This may or may not have caused me to run off a roof, much to my surprise.

Hey

Sorry but we were unable to reproduce the issue. Would it be possible to record and attach a video?

Thanks

Hey Kira!

I just recorded a video. you can find it at http://www.twitch.tv/johnboyatl/c/3967811

One remark: I logged into a server that said "Hardcore" but it loaded my "regular" character. I couldn't switch to 3rd person. But it should be clear what the character does.

To replicate: Double tap "w" to run, then press 2 or 1 or whatever quickbar button you want to switch to and then right after that let go of the "w" key. The animation for switching guns or taking out the axe/gun will play. only once this is finished the character will stop moving.

Yeah this happens to me too often and it is quite annoying

I just reported the exact same thing except that it actually killed me. Didn't know this issue already existed. I will monitor this one. Sorry.
