Elmiond Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 Datacrons, you'll often want to change whether you are walking/running/sprinting between jumps. It should stay on after death though, luckily thats in the next patch's patchnotes, so.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marshalleck Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 (edited) In beta it used to not auto-toggle. If you went into combat or died it would turn off and stay off until activated again. I'm guessing its current form is a transitory state between its prior form as a true toggle and its proposed form as always on or always off.

DariuszPol Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 Game should remember if it's on or off and it should not be switched to off when you die. It was pissing me off in warzones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpikeRosered Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 I can agree with it not coming off when you die, but while they're at it they should make it so your class buff is always on you, but you are capable of casting it on others for fun. I like the buff idea, but why make it needlessly time out after a half hour. I now have a habit of recasting it every time I have the thought to just to avoid this.

Mikkeos Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 In 1.1.2 the client will remember the status of sprint when you die and keep it unchanged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well some abilities like lightsaber forms and such stay on, so i guess its possible they could implement this on sprint. it would be most usefull on warzones.

sjmc Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 Sometimes my framerate gets low enough that I have trouble moving around (movement gets very jerky). If I need to carefully negotiate something, like a bridge, I may turn off sprint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acke Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 Why not toggle run off, rather then toggle run on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gelantious Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 The datacron hunting that was already mentioned. And also RP reasons, different animation when running compared to sprinting so want to be able to choose between the two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So You'r the one of those playes that don't buff their teammates ? I odn't get people whining about sprint toggling off. Whats the big deal to turn it on again. I have it right under my class buff so when I die i pop buff and then toggle sprint back on again. How hard is that ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daeborn Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 I mean, really, can you envisage a situation where you wouldn't have sprint enabled? It really ought to be just a passive , always on ability. Just leave it off your tool bar and go into your skills to turn it on. Pretend it's passive.

I don't always, but there are definitely a couple jumps/narrow pipe walks that I turn sprint off for.

KilmarFyrewynd Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 I turn it off to mario the datacrons. I would also be peeved if I can't turn it off. Some of the jumps are near impossible when sprint is turned on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
