Context, in a non-piggy way? 
EDIT. Oooh, that sounds good 
To the Testmobile!

Awesome !
I don't suffer from altitis, I enjoy every minute of it.
Thank you Devs & Community people for a great game.
So sad to be ending ):
It makes sense too - walking around in Praetoria wouldn't draw so much attention to yourself as running everywhere

AHA! BAB's Twitter makes sense now!

I guess this is also for the DP set - gunfighters don't run up to each other when they duel

I have been looking forward to this. There are a LOT of places in Paragon and the RI that I would enjoy strolling by. It seems to me that this subtle addition can add a great deal in terms of enjoyment via immersion into the lush atmosphere of the game.
Kudos Devs for listening!

I thought that would be the gem of a natural orgin booster.
I'm sorry and don't want to or mean to offend anyone but(personal opinion not meant to take shots at anyone)but they have time to add stupid **** like a walking toggle but can't fix Task forces from being stuck on easy mode. This is really disheartening for me and this is just how I feel I can't help it.
Dude, implementing walking is most likely much easier/faster than fixing the TF bug.

I think they meant "Rest", unless it's been a bug that all of my characters have had access to Sprint in the tutorial for the last five years.| The “Walk” power is an Inherent toggle power given to all characters at Level 2 (like Sprint). |
Regardless, I'm... entirely nonplussed by this. In fact, it annoys me a little to think that at least one programmer expended actual development time making something so monumentally unuseful a reality. I know a lot of people have been asking for it, and presumably it'll make them happy (for the ten or twelve seconds it takes them to realize that they aren't making any worthwhile progress and turn it off again), but honestly, walking? In a superhero action game? That's not even as helpful as being able to stand around eating a pink frosted donut.

I'm not sure BAB, the lead animator, has much to do with fixing missions and TFs |

It's kinda like being annoyed at Castle for not making a partciular costume part, or raging at Sexy Jay for the I13 PvP changes
If BAB has time to add extra animations, that doesn't really affect the other departments - if he hadn't been working no the walk animation, the time would have been used on another animation, not on fixing TF bugs.

Maybe, if there's not going to be another Issue before GR, they're going to add little things like this from time to time? Not enough for an Issue, but a few requested QoL things?

OMG THEY NERFED SPRINT!

They all laughed at me when I said I wanted to be a comedian.
But I showed them, and nobody's laughing at me now!

I tried to animate that bug away, but no luck so far. I'll keep you updated on my progress on that front.

... ya know... I had a proper rant ready to go about how animation effects and powers have very little to do with bug fixes in the code... then you have to go be all polite about it and ruin my rant...

Some feedback - not sure if it's intended or not, but when you try and go backwards, it flips you to face that way, so you don't actually walk backwards while still facing the direction you're walking away from.

Paragon Unleashed, Unleash Yourself!
The animation is really well done - it's confident, but also a little bit sexy - it's how you'd walk if you had superpowers

Probably because there's currently no sideways/backwards walking currently in the animations library, and time would have to be spent making them.|

On that note, I wonder when can we expect the crouch-walk toggle?
@Morac | Twitter
Trust the computer. The computer knows all.
'Cuz now you can.
Currently on the Test server:
The Walk power is an Inherent toggle power given to all characters at Level 2 (like Sprint).
Please Note that powers or jumping (i.e. pressing the Space Bar) cannot be used while walking.
This power is not intended for use in combat.
