Standing on Tip Toes/Stretching

Recommended Posts

Did a quick search even though I'm sure this has been suggested at least once before.  We can lean (Q & E) to look around walls without exposing our entire body (or at all if we use 3rd person).  I play mostly in first person and was on a server scavenging when I tried to look inside a window of a house to see if it had any loot at all (since it's kind of a crap shoot now) my head was just bellow the windowsill and I couldn't see in.  I did this with a few houses and though, "Man, why can't I tip toe?"

 

I propose being able to tiptoe/stretch in order to gain a few more inches in the possibility to see inside a building through a window or over a 'low' wall.  I would have the default to be Q + E as the bind, and that you wouldn't be able to shoot/fire while on tip toes (I think you can fire while leaning but not sure, never had a need for it).

 

EDIT

 

'Stretching' would also work while prone, to just lift your head up a little to hopefully see over the grass.

 With the lack of jumping and the ability for items to spawn at places just outside your reach (I'm look at you, top floor of the apartments) I think this would be a great alternative. It makes sense that you can't jump with 50+ kilo gear at your back but stand on your toes.

Yes this is a great idea , also I would like them to incorporate a "squat" button , so that it would be height wise , in between crouching and standing ( like when you move forward while crouching you're at the height I'm talking about ). Beans doctor
