Arma 3 could use a feature where you can press a key that toggles your unit to walk forward until you use your movement keys WASD or press the toggle key again.
This would help for example in infrantry movement when people could use the text chat without having to stop their jogging/walking/running and fall behind from rest of the squad.
Also holding down the w on very long walks (~ 10 min) doesn't feel comfortable, for me at least.
