FWIW, even though I probably won't use it *much,* I was rather happy to see it in Aion. Nice, relaxed saunter through a forest... then whip out the bow and start perforating something.

Ooh, satisfying the roleplayers and the anti-SBers in one fell swoop. Great job, devs!

This is really disheartening for me and this is just how I feel I can't help it.
You will sing a different tune when you see female characters sashaying around Paragon City!

Seriously, the guys who do this have nothing to do with fixing task forces. It seems like a new-guy project to let one of the new programmers/animators that were hired some months back learn how the system works.

This is absolutely PERFECT! And you can even walk while looking to one side or another! No backward walking, but that's fine, at least you turn around.

YESYESYESYESYESYESYESYES!

Yay! Much Fun!

Yes, I know there are people that always whine loudly about any change if it is not their pet change!
I have a friend who complains every day about any change the local government does, no matter how good that change is with "They could have used that money to feed the poor!"

The Mass transit system will be expanded to create jobs and improve the economy for all!
"They could have used that money to feed the poor!"

When they talk about the schedule for putting up the town Christmas lights . . .
"They could have used that money to feed the poor!"
(Yes, they would rather that all of us have a dreary holiday, all of us rich and poor rather than the few meals that could be supplied. Never mind that the celebration and lights actually will put more people in the mood to donate to feeding the poor.)

Sorry, if someone didn't get their difficult-to-implement favorite fix made, when this easy QoL fix was put in.

  • People have been asking for Walk (just for the fun of it) for YEARS!
  • It was easy to do.
  • They did it.
  • Get over it.
  • Just Walk away.

First time someone insists on walking everywhere in a mission, the inherent Kick power (and I don't mean the one from the Fighting pool) gets deployed.

"I'm walkin' heah!" is only a good battle cry for Dustin Hoffman.


My scrapper doesn't need an AoE. She IS an AoE.

Just tested the new walk, and why do the female characters have their helluva nerve to be switching their butts just as cute as they wanna be?

You could always give the critters in task forces the Soul Storm bug: that's bound to make task forces a bit harder.

That only really works if you're Speed Walker, though.

Has anyone actually confirmed that this slows SB'd characters?

I always viewed the ACTUAL speed boost part of SB as a downside intended to balance all the other benefits.

Would be shocked to learn that SB now HAS no downside.

Well, yes Walk actually puts a hard cap on movement speed, so that there's no way possible to increase it. However, while Walk is toggled on, all powers are grayed out, similar to being in Studio B of the AE buildings. Thus, the Run speed is shut off, but so is every other benefit from the power. (doesn't matter how good your recovery is, if you're not using any of it beyond whatever Walk costs)
