Heres your tinfoil hat. Write "D-U-N-C-E" on it in Sharpie, sit on a tall stool in the corner and behave like the rest of the children. Cripes.

Reserved for future trolling.

That would make a lot of sense as far as sticking to things... like when you go to sprint out of a null cannon after hacking it. it becomes like you have moe and curly on your right and left.

Be your own Judge. What game looks like more fun to you? Dust.........Or this.........

Planetside 2

Coming to PS4 this year

This is interesting stuff, Cipher. +1.

Please keep us posted on the results of your testing. A hitbox increase of 20-40% is something we scouts should take into account.

If your observations are correct, speed tanking in Uprising 1.2 would effectively handicap a Scout, right?

Thanks for explaining the speed equals hotbox enlargement , people with SMg couldn't even touch me before I rounded a corner zig zagging , maybe take a few but with a suit close to a corner doing 10.36 an jumping a hand rail only to flank an kill the guy I missed worked so well , now being seen means death!
Plus the endurance delay nerf an how badly it wears down your speed an how much it takes from one jump is insanity !
It got nerfed so bad other classes have no clue cuz they ve always been to slow to notice a difference plus scouts always have been able to jump everything it's ment too!
This has made me so frustrated that it's changed my whole play stratagy an weapon choices.
Shotgun bad, knives bad, speed bad so theirs like almost ten million sp friggen wasted.!!!
Need new suit new guns feels like starting from scratch even tho I been here as a scout since open beta.
Now it's dragonfly assault flux two faylocks joining the fu party!
I want my mini back!

To hit detection came in 1.2. Basically, if you are moving, your hitbox size increases ever so slightly. If you are sprinting it is noticeable.

Now this may have been present before the patch, but now it has been exaggerated greatly. There are gaps between objects that you can only walk through, if you sprint, your hitbox is increased and you cannot fit though anymore. It is almost certainly the case with jumping too, but it is difficult to test properly.

So far (on scouts), the increase in size is quite drastic, and the size we are at full sprint is at least bigger than an assault's, I'm developing a way to ascertain the true size,I might manage it later tonight.

I see what you did there, CCP.

EDIT - Scout suits hitbox is bigger than a stationary heavy when sprinting!

I have not tested assaults but it is likely the same case.

shouldn't scouts be sniping?

Loooooooooooooooooooool.

shouldn't scouts be sniping?

oh, maybe the snipers are heavies?

Cipher,

I'm inclined to think that your theory is valid. My 10.73 proto suit seems easier to hit in full sprint than my 8.01 advanced suit. I can't come up with any explanation for this. Would you mind detailing for us your testing methods and evidence?

Thanks,

WOW!!!!

So all the time I am trying to get out of a hotspot I am actually easier to hit - couple that with weapon's range increase - ouch.

I was just chalking it up to some really good shots catching me in the back.

Great work Spec, though as Shotty said if you publish your methods you can gain wider support - Hope all of this can be addressed soon so we can get back to being true thorns in the enemy's side.
