Sprint with binoculars in hand has at least three problems.
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Sprint with binoculars in hand has at least three problems.

  1. Too fast sprint (not relistic)
  2. Sprint in the kneel position no has specific animation (instead this, the player visually sees still the erect animation)
  3. During this sprint, when the player switches between each other kneel/erect positions, then the player character will always stop self movement.

Hello!

Stopping the character while changing kneel / erect is fixed in latest DEV branch.

Animation for binocular / unarmed kneel sprint will be added ASAP.

Kneeled sprint speed will be also kept in mind (no decision yet).

Will advise, thank you and have a very nice day.

Agreed on the sprint.It quite fast considering all weight still carred
on your body.

  1. Sprint in the kneel position no has specific animation (instead this, the player visually sees still the erect animation)

Steps to reproduce: Dev branch: (1.45.13.0665)

Altis
Place squadleader on the map
Preview
Equip binoculars
(press enter for 3rd person)
start moving and Double press shift for sprint
without stopping press X for crouch
Experience same animation (errect sprint) while
icon will change to a crouched position

3.Can't reproduce.My character is not stopping (look above what
happens when I switch from errect to crouched)

I found the fourth issue, when movement with binoculars.
BIS, Please fix this also!
Yes, this movement is not sprint, but i think, it required attention also.
If you are going to do the movement with binoculars ideally good, please fix it also.

If the player under fire in the prone position, with binoculars in hand, then this player can't do a tumble(roll) in the side direction, similarly as this can be done with weapons in hands.
Thus binocular in the player hand, provides less chance for salvation.
I think the player should have a chance to roll to the side.
This will realistic.

"Can't reproduce.My character is not stopping (look above what

Try to use sprint W + Shift" and and simultaneously try press "C" (or another button, which you used for switch Kneel/erect positions)
Before changing position(erect/ kneel) your character will always stop movement. This does not happen with weapon in hand, this happens only with binoculars. This requires a hotfix!

After 1.44. update I haven't noticed any changes.
Everything remains the same(

Hi mickeymen, have you tried it with latest DEV branch 1.45.130665? I tested it just now and the issue is solved from my point of view.

As for sprint animation for kneel - we are working on that, animation should be ready soon and then we will implement it to avoid confusion about current character stance (erect / kneel sprint).

Regarding prone tumble, we will also review it.

Thank you guys for your feedback, I will keep you informed.

burkhar thanks for your attention.

"mickeymen, have you tried it with latest DEV branch 1.45.130665?"
No, I don't use dev version. I always use only the stable version.

The fact is that in the list of updates 1.44 written, what fixes have already been made, but in the game I don't see any changes.

Hello, I provide brief update on this ticket.

New animations created and configured for:

  • kneel unarmed sprint
  • erect binoculars in hand sprint
  • kneel binoculars in hand sprint

This is fixed in DEV branch 1.45.130980 and will be part of 1.46 update.

I am also investigating the tumble (roll) issue while prone with binoculars in hand. It will be fixed as well.

Thank you for your attention and have a very nice day!

burkhar Thanks for info

Hello, we implemented rolling with binoculars in hands while prone. This is fixed in 1.46 Release Candidate (you can use it by right-clicking Arma 3 in Steam Library, select Properties, select BETAS tab and enter "Arma3Update146RC" code tu unlock it) and will be part of 1.46 update.

Thank you for your feedback and have a very nice day!
