don’t worry. it does no damage at all, and i don’t think anyone would complain of it being overpowered.
it’s part of the broader melee package that’s i’m not supposed to talk about but which has a very different approach than the standard shooter fare. i imagine there’ll be stuff revealed about it in the new year.
Watch Brink's Gameplay Videos in High Definition
Footage of this would rock

Also you lot better be playing with us on release day
I want get tickled by your pure pwnage
Not sure whether this has been asked before Rahdo…
Is there any significant speed increase sprinting, if a player switches from their main weapon, to a lighter gun?
I wonder if somebody asked that already, but anyway. Can I slide under the table and hide there? 
Yes, provided you’d be able to crouch and waddle under the table as well. If you’ve read any of Paul’s previous interviews, we’re all about running over tables, not under!

Currently we’re not doing that old Counterstrike “run with a knife to the battlefront” chestnut.
Glad to hear it, was kinda bored of having to do that in ET:QW to gain some speed… lets just say my profile always had the pistol as my fave weapon cos it was in my hand most of the time ¬_¬
Never played CS, but I know it was definitely a feature on QW and something that the Heavy Soldiers had to master. In Brink I guess it would make sense not to include it - to give the athletic / skinny guys that distinct agility advantage.
Thanks for the reply.
However it’s even quicker running with the scout sniper rifle than the knife. Don’t ask me why!
You can see one slide in part 1 of the containercity gameplay at 2:56.
Fluffy_gIMp comes sliding in and gets shot down before he stands up.

Thx abrain i missed the sliding part :), Thank You! m(_ _)m
In the playtest today, I was charging a guy and he was firing back, had me dead to rights, but I slid, he shot over my head, and I kept firing while I was sliding, and dropped him like a bad habit. It was beyond awesome!
Firing while sliding, awesome! Damn, stop teasing the game like this, I can’t wait anymore.
Interesting. That makes me think, what about an option to unequip everything so you gain a slight speed/SMART boost (both hands free after all) at the cost of not being able to do anything else?
Then again, that would just mean yet another option and I don’t think the game controllers have that many buttons.
