Movement too slow

[Ford_Prefect]

Now I want to start by saying that I love the realism that was put into the game, however, when I move around it feels like I'm moving too slow,

when I run forward it's like wading through hip deep mud. I dont mean sprinting, I noticed in the control section that I can set up a key for to walk, so I assume that the character is running the entire time.

You can really feel the speed difference when you go from playing "other" WWII games to this one,

The player is jogging all the time, not running.
Slight but essential difference.
I suggest you sprint more often

 

[Wolfsglen]

The character is "jogging" by default when you move, not sprinting (seperate key) or walking (also seperate).

Its not like other games for a reason Perhaps they are the ones doing it wrong by having people move too fast, not RO moving too slow

But either way, the speed is the way it is by intent and a lot more realistic than some WW2 arcadey shooters ive played where you seem to move at Jesse Owens sprintspeed by default - just sometimes takes a while to get used to it.

You'll get used to it, no worries

I suggest he play(s) DOD:S where player move's like an motorcycle.

 

[D3terioNation]

I actually find it refreashing and realistic, if you want to see where im coming from next time your walking cross country you throw on big boots winter clothes and a backpack not to mention a gun and amunition you'll find you dont move too quickly, its there to discourage unrealistic run and tactics dont worry you'll get used to it.

Give it some time and it will feel just fine. It felt slow to me at frist too but after a bit it just felt right. I dont want my players running around at 2x the speed of an olympic sprinter .

 

[Carazor]

IMO, the speed is much better than other WWII games (but then again, they weren't really going for realism, were they...) Speaking from personal experience, I can't run regularly (or at least, not for as long) when I'm carrying 20 ~ 40+ pounds of stuff.

Maybe I'm just weak, but meh.

 

[TweedleDee]

the movement speed is one of the most realistic features in my opinion. i was so glad that no one was zipping around like lightning on crack, as in dod:s, in this game. if u want to go faster go play counter strike, dod:s, doom 3 , other non-realistic games.

 

[Rabid]

I think the stamina recovery rate could do with being a little faster when resting (crouched, not moving, etc) but the movement rate overall seems just about right.

 

[Zennousha]

The rate of movement is far more realistic than any other game if you ask me. In addition to that, you want to play 3.3? Try the pace in THAT game.

 

[[CoFR]BooBoo]

No Olympic sprinters? Oh, my...

Well, I do WWII reenactments, SO yes I KNOW what it is like to wear the gear and run around all day.

The jogging is to slow in the game, it isnt "realistic". soldiers can jog faster than they do in the game.

I not saying make the guys run as fast as they do in DoD, just make them jog alittle faster then they do now.

I DO like the game, I just played it for 2 hours, I just wish it didnt feel like wading through mud when I jog.

And Yes I do Sprint whenever possible.

 

[takadi]

well you heard the guy...he actually WORE the gear...

so an increase in sprint and jog speed...no biggie...

Difference being, you run around for one day, go home, eat a good meal, sleep in a bed, mabey watch some T.V... A typical WW2 ostfront day would be: scrounge for a tiny bit of food, oh crap didnt find any...... have no water, to much friggin stuff to pack around, soles of my boots are worn out... no place to sleep, friends dying every day.. you know, it just seems a bit harder for the actual soldier...

 

[Zennousha]

Yup, nothing like running purely on the fact that any moment you and everyone around you could be killed. These guys were lucky to get sleep period.

Well, they would keep moving to prevent from, oh I dont know, DYING!

you'd be surprised at what those guys did under such pressure.

For example:

On Omaha beach, Getting to shore was very straining. Alot of guys were worn out when they reached the beach. and yet, we took the beach.

The Rangers that were at Point Du Hoc had to clime the cliffs, no simple feat, exhausted when they reached the top, they still had enough strength to push the Germans back.

Yea I know my examples are of Americans, but the Germans recieved just as well training, and they were in just as good shape as the Americans.

 

[takadi]

Well you heard the man! Quicker running and sprinting!

Then again, the bulk of the defenders of the Normandy beaches were not Germany's finest, and in many cases, not even Germans . Czechs, Poles, Russians pressed in to German service. Not professional soldiers.
