[PC] Holding Forward + Dodge makes you Sprint

[Ogny8791]

When playing with Keyboard & Mouse you have Dodge on the Spacebar but if you hold Space your character starts to sprint instead. When fighting and you're stressed you might accidently hold Space when dodging in panic and thus leading to Sprinting instead and you don't dodge at all and get hit from whatever you were trying to dodge.

Why have this functionality on the Dodge key when there's a separate Sprint button on PC ?
This feels more like a function for those on Console.

Is that the original option? I dont even remember anymore, i changed all that stuff at release.

I haven't found a way to disable sprinting from the dodge button

Weird, never had this happen to me. But I don't have Toggle Sprint, I have Held sprint..

It's not that that is the problem. The dedicated Sprint button works as it should. But for some reason when I press and hold my Dodge button it triggers Sprint which it shouldn't at all.

They are not set on the same key.

Yeah!
In my case after the previous patch Space causes not Dodge but leap forward (I cannot call it Sprint for it is not a long distance), a very strange move:
I am attacked with Red Marker → I press Space → I leap into the attacker.
I cannot play anymore at high difficulty.

I'm playing with keyboard and mouse, not a controller.

Have you tried pressing another direction while dodging? I think if you just press dodge and no direction your character "dodges" forwards.

For most classes I play, tapping space is by default a dodge backward, not forward.
Holding down W, A or D turn them into a forward, left or right dodge respectively.
Playing on M&K with Held sprint, on Heavy, Bulwark, Assault, Sniper and Tactical

I can only assume no one here ever played Gears of War on KBM if they feel that there's anything wrong with this bind setup :U

Dude, i played this game for hours and actually didnt know that holding down dodge makes you sprint. How the hell do you got a problem with this? I have been dodging forever without even sprinting once. Not saying that this isnt a stupid design though.

Ima boot up my game and check now, you're making me paranoid that this happens for everyone

Wow, yeah it does.

You should change the title to Holding [Forward] + [Dodge] makes you sprint. Holding [Dodge] makes me Dodge backward and then stand still.

Consider letting go of the W key, it's tired.
