Revert back to normal Road runners

[mental basin]

Before the huge Engine Update The road runners were probably in one of there most fluid states the OTG community has ever seen. The change of direction and speed boost was crucial in allowing players to be creative finding new movement techs and mechanics. After this update I’ve noticed the road runners do not charge you for activation which is awesome! BUT the fact that they have to charge up in speed now kills the limb itself and almost makes it unplayable in game. A few patches ago I remember once you would slide or do certain mechanics it would cancel the road runners allowing you to reactivate em, that is completely out of the game now. I think a lot of people would just like the limb to be viable again cuz as of now it’s not anymore. Just change it back please

If you combine the new dodge feature with roadrunners, it works well. I believe they made the roadrunner worse, since we have the dodge now.

[mental basin]

Absolutely incorrect, the new dash is amazing but you cannot move the same way you used to with the old road runners. The legs are actually not viable anymore and in game they are useless. The old road runners required a high level of skill to use and as one of the best movement players on NA servers I am telling you right now it’s not even close.

[timber sequoia]

Wow, high skill level to use, really, just activate and keep pressing A and D... you are the god of movement! You could be the best in NA at reading comprehension, I didn't say that movement is on the same level, I said that if you combine it with dodging, it looks good, not better or worse.

[reef sandal]

honestly have no idea why certain decisions are made. there was no need to ever slow the game down this much to cater for the casusals, all that was needed was some sort of ranked months ago. instead the best features of this game are being ripped apart. its a joke, why take away such a fluid and dynamic feature. RIP Road runners- 2024-2025

[mental basin]

The fact that you even replied like that tells me what level you play at 😂 and I don’t play MnK so I don’t press A or D I actually destroy people who try and do that lmao but I’m sorry that was such an issue for you back in the day

[timber sequoia]

hahahahah The fact is that the roadrunner is your emotional support, you just cried more, when your aim assist was reduced.

[vale bough]

BUMP ‼️

[mental basin]

Smh you complain about A and D key and now you know ima controller player so you complain about aim assist… Your a mutant when it comes to complaining dude lol

[neat bramble]

Bro the roadrunners were very fair, now they are unusable. It’s sad they always have the nerf RR just to make other legs feel strong, rather then buffing all leg limbs to be viable they force these metas onto us, it’s not fun in my opinion.

[timber sequoia]

Hahaha dude, you are schizophrenic, or have the level of argument of an 8-year-old child, who opened a topic to cry was you. And I had already warned you about this, you have a deficit in text comprehension.

[jagged portal]

This is the answer. Stop nerfing stuff into the ground instead of buffing competing items. Its healthy to have multiple viable options

[subtle rover]

Why do the devs keep nerfing the beautiful movement in the game just let the casual players get better they were starting to as it was. Making the game easier for new players has ruined one of the greatest movement games I've ever played

[jagged portal]

When the reason most people fell in love with the game or still play the game was because of the movement. Its getting harder to keep supporting/playing the game everytime they nerf it

[subtle rover]

Agree 100 % taking the fun out of it

they were fun

[finite haven]

Everyone agrees

we should make a round table where someone represents each team

ig thats what this kinda is

[lapis needle]

apprently shotguns can 1 shot

might have something to do with that

havent tried

tho

gonna miss those stair fights

had a good one last day before update so got it all out

[tropic siren]

I don’t even main RR. But I agree.

[errant quiver]

I don't use RR, so I welcome the new update. Thank you for your attention.🤣

[tawny hedge]

Don't main RR and agree they were in a good place before. They need to have more playtesting prior to making some of these big changes with a mixture of fun/competitive people.

[west moth]

Actually got to play, seems like one trick players are haveing a hard time with the limb update

But the road runners don’t have to be this useless

[mental basin]

Cmon @west moth give this thread some real feedback don’t come in here and troll the people who can only use road runners

[west moth]

That’s not a troll that’s literally people that rely on the road runners for movement are having a hard time. Would you say that’s not the truth?

And I also said that they don’t have to be that useless, but that doesn’t take away from the fact that people that rely on roadrunners are having a hard time finding new movement tech

[balmy tangle]

I love it , I understand what they mean bc it is a little too slow maybe useless but it forces you to learn different styles , but everyone already on mirror legs the same RR ppl

[west moth]

Yeah, I wouldn’t say I’m trolling. It’s just a different opinion.

