Character Won't Run

[Redalos]

While playing the game I have encountered a problem that has happened to me like 4-5 times and it's quite annoying. Idk when exactly, but suddenly Bayek won't run and just walk slowly, is there any way i can solve this?

you are probably pressing the walk button

[Redalos]

I play with a keyboard which means there's only 1 way to walk, and it's running W :/

no there is a button which makes the character only walk, I think it is Z by default not too sure though since I changed all my controls

Hello Redalos!

As Jake has mentioned, there is a key that will toggle walking. By default it is Z but if you have changed your control scheme you will have to hunt for what it is assigned to. If this is not the issue and you are indeed bugged, please follow up with me and we will go from there!

All good, it was the Z thank you!

Awesome! Happy to hear it was a simple fix and you're back to playing normally!

I learned a while back after installing games, to open the control mapping and see what I had to work with, and possibly remap controls if able and didn't like the defaults.

But then again, without a hard copy of instructions to place near the keyboard like the 'good old days' this is almost a given.

I'm a button-masher, and often go into games and play for a few minutes, first wondering why so many games map critical stuff to the Alt and Ctrl keys. It must be something these youngsters are able to do, but my fingers, hands, wrists can't do those types of contortions.

Secondly, I pray that there are enough keys available that I can do everything I want to do in the game, without having to resort to using some crazy key combinations.. or long reaches.

I prefer to keep "game interrupting" keypresses away from my hand (left), such as Map and Inventory, etc. The only one I left was Tab though. It just seems right for pulling up the "dashboard" where you can select Quests, Map, Inventory, etc. This has been around for a long time and I like it.

Use (being E by default) is pretty much ubiquitous in games now. We almost always have to interact with something. I usually use F for melee, but this game took care of that with a LMB press. Aiming was RMB, so that was good. It's been used a lot to "aim down sights" in a lot of shooters.

V was for changing to Senu's View, ie flying, so that was fine. And I changed Crouch to C. My brain is accustomed to that, but I will use V from time to time. Especially in games that require a press-and-hold type of crouching and it couldn't be toggled.

I rarely used Z or X, but every now and then I'd want to walk so we wouldn't reach dialog-ending checkpoints as quickly, and there were a couple of times I wanted to put the horse or camel on "auto-pilot" (X) while flying around from Senu's pov.

I was SOOO glad to see the radial menu gone from ACO. I am not a fan of those, and I'd much rather use individual keys for selecting weapons and tools.

Overall, it was a pretty much perfect key-control layout.

Alt next to Space which is normally jump, I've gotten used to, as well as Ctrl which is a step from Shift, works too... I got used to them, but Z and X.... get outta here. Those take me from my comfort zone. Ain't no mouse like a gaming mouse..... more buttons please.

Old BF1942 I had F for fall(prone) and C for Crouch. Space being jump would back you out of these....

Z and X make your character walk.

Nah, Z & X are just normal keys to me. Ctrl and Alt were added much, much later in life, well after I had learned how to touch type. They will never feel "normal" to me.

Typing, ah yes.... Young people get this skill early now, and good for them. I had to take a 'business' type curriculum if I wanted to take typing in High school, instead of an Arts based class selection. Since it was new I guess they thought it would be too easy a class if not necessary.

So I never learned to type properly, and a couple years back I tried but was so ingrained in my self taught ways that it was mentally painful and so slow, I gave up.

Kids today can type upside down while doing Keg-stands and humming Beethoven's 5th.
