BATTOUSAI THE MANSLAYER Robbing The Hood Public Disorder. 13	Posted - 2013.12.27 16:56:00 - [1] - Quote I recall reading in a thread that running with nova knives makes you run faster. I have noticed this effect on my logi. When I have the needle in hand I seem to be running faster. Can anyone confirm this or is this just some kind of optical illusion because there isn't a gun blocking a large amount of the screen? Thanks in advance

Run towards an Objective and notice the distance in metres, switch equipment. The rate at which the distance diminishes does not change as far as i have noticed. KRRROOOOOOM
Jadek Menaheim Xer Cloud Consortium 1444	Posted - 2013.12.27 17:03:00 - [3] - Quote It's a pretty good illusion at that. [sig=hex.dec]4d7920313333372048617830727a2078706c6f747a20522058706f7364206259206c766c2035204330646562386b727a[/sig]

BATTOUSAI THE MANSLAYER Robbing The Hood Public Disorder. 13	Posted - 2013.12.27 17:44:00 - [6] - Quote I'm testing this when I get home
Sarducar Kahn xCosmic Voidx Partners of Industrial Service and Salvage 170	Posted - 2013.12.27 17:47:00 - [7] - Quote They give you an exact stat for speed, why would they let it be changed by the equipment you are holding? Don't drink 'n drive kids. (That's my job)
Dustbunny Durrr ReD or DeaD 18	Posted - 2013.12.27 20:07:00 - [8] - Quote Honestly its pretty easy to test. Find a long range target between two identical suits (and identical speed skills) and race. I've found nova knives and drop pads to be very fast, sidearms to be a bit slower than them, and primary weapons to be slower still. To anyone who has played counterstrike in the years of past, you already know to run with your knife out.

Broonfondle Majikthies Seykal Expeditionary Group Minmatar Republic 630	Posted - 2013.12.27 20:19:00 - [10] - Quote Didn't your mother ever tell you not to run with knives!? "...where Bylothgar the Ill-postured was made King of the People With No Name But Decent Footwear"
Fire of Prometheus DUST University Ivy League 2427	Posted - 2013.12.27 20:20:00 - [11] - Quote I've noticed this too but with my commando suit. My commando runs faster (or appears to at least) when he's got a duvolle out than when he's running with his kaalakiota RR Proud member of the Commndo 6 <3 Commando AK.0
Maken Tosch DUST University Ivy League 6135	Posted - 2013.12.27 20:23:00 - [12] - Quote This was never confirmed. It's just an optical illusion created by the field of vision being adjusted while holding the knives. OK, CCP. When are knives finally going to be improved? *CLOSED BETA VETERAN SINCE REPLICATION BUILD*
Mithridates VI Imperfects Negative-Feedback 2335	Posted - 2013.12.27 20:30:00 - [13] - Quote Last time I tested this (months ago) my running animation/sway/bounce was faster but my speed across the ground was the same. Please refrain from utilizing such inflammatory sarcasm in the future. GÇö CCP Eterne
Joel II X Dah Gods O Bacon 380	Posted - 2013.12.27 20:30:00 - [14] - Quote You run faster if you switch from sniper to any sidearm or equipment. Same with Plasma Cannon and Swarmies. Not sure about the rest.
Rynoceros Rise Of Old Dudes 1853	Posted - 2013.12.27 20:40:00 - [15] - Quote My Heavy is noticeably faster with a Light Weapon, and even a smidge faster with a sidearm. It's no illusion. Alyssa Milano.
OZAROW WarRavens League of Infamy 1154	Posted - 2013.12.27 20:43:00 - [16] - Quote You run even faster if you flip weapons because you have nothing in your hands
One Eyed King Eyniletti Rangers Minmatar Republic 102	Posted - 2013.12.27 21:04:00 - [17] - Quote Yet, no matter if you have knives equipped and a red carries a larger weapon, they can always go the same speed backwards that you can forwards. I still don't understand that logic. Nova knifing scout masochist. I would be a sadist, but CCP won't let me.

Edit: And why wouldn't they tell us that it happens? Because they are CCP. If I've gathered anything from the 1.7 update(any update for that matter) It's that what CCP states, is not necessarily what they deliver. I have noticed this since I have been playing Dust. Personally I feel like I move faster, if I do or not, I have no clue. It is pretty obvious, so if it is an illusion, it's a pretty damn good one.
APX147 Amarr Templars Amarr Empire 19	Posted - 2013.12.27 21:10:00 - [19] - Quote this is one of the reasons I run with my Nova knives all the time in my Mimitar Scout suit. Can-¦t do without them. And yes. They make you go faster.
mollerz Minja Scouts 1465	Posted - 2013.12.27 21:12:00 - [20] - Quote running and attacking with knives is all kinds of fuk'd up right at the moment. running with knives seems to make you faster, but it definitely makes you more mobile and gives you better vision for taking people down at a sprint. You gotta hustle if you wanna make a dolla

There-¦s quite a difference between the AR & Nova when you run in a Scout suit.
mollerz Minja Scouts 1465	Posted - 2013.12.27 21:19:00 - [22] - Quote It seems obvious to me you do run faster. When everyone is initially running to hack objectives, and you are running just behind an assault or two at their max speeds and switch from a light or even a side weapon to knives, you know you are going faster. You immediately begin overtaking them at a faster rate. You gotta hustle if you wanna make a dolla
ZiwZih Seraphim Initiative.. 317	Posted - 2013.12.27 21:46:00 - [23] - Quote Around a year ago I tested and posted it; with stopwatch on 50 and 100m. The difference was within 0.05 second in 10 measurements -- so no difference beside animation. Someone suggested it was turning speed that was affected, but that (turning speed limit) was removed. Maybe something changed since Uprising, a test wont hurt. ZEN 514
DeadlyAztec11 Ostrakon Agency Gallente Federation 2981	Posted - 2013.12.27 22:05:00 - [24] - Quote You don't run faster; you only turn faster. It looks like you rum faster because your model moves his hands more, but the illusion is also present on the Sniper Rifle which appears to run very fast when it does not.
