Once you are using the back to wall technique, you should be able to throw stuff like frag grenade, flashbang,etc only by using your own arm but without turning your head to look over the corner along with other things like flash-bang. Can't merc use back to wall technique?

Other question that are not related to the topic by any chance you're going to play as an spy as if you're looking through the eye of the spy and could you put part of the interface that tells you where's the sound location is right at just in case if the sound is behind you or so?

Understand?

- No, Spies will need to peek around the corner. Else just get out of back-to-wall and shoot a grenade with your gun the normal way...

- No, Mercs can't use back-to-wall. It's a sneaky move, and an armored soldier isn't exactely sneaky :P

- Nope, Spies are third person only (and second person when he's in shoulder-view when aiming).

- Yup, I get your points :P

What the fuck are you talking about? That's 3rd person. You can't play 2nd person. If you were to shoot at the merc, then the merc would be second person.

If my heart ever heals, I will make sure it'll never break again.

No mulle, the second person is usually seen as a 'shoulder' view. It's between first and third person :P Thus second.

Completely wrong. If anything, second person would be hacking into the mercs visor to see what he sees but even then you're still in first or third person perspectives.

According to the book-definition you're right. But the shoulder-view has been referred to as second-person for a while now. I'm using that definition.

I have never seen it referred like that. Second person would be if you're playing through your enemy's eyes, and trying to shoot yourself.

To be honest the only real use of back to wall is to conceal yourself, other than that it's impractical as opposed to poking around without your back to the wall.

Once a spy is flash banging he should be able to run and yell right? so if a merc is arounda corner can't merc use flash bang too?

Other question that are related are if the merc sees a spy can he have motion track on all the time just white outlines that makes it easier incase you didnt see hte spy?

Understand?
