Bohannan (DayZ) 235 Posted January 4, 2014 I saw in one of the live streams that Dean held where he states they didnt want to go in the direction of using an auto run key. WTF! This game is 225 km squared and yet you still persist on not adding a freaking auto run key? So far the developers have been pretty involved in what the communities needs are, from deciding what guns we want to other things. Bohemia do yourself a favor and add an Auto Run feature. My W key is begging you and I'm braving carpal tunnel syndrome just playing this game. Because you the designers (or maybe just Dean) feel that it isn't appropriate doesn't mean that your player base (and paying customers) wouldn't like to have this feature. If you want the hardcore realism you could simply, ohh I dont know... Not bind an auto run key?! Anyone else feel that this simple feature should be added? I know im not alone here so lets speak up. 189 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

plexico 386 Posted January 4, 2014 I don't think Dean wants it to be "easy" to get around the map. He's going in the direction of a survival simulator, and in real life you can't just tell your legs to keep on moving while you take a nap or something. I'm not sure how I feel about that feature, but if it was in the game I guess it wouldn't be a huge deal. 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bohannan (DayZ) 235 Posted January 4, 2014 Do you have a coin nearby? Congratulations you have an autorun key!I'm using a laptop, a coin will not work with my system. Hence why I made this post because it really should be a feature. for those complaining about it, nobody would be forcing you to use it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tyrael75 (DayZ) 21 Posted January 4, 2014 You don't need an autorun key, I ran from elektro to NWAF within 10-15 minutes after my friend accidentally killed me with 1 shot of is .45 handgun that hit me in the right side ribs from behind 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Antonidas 10 Posted January 4, 2014 doesn't double tap shift just toggle whether you jog or walk? an auto-run feature would be nice. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chris_heyward 47 Posted January 4, 2014 (edited) Steam do an auto run feature. Google it. I have never used it though. I have my trusty coin or piece of card to hand. It works wonders as I smoke alot and roll my own as I run and just occasionally tweak the mouse so I don't get stuck on trees. ***EDIT** My bad. Apparently they disabled the Steam Autorun in DayZ SA Edited January 4, 2014 by Be4st 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

n1mble 10 Posted January 4, 2014 We do need an auto run button this is a psuedo MMO...all MMO esque games have auto run. this doesn't even come close to making sense. Both games are controlled exactly the same way, wsad. why not have an auto run key if 98% of what a player does in this game is running? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
methr1k2dop3 323 Posted January 4, 2014 i roll a peice of paper up in a ball put it on the w key then set my phone on top of it works like a charm.imo just add it we do it anyway.Doesn't really make the game easier. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hells high 676 Posted January 4, 2014 Bohemia do yourself a favor and add an Auto Run feature. Do yourself a favor, act like a real PC gamer and come up with your own solution. Make a macro, or find something to hold the key down. We are a proud and strong people because we have the power to overcome. 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
