Issue 14 Weird Speed Thing

Anyone else noticed that you move slower than usual for a few seconds after the mission/zone loads, then return to normal speed?

It's not lag or anything like that. It feels like a debuff, but there's no icon to show such a thing.

Any ideas?

I have noticed a similar thing. It appears that all my speed buffs (sprint etc.) are disabled for a couple of seconds whenever I zone. This is especially noticeable on my /SR scrapper. Indeed, I monitor her run speed and it drops to her base running speed before jumping back up to her normal rediculously fast pace.

Yeah. Looked at Combat Attributes and when you come into a zone/mission, all you've got are the Speed Attributes from Base/Sprint.

I'd lost Swift/Mental Training & a couple of Small Improved Run Speed Bonuses from the list for about 10 seconds.

Another Issue 14 bug to add on to the pile then

Yeah noticed this today, yet another really annoying thing, though it looks like the chat bug has gone

Zhaan, Chakyra, Fiorina 161, Aeryn, Polly Nation, Dee Pression, Shazanne, Night Jester and too many more to mention.

Could this be to stop the annoying rubber banding when zoning?

---

Zoning affects some toggles as well. Like weave.

This is just a theory, but.

I'm sure in i14 they've stopped powers and set bonuses from stacking when you zone. For example, every time i zoned in i13 on a toon that has the Numina and Miracle uniques the effect from both IO's always used to stack, it no longer does.


So, i don't think it's a bug, perhaps an intentional fix?

CoH PvP SG = SuperUnion - Co-Leader - Union/Freedom
CoV PvP VG = Disruption - Co-Leader - Union/Freedom
Global = @Rent & @Rent.

Playgroup are all **** - Global Handle

Missed out of the patch notes....?

Actually, who am I trying to kid. Of course it would have been.

It's still very annoying when you drop to a snail's pace for 10 seconds every time you zone.

TBH I'd call that a bug; if it's meant to stop things stacking and turns out to kill completely legitimate unstacked bonuses too, that's unintended and detrimental behaviour. A bug.
