Sprinting with loot

  • Howdy y’all!

    Now that season 12 has dropped and we can carry loot upon our harpoon lines, I had a query.

    So we can sprint run with loot while on the harpoon line, but cannot sprint on the ground while carrying. I was wondering if Rare would consider changing this or adjusting for running on the ground, since these are now inconsistent.

    Whatcha think?

  • I have a feeling sprinting loot on the lines was an oversight, especially considering not very long ago they removed the semi exploity method to sprint loot.

    It would be nice though if you could sprint with small loot items, if not with all.

    I don't think you can make exceptions for "small" loot items, because the size of the item has no bearing on it's value or rarity. All loot should be treated the same.

    I don't think they should change being unable to sprint with loot, and I'm not sure if they should bother with applying that to the harpoon line. You could argue that having to balance and also being restricted to running in a straight line is the balance to being able to do that. You don't have to balance with normal hauling, and you can zig-zag and take unpredictable paths to avoid combat while doing it.

    You mean loot juggling ? That is still in the game.

    But yeah the harpoon line thing is probably an oversight

    I thought they patched that out a while back, unless its just a bit harder now and thats all.

  • So we can sprint run with loot while on the harpoon line

    we can? Heck I been to busy making sure I dont fall.
    xD

    but cannot sprint on the ground while carrying

    That is correct. Same reason why we can't: Fight with one hand while carrying, hold two skulls or simply drag the chest on the ground while shooting.

  • @goldsmen in some less talked of areas stuff has been tested, however afaik nothing hit retail and it is still in the game as of yesterday when i played last

    I thought it was already out, they announced it at the same time they talked about removing quick swap. I guess i just assumed it launched with that patch.
