Running/Crouch Running Toggle Stops

[astroz0mbie 5]

Anyone else had an issue where running/crouch running stops?

Every now and then if I run up a hill or sideways/diagonal, my crouch run stops.

I then walk until I randomly switch between prone, standing, crouching then suddenly it start running again.

If I'm crouched and I double tap w, it will stand and run, but I can't get back to crouch running unless I just do a little dance of head, shoulders, knees and toes....

Yeah, I have but not the same issues exactly. I have problems where I'm pegging it in a full sprint or crouch run and my character just stops for no reason. The only way to resolve this problem is a bit of button bashing or hit 'S' to back up. Dunno if this is a lag issue? (Can someone confirm?) However, you will stop running up steep inclines - this is normal. So if you've button bashed the W key whilst stopped on the incline, expect to be full sprinting upon a regular incline.

Something I learned in my early dayz - if you want to instantly jump from sprinting to crouch running, just hit 'X' and if you wanna switch from crouch running to sprinting, hit 'C.' I made the mistake of double tapping W to sprint from a crouch run all too often (and after so many lives had been lost)

I think i'm more describing what you are describing. I know if you run up a steep incline you will stop running.

I run diagonal up and down steep hills. I crouch run quite a bit and found on occasion I just stop running.

I thought it had to do with steep hills or me using a combination of W and A or D at the same time...

I have to stop and mess with the buttons/crouch/standing/prone and move around for running to kick back in.

I run everywhere and use shift to walk or slow down when near zombies or survivors.

happens about once or twice a night.

Right-click - you are zoomed in and are forced into walking.

You probably dont notice this because you are in 3rd Person View, and without a weapon / firearm.

You can also toggle:

Ctrl

Q

E

If you don't have a weapon you cannot see it, but it will stop you from running.

Also you cannot run up steep slopes, but recently I noticed that it has been relaxed a bit so that running whilst standing works up some slopes but not double tapping W.
