raise it to the damn ceiling.

please. i'm begging you.

that way we can move on and talk about other things in this forum, rather than 50 thousand "waaaaah this game is boring slow campfest even though I really don't know what camping is" threads and every other thread devolving into a strafe speed argument.

CCP, just raise the strafe speed. raise EVERYONE'S speed, moving, sprinting, strafing, reloading, shooting, driving raise it all to the ceiling.

for every suit.

don't worry about anything else, just make the game as fast as you can possibly make it.

hurry up and do that. asap.

give us the super-fast arcade shooter that everyone wants and everyone claims that you wanted to make.

I just hope that if/when they do raise the strafe speed, that the whining will cease and the rest of us can finally enjoy the game.

Yes, this is like beating a dead horse, now, two weeks into this build.

But in a game meant to out last the PS3 it deserves as much attention as it gets in these forums.

Just to reconfirm my impressions of slow left analog movement, I got over to a quiet section of the map in a scout suit. I ran, I jogged, I walked forward. Then I used the left analog stick to move my character side to side. The difference is absurd. The side to side movement is a slow lumber that not even an aging, out-of-shape fat man like me would envy.

It is just really poor in game movement. It isn't in keeping with the already slow movement your character is otherwise capable of.

If they want to keep a lid on side to side strafing and circle strafing they could make moving sideways and successive left to right movement deplete the stamina bar like running, or make it so that your character slows over time. But the base movement speed with left analog is really almost laughable. Just on a basic moving object with controller in a game level.

apparently thats how CCP wanted the game to be from day one,

but..but...but....GUNGAME.....

so when a Scout ballet-dances around a Heavy so fast that the heavy can't turn and track him....this means the heavy has no gungame? or what?

LoL scouts.
More strafe speed.

no
