, then crouch again.

You can't use the towers after they've been blown. YOu die as soon ads you get to the top.

If you don't stand too close to the railing you will be less visible whilst standing upright.

If you really want to prone just stand on the wall like someone suggested above and hit prone - it does work.

Also, some may not know this but in those windows and such that some maps have, it is possible to get yourself proned in them by simply jumping forward and hitting prone while in mid air. If you do it right you'll land proned inside the window - perfect for the windows like those overlooking the anzio plaza. :P
