The problem isn't strafe speed, it's target tracking speed and hit registry. The rapid movement speed of DUST is one of its strengths, not a weakness.
As it is now, I don't personally have a problem tracking opponents that jump with the aid of myofibril stimulants. The ones who are hardest to hit have sacrificed most or all of their tank for that mobility, and typically die in under half a clip of any rifle, a single charge shot with the scrambler.

Actually it's quite different...but nice try. Running back and forth from the left to the right (or vise versa) is not the same as a jump. They are two completely different actions. What gives a merc the ability to jump higher is the fact that when a person jumps they tend to bend their knees which gives them an extra boost of power and they are able to jump higher than if they had kept their knees straight. Which is basically what clone d is talking about, but seriously who the hell goes around jumping without bending their knees? I ask you all to perform this experiment at home and see which one is the quicker action: a jump, or running side to side.

but with jumping you don't decide how high you go and when you go back down, it is constant. with strafing you can decide how far your strafe and your strafing pattern can change.

fix the tracking speed

Looks like you found the answer yourself.

Although in my own opinion they do not need to fix tracking speed because that's your job to be able to track a merc properly. Now please change the title of this thread and stop suggesting a jump nerf because then I'll start a thread on a strafe nerf which you exploit all the time (nice kills yesterday, you got me but you did it with your incredibly fast strafing that I could not track)

You have a good point, Viktor. The Jump mechanic we have now is severely limited compared to other modern shooters. Myofibril stimulants are just a bandage fashioned to address a serious game design oversight. We should be able to better control jump trajectory. But who is going to work on that? If I understand correctly, there is one singular person engineering, testing, and implementing game elements right now. If that is the case, critical performance issues are always going to take a back seat to profit driven "content".

In CQC strafing is still OP, and you obviously know this. I think the problem you are having is that you are coming against jumpers with high damage weapons which no amount of strafing will get you out of the situation, and you are dying to this which is making you upset and has led to the creation of this thread.

I can track them well with 65 Y sens.

Sensitivity around 100 is innacurate as hell for controller.

slow-mo jumps would look weird.
