Dagana 1 Posted February 24, 2013 Hey I've been playing for a few months but I've never been able to figure out why I run faster than my buddies. I always play with one other guy and since the beginning my character has always ran faster than his. He just became a hero today and I still can outrun him. Im not complaining about it cause running faster is better when escaping Zeds but I'm still curious. I'm not a hacker or anything like that. It's also possible that he's just extra slow for some reason. If anyone can explain this that would be awesome Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
smokeeye 8 Posted February 24, 2013 (edited) 1. Are you double tapping "W" (forward)? This will make you sprint for a short period.2. Have you macro'd a key for "W" (forward)? If so, and you have set that macro on repeat in a short interval (ie every 10 millisecond) you may experience that you go alittle faster then other players.

EdgarFriendly 80 Posted February 24, 2013 Hi, Me and my friend get this all the time.....we have tested EVERYTHING! Myself carrying heavier weapons and or loads and backpack, one of us with less food and water and vice versa but all we found out is that it's just a random merry go round. I'll be faster for 10mins then he will.......WEIRD Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Aimstrong 50 Posted February 24, 2013 Hero Skin give you a bullet proof vest (only for 9mm) and makes you faster for a short time and if you have a pistol then you walk faster than with a primary weapon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dagana 1 Posted February 25, 2013 Its not that im sprinting i look down at my feet to make sure. Also im usually running with a rifle. Its really that im just faster than him. We have the same cpu and use the same internet (we are roomates). I also havent macro'd W. He doesnt look laggy when he runs so i dont think its connection. Thanks for the answers though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
samazooks 8 Posted February 26, 2013 I've had this happen a lot it can vary on lots of things like blood, weight your carrying, guns you have in your hands, humanity ( not completely sure ) but mostly connection I think Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