[balmy tangle]

What a week didn’t say nun when they patched air play , Don’t say nun with runners lol

I love it , it does need to be a little tweaked but it might break em even more

[dawn talon]

Me and some others probably won't be coming back until theu revert to some of the stuff, its just not an enjoyable game anymore, im not the best but I loved the comp aspect of it and the grind to get better at the game

[west moth]

Comp is still here it’s just not a rr meta anymore

[pale ember]

First - I love ❤️ you all ok 🤗 so please don’t crucify me after sharing my opinion. See video for context.

• *RR received a nerf *- It was META in a way that was forcing good non-RR users to end up using them to get the “flee fast - jump in air with slamfist” escape from harm reaction. Seeing lots of “best pro competitive Players” in a common ground do tell it was META.

• See clip - When I got hands on RR, 😱 how cheese it is to tap, circle target and take down. Target took from me a single plate and I simply tap RR in his face. If you see it and say “target doesn’t know how to play” then point is proven, RR is a menace for casuals. If we say he can learn to use RR the point is proven, RR is shutting down other legs overall. That means RR need tweaking. Having ranked lobbies doesn’t take away the issue, because is a RR mechanic thing.

• Arm limbs got a revival on past update, - we are seeing A LOT of arm variety used! I’ve seen great players using other legs also and is scary BECAUSE THEY ARE GOOD PLAYERS! What does this tells if not that COMPETITION is always present and nerfing / buffing things here and there doesn’t take it away, it just adjust the battleground rules of engagement! Slugger indoors deter great players to even consider entering area now and it was criticized… was to OP because we can’t run through with RR 🫣. RR nerf was coming. It doesn’t nerf your abilities as a player.

• Dodge mechanic - Is new, gives you the “look what I did” opportunity to make crazy moves, go showcase its use! I’ve seen great players already working on it 💪

• Expect Paralyzer- I have seen this “forgotten limb” used more now, and it will keep raising in usage for sure because is the “turn off switch” idea of shutting down limbs. If it blows painkiller drone consider it a done deal I guess.

Conclusion:

We yelled (stat wise) that RR required attention because of its use. It will happen again but in which one? 🤔

[west moth]

Perfect example of camera breaking

[polar steppe]

(Only to the "pro" community) Instead of crying about roadrunners use this opportunity to create another play style and stop relying on crutches, the game is going to go thru tuning changes like this as they make way to the final product, at the end of the day. Adapt or die fellas... adapt or die.

[spare lantern]

100% they cried about BB being a crutch but in all reality biggest crutch was RR if Para and/or slugger was ban in comp it immediately eliminates all other legs as zero counter play unless you had RR yourself.

People saying update sucks is literally only RR crutch users same people who just ran x2 slams x2 M4 RR

[west moth]

^^^^^ that last part

[lapis needle]

i cant bruh

there is no meta

without competitive environment

meta this meta that

mfs dont even pickup teardrop weapons

need compensation for other takes/opinions

[mental basin]

It’s not something that was a crutch by any means. It was the most versatile way on playing the game. It offered movement and a whole bunch of other aspects that hammer heads and leapers and pretty much any other leg couldn’t provide. For my self I’ve already been dropping 30 bombs still…… but the game ain’t fun I don’t wanna pop mirror legs, I don’t wanna use hammers heads or leapers lol it’s way to easy. I guess what I’m trying to say is that I just don’t feel the need to try and be good at the game now it’s just way to easy… also comp is never gonna be the same, believe me when I say that. All the players that wanted to be competitive are not gonna play anymore and who’s gonna step up and take there spot? Some middle aged man who only cares about a gold monkey mask? 😂😂😂😂 ye ok we’ll see how long that lasts 💯

[west moth]

Yea rr don’t have to be that useless 1000% but rr also was at the time just about the only legs in the game besides lancers because you could juke every other leg, trust me don’t think I think the rr need to be all slow and sht

Turn them on and I’m road walking 🚶

[dawn talon]

Thats the main problem I have with it is that theyre somebody's grandma's power walkers at the mall. I like to take fights inside which is why I like rr. I use hammerhead or leapers inside even cyberlancers its not that effective in getting away and resetting inside a building when need be. Dodge is good but could use a little tune. And idc that they nerfed rr, i just feel like a reduced usage time would've been sufficient as I feel like they were already in the best state
