@Zulkiers: "Military and police aren't slowed that much by gunfire. "
What do you mean by they aren't slowed that much? If they get hit with a round in the chest, the armor may stop the round from penetrating, but they still get knocked to the ground. A 45 can feel like a sledge hammer to the chest.
I will say I understand tactical advantages overall, but Octane's speed breaks the very core concept of any shooter. It's like in Halo, one team can sprint and the other cannot. This one feature is the most dramatic counter measure to what is simply the most generic means of attack - the gun.

Knockback/knockdown and slow are two totally different things. I did mention knockback in that same post.
A bullet in the shoulder doesn't slow them for 5 seconds. Just a little stun / knockback. A slow is illogical. A knockback might be. There IS a difference.
In valorant, you hardly get grazed and you are practically immobilized, giving the enemy a free kill. I don't want that in Apex. A knockback perhaps, but not a slow.
