Anyone else noticed assassins speed glitching again? The first couple times I just assumed it was an Assassin with a Gold speed endorsement,.. but then last night I saw one doing the backpedal just as fast as the forward sprint... you know what I mean, the impossibly fast backpedal that makes it obvious. Not as insane fast as the original glitch that was patched, but still ridiculously fast regardless.. I'm like 99% positive on sighting this a couple times, wondering if I'm alone...
Might've been the recent glitch where people get stuck with a slither of health left and can't die. When this happened to me with assassin, I was running ridiculously fast while it happened. But if its actually when they are running around not a clue.
Sometimes running as the Assassin I'll fall into what looks like a glitch: a few times while trying to smoke bomb jump I'll end up having my character and the camera jitter up and down, as if the Assassin is now having trouble staying on the ground (something like being caught between falling through the floor and walking atop it), and other times I'll actually be sprinting without actually using the sprint skill. I don't intentionally set out to do either, but will often find myself in a situation of looking at this happen and not knowing how or why it is happening. To add to the topic, rather than post a new thread asking about it, and because the search result for this is very hit or miss for me (sometimes I haven't a clue how to search for the exact thing I'm looking for), but is it normal for an Assassin to be fully cloaked as they slash about? I've seen this on a few occasions, along with front-side grapples resulting in back stab grapples and often times from varying distances from these same Assassin players.
Gold Sprint, Dash and a Sprint Pick up make you REALLY fast. Same with Juice. It's really fun running that fast. No glitch though. However, spawning with no dash and lunge IS a glitch. Also sometimes once you finish juicing you don't run properly, you sort of jitter along until you use dash again where you run fine. But when not using dash, you jitter. Major issue.
Its possible that it was Gold Speed + some pickups.. but I'm still not positive, because I've done that myself a thousand times.. I'll just have to keep on the lookout I guess.
If an assassin has 3-6 speed pickups and uses level 3 speed along with having speed as an endorsement it might seam like they are glitching. It's not a glitch it's called theiving the speed pickups and running.
