I think it would be cool if it was possible to have a short (like 5 seconds) sprint ability.
And it could take like 15-25 seconds to regain your breath.

Its impossible to outrun and strafe snipers. But running would make it was funner.

What do you guys think?

Sounded like a cool idea until you said "make it was funner".

You shouldn't have problems with snipers if you know how to maneuver and shelter yourself.

I think sprinting should be involved, but youre unable to shoot (can still throw grenades!) but only 7 seconds or so, and about 150% of the normal speed. 20 seconds to regain the ability.

ok 5 sc. sprint! your gun is unable to be shot while runing and you have a 15 econd wait for full stamina back

yes sprinting would make the gameplay more interactive, be great for dodging attacks

How about since 7 seconds wouldn't do it plus,you haft wait 20 seconds to regain it how about make it 25 but you could stop sprinting at any second until it reached 25 now when we sprint for 25 second non-stop the players speed will be same as the speed of walking for 25 second like let's say you stopped sprinting for 10 sec. your speed will slow a bit but you will regain your stamina that you wasted for another 10 sec and so on and so on until it reached 25 sec. but that don't mean that you can't sprint again when you stop sprinting. you can still sprint until you lose all your stamina. IMO

I think sprinting is a bad Idea.

It would encourage run-and-gun gameplay that you see in games like Call of Duty, and would negate the stalemate/fortress wars setting this game is based on

I take my opinion back after reading Muffinman's comment. No to the sprint!

@Muffin

TRUE DAT

I'm with Muffin here. Sprinting is just not AoS.

I would say no if it was all the ideas stated above: You sprint for like 3 feet and your all the sudden tired as fuck.

the ace of spades soldier is already sprinting, holding shift just makes him walk

@Priok: More or less, yes. I don't know what the exact numbers are, but the foot soldiers are already moving at a reasonable "top speed" for a fully-equipped infantryman.

not sprinting, maybe a roll or sidestep would be good for dodging.

bad company 2 have good sprinting, when you are sprinting you can throw grenades only and you must slow down to use other weapons

AoS already has run and gun, I do it all the time but people of this community want it to have nothing, nothing at all that has to do with CoD but if has something to do with Battlefield then yes it is okay to have, which makes me a little mad, Sprinting could be great, it has been suggested many times before but it always gets shotdown so...

Yes,I agree with Deadshot here.CoD and BF is a same game but it's rules are just different in CoD if you got better guns and better perks your completely unstoppable to other players that has low levels than you.While BF is all about tactics and think before you make your move and what also is different between BF and CoD is their fan-base it's really not a bad thing on hating CoD or playing it.Yes,I got to admit that almost people who plays CoD are complete Douche bags but not all of them.Even Halo.Why hating stuffs that CoD has in it's game? but when it comes to BF almost everyone agrees. BF and CoD are almost the same game if you ask me.

na sprinting aint for aos.

Good god no, sprinting should never have been invented in the first place. Everybody runs, all the time. That's how it used to be. Nowadays to run you not only have to sacrifice your ability to fire, but you also get asthma after about 5 seconds and have to slow right down. I doubt a single soldier alive who is in an army today would be allowed to serve if he could only sprint for five bloody seconds.

Worst of all though, and this is one of the key reasons why I stopped playing Bad Company 2, is because when sprinting you can't even fucking sidestep! What sort of person can't dodge or zigzag while running?

It is by far one of the most braindead features that have ever made it into the mainstream, and is one of the main causes for multiplayer gaming being so camper friendly. To move fast at all you have to sprint, so most movement is slower- perfect for snipers. In the likes of Unreal Tournament a camper wouldn't survive two minutes, but current shooters create an environment where those that sit tight and camp choke points absolutely thrive.

And now we have Ace of Spades, which for once is a shooter that dares to be different. At one stage you could even headshot someone at range with the rifle while strafing if your skill was up to it. Now it's got a firing cone, and you actually want it to have sprinting as well?

No. Keep that gameflow destroying gameplay cancer away from this indie gem.

Well, I'd say yes but seeing as AoS is an indie game like Beret mentioned above...

Nah. If AoS wants to be different then I fully support it.

@Beret: Look on the bright side, 0.55 will have the old Rifle accuracy back on the first shot. All subsequent shots will have spread.

If CoD didn't exist, people woudn't say sprinting is to much like 'CoD'.
Let's take CoD out of this, we want sprinting or not?!

The only thing I actually want is prone, it is a real world tactic, and allows fir a player to be well hidden and harder to get shot rushing a enemy.
Sprinting....if AoS is aiming for realistic gameplay, yes, as a arcade game, no.

@Winston I don't think the problem is with COD having sprint. BFBC2 has sprint, so does medal of honor, so does Arma 2:OA. We just want to see AoS be an original and unique game. But, still, COD has some idiotic weapons and whatnot to it, and we simply don't want that crap implemented.

It already is a run and gun I do it everyday if you don't run and gun on ace of spades you prob Hide and Snipe/also known as camping. If you can't run and gun on AoS you are Pussy.

There's nothing wrong with sniping in itself, but if you spawn camp (Which I don't do), yeah, it's pretty cheap. But I don't sit in the same place over and over, I try to find different areas to snipe from. Somebody could easily find you out, and kill you if you stay in one place all the time, so I try not to. Running and gunning isn't really something I like to do, but I can. Snipers are a part of this game. Just because some dude. get caught out in the open doesn't mean that the sniper sucks. It's that guy's fault for just waltzing around in the open with no cover.

maybe 8)

Nope.

Hmmm. If it's done right.

5 seconds, is a lot, i'd rather go for 3 :P
