Does anybody else have this problem.

I go to take cover and use conceal shot then when I stand up I am stuck in walk mode. I check and I am still on always run, and I am not holding shift. When I log out and come back I cannot move at all. So I have to log out of 10 minutes and then it becomes unstuck. IS this just me or do more of you have it.

This has happened to two riflemen friends of mine recently and frustrated us to no end. Dueling and DB did not fix it. They cloned just as slow.

We don't know what exactly is happening, but it always occurs after the usey /takecover

Our theories is that it might have to do with my Squad Leader + group terrain negotiation and the /takecover calculations. We bugged the slow walk/freeze in place when it happened, but only later got the idea that it might be SqLeader bonuses interfering. Is that just a wild theory or does this freeze up happen at other times?

Has nobody else had this problem?

Thanks,

I do everytime without fail. Have to log out to fix it.

Yep, happens every single time I take cover. I believe it has to do with having a terrain negotiation modifier over 50 (Ranger, squad leader effects).

I do wish they'd fix it, or at least acknowledge it, though.

This also happens to me alot.

After the first time it happened,I was stuck in walk mode, so I logged out, waited 5 mins or so, then logged back in to find i couldn't move. I got a CSR to help...he just forced me to load and everything was fine (btw, thanks MervK :smileyhappy.

However, after the second time it happened, I (accidentally) tried taking cover again whilst in walk mode. When I stood up, everything was fine. I was no longer in walk mode.

This has worked for me every time so far. The second /takecover seems to undo what the first /takecover does.

Not sure if this will work for everyone, but it does for me.

I found that when this happens to me I walk into water so I have to swim. After swimming slowly I find my speed has returned to normal.

Yes it does that to me Every time i havent used it for months

ALT-TAB out of SWG to the Desktop, and ALT-TAB back in. It might help with your problem.

Happens to me as well..Rifleman/Ranger. I had a feeling it had to do with Terrain Negotiation..think the fact that Squad Leader's are also experienceing this problem pretty much confirms it. I'll have to try the taking cover a second time trick and see if that works.

Does not happen to me, but I don't have any Ranger or SL. Happens a lot to my friend who is a Rifleman/Ranger/SL. Not sure if it is the Ranger or the SL that contributes to the problem. For him logout does not do the trick and he has to exit the client entirely and start from scratch.
