DUST Search - Scout movement speed WAY too fast

Thokk Nightshade wrote:

Today I was in a match with a guy on the other side running a proto scout suit. Now, when I say moving way to fast, I'm not saying he was running like 15-20 m/s. I'm talking, they guy was like a ping pong ball. I could line up on him and within a split second he was 30 meters away, and then back to around the original location. The worst part is, it wasn't as if he was running. The guy was freaking TELEPORTING almost. I would say for the 2 or 3 minutes I was by him before I got sick of him slaughtering everyone, he was probably moving a rate of close to 40 meters/second. I saw him move probably the equivelant of 100 m/s by taking everything into account. In addition, the few shots I did land on him (within 30 meters with a Combat Rifle) did zero damage. I probably got 1 or 2 volleys that had 70-80 % hit rates and it didn't drop his shield 1 bit.

My question, is this just a glitch or is there something else happening? I doubt it was lag because he was the only one doing it, and it wasn't his system lagging because he had 25-26 kills and I think 1 or 2 deaths (both from Warbarge strikes I believe). I'm not going to go so far as to suggest he was cheating or anything, but it is frustrating when a guy is doing that, you can't hit him, and he is able to pick you off with ease.

All empires fall. We'll be watching, we'll be waiting, we'll be that spark that starts the fires of doom.

You can be those distances and back where you were as much as 15 seconds of traveling. If he spawned in on a link in a box, you can virtually free FAST move around a map but eventually you get pulled back and off you go again lol. The Organ Grinder & Co.

It was just trippy watching this guy go from point a to point b to point c back to point a in less than a second and cover like 100 meters. Then he stops and shoots me with a rail and just owns me as I'm pumping ammo into him with a CR and not doing any damage. Yeah, I accept scouts are fast. But I know what the max rates are even with mods and this was WELL beyond any of that.

Anyone going actually faster than that is glitched/bugged/lagging. Dedicated sidearm scout - Watch out for that headshot Scout community is the nuts

The speed itself is ok. If the system could handle it. Because the PS3 cannot handle proto minis with full kinkats you end up with un-hittable scouts All empires fall.
