Sprint mouse sensitivity
That's me or the mouse sensitivity is slower when we sprint ? Please set a optional setting to toggle it off.

its popular with other games too - as it shouuld be - as when you sprint you cant turn as fast as when you are walking or standing - learn to stop turn and continue running if you need speed

Sure its realistic, but i think it need to be optionnal.

In real life it is a lot more natural to do quick turns during sprint and your body slows down automatically to make up for the damn turning, not the other ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ way around. My neck doesn't turn slower when I want to turn, I am not a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ truck. My legs however start to move slower AUTOMATICALLY IRL when I try to turn, as it should ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ be in games as well.

It would make it more immersive and natural, but no we have ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ naysayers like you giving the developers a bad idea of what is natural and what isn't because you "Make do" with the ♥♥♥♥ you got.

While arguably realistic (and if optional, I'd leave it on), achieving this through reducing the mouse sensitivity is a hack.

What they need to do is properly simulate the player character's physics (inertia and all that jazz), like they did in freaking System Shock one, what, 3 decades ago?

Edit: to be clear, the physics calculations on the player model were quite basic and not a "full- on" sim, but the PC had a working physics model. Thanks, Seamus Blackley (and no, i did not need to look that up!)

Noticed this immediately when I first ran. Very annoying, and found this topic (and an other). I guess I'll have to get used to it. It feels wacky though, but I guess this isn't Doom 2016.

I noticed this while running to the first elevator, very annoying, and who cares about realism? I play with such a low sensitivity I have to move my mouse off the table and into the kitchen to turn 180 degrees while sprinting... and before you comment "haha, change your sensitivity dickwad" no, I have the same sensitivity in all games like a sensible person... also cs

one of the stupidest things ever seen in a video game
it really destroys the gaming experience

a fix exists, it is called Prey Interface Customizer (PRIC)

I don't understand why anyone ever talked about this magnificent software.

Not realistic in the slightest lol
You can still turn your head while sprinting.
