Double tap W for sprint

Little tiny wee suggestion.

Not much of a deal but personally I d see much more easy for my clumsy fingers to sprint a marine by double tapping W and the leaving it pressed until released or end of sprint allowance.

This way I could map the Shift key for marine crouch/silence move, same key I use for skulk slow/silent move.

    What I did was map sprint to a side button on my mouse. Works wonders!

    I tend to think of double tapping a movement key to be a dodge ability.

    I'm going to plug the idea into this thread: Doubletap back as marine to jump back a foot or two? Or even sideways would be pretty neat. With a suitably long cooldown it could be the kind of subtle buff that might bring the WRs closer to 50%m/a, at the same time as introducing a mechanic that puts the level of control more in line with contemporary games.

    I think they just need to remove the speed nerf on walking backwards. There is literally no reason to hit the S key because you basically stop moving. I find it ridiculous that I have to strafe to go backwards at a reasonable speed.

    Thing is I have the side mouse button mapped for team voice chat already ^^ Also works wonders. If I was of the "not chatty" type then Id do as you suggets indeed though...
