Lower Objective Carry Speed

(Yak) #1

As it is right now, when carrying the objective you’re as fast as if you have your melee weapon out. I think it should be changed to the speed of either secondary or primary, so the defenders can actually catch the person running with it.

no its fine as it is. try using the bullets in your gun to “catch” the person. Bullets can run pretty fast

Yeah, I can’t really agree with this proposal. They are limited to using the object as melee only so it being treated like you have a melee weapon out is perfectly fine.

My problem is mostly the last objective in bridge. Once they leave the lab with the sample, it’s almost impossible to catch them, especially if they’re an Aura or Proxy.

Well, that’s what makes the map different. It’s a race to catch them/cut them off. It’s tense because of that IMO.

Actually i agree with OP…

Proxies running with objective IS REAL PAIN IN THE BUTT… Those things are hard to hit while half of their team is defending 1 player…

I think the speed of player carrying objective should be decreased, maybe to the speed of Rhino sprint? After all they are carrying AN ITEM , not a feather !

Well, it’s not like you’re terribly slow and behind, they still need time to deliver and you can cut them off by that time.

From the point of realism, the carryable is probably a lot heavier than a knife. But also I think it should be a bit slower from a gameplay perspective because that makes it so the enemy team has to protect their carrier, instead of the carrier succeeding purely from speed. This isn’t an issue on Trainyard, but on Bridge I think it is.

but RyePanda because u play proxy, with all the limitations the light class has like low dmg weapon and low HP, u kno how hard it is to get in and take the obj right?

Its not like u play a fat over HP heavy and just want the advantage tipped in your favor by gimping the lights speed advantage any way u can, right?

The current carrying speed is completely fine as is considering that the carrier is defenseless and an easy kill.

If you’re that bothered by it, then just don’t play a heavy class if you’re on defense.
