Marine Sprint

Very immersive idea for balancing sprint. Should disable mouse look when sprinting - fits right in with UWE's design style and i think will not only balance sprinting, but add additional skill to sprinting.

    Please also include motion blurring and FOV zoomout so I can make racing car noises over voice comms more often than I already do.

    Please also include damage when careening into walls.

    Onos has charge, Fade has Blink, Skulk has leap and walljumping, gourges have drifting, lerk has gliding.

    Every single alien except gourge can go insanely fast to get where they need to go and get out of any sticky situation.
    Giving marines the passive ability to sprint would be good for them.

    Sprint is an ability that's possible even in real life. Don't be an idiot and connect it to an awful game like GoW.

    Not liking the idea of no free-look while sprinting... makes me an idiot? Please explain.

    'Course, not getting that it's a joke in the first place might be grounds for that...

    this would force marines to choose only to push the sprint button in strategic locations and encourages creative play +1

    Removed mouse movement, want to see respiration used more often.

    Sprinting should only be unlocked once you buy a pair of pumps from the armoury. This could also create new revenue streams through product placement - why not set up a deal with Nike?

    To balance the no mouse look, we just need to give marines a spin dash:

    I like this idea! If Onos cannot turn while charging, it makes little sense that Marines can "sprint" and in circles, as if they're world class ballerinas!

    Add Gorge Belly slide to Marines to replace sprint when on infestation.
