Yeah, the game could be a bit more exciting with sprint. (Without the sound which makes you want to piss).

Shame everyone in EU learnt to play without it.

Forgive the bitter Aussies for wanting sprint... they're just bitter about loosing the rugby.

Dude don't forget the ozzies :(

I don't mind a few mb extra to download because of the code being longer O_o
The problem is, dear ozzies, that the euros never got used to sprint. And I must say, I have never gotten used to it either, simply because it never got used.

I can see the tactical depth, and I have no idea why sprint should be taken out for those that don't use it.
Doesn't that mean it does not apply to them? Afaik the only people that have anything to do with sprint are the ozzies, and you can't deny them as a community just because they live far away from the teamvortex members and speak funny.

You could call it racism, discrimination, whatever, the thing is that, besides being less radical and having no need for a word with such a controversial charge on it, you ARE ignoring the ozzy community, and whatever you are going to call it, there is no way you can deny that :eek:

I vote put it back the way they want it -.- plz? O_o

I don't see any reason to remove it besides it causing bugs in newly added 2.0 code, so if this doesn't apply, can you please put it back? :o pwetty pwease with a cherry on top ;) pweasey weasey teasey weasey easy peasy lemon squeezy? >_<

ps: The sound belongs there, it's part of sprint and the situation arma gave us exactly described it's need.

edit: oops I meant 2.0 not 1.9 :) Fixed

The ozzies had been using it for a long time untill teamvortex tweaked it wrong :(
I think they quit using it when 1.9 came out? x_X
No idea :)

DB 1.9's sprint was just too badly balanced to be fun (mostly because of the jumping while sprinting). The balance was best in 1.6. All that really needs to be changed in 1.9 sprint is that players cannot jump while sprinting, and ALL jumps take stamina (I noticed that the first jump you do from the ground doesn't take any stamina away). The regeneration speed and amount taken is fine as is though the total should be about 3/4 of its current amount. This wouldn't take THAT much work would it? :<

Okay, well I haven't seriously spoken to DavidM yet, I'll try to soon.

I spoke to Armagon about it on ICQ, and I can see why you would want it back. I can't promise anything, but I'll try.

I hated sprint, and never used it. I use to avoid servers which had it on...But I do think if possible it should stay as there are those who like it...
