DONT REMOVE BHOP HEALING
Removing this will do nothing but upset players, it's a skill anyone can do that gives good players an advantage over poor players and it's quite.

It's abuse of broken game mechanics that should be fixed as soon as possible. And no, it's not a skill defining a good shooter player. It's just a crutch "technique" to learn for people who are too bad to play the game fair. Also, people who abuse such broken mechanics generally don't even bother to practice it, they just make a macro for it. NOT fixing it would definitely disappoint many players that believe in games without broken hidden "mechanics". A bug is never a "feature", no matter how much a developer may want to put it out that way.
How on earth is it not fair? Anyone can do it, it's a different skill like other skills in the game.
There's nothing broken about it, and yes, good movement is a vital skill for a "good shooter player". You have no idea what you're talking about, sooking because you can't do it.
It's broken, because it's not intended to work that way. It's a bug. Noone is going to "learn" a "mechanic" that's not just abusing a bug (so technically breaking ToS), but is also insanely stupid. I mean, if constantly jumping around, strafing and looking around for no reason at all, all at the same time is not stupid, then I really don't know what else to say...
Doing something like that doesn't bring satisfaction, it's just plain annoying. You would only "enjoy" getting the the undeserved edge to the point before everyone starts doing it and it becomes mandatory.
If moving always fast while healing was intended, then the devs can just increase movement speed while healing. But of course, that's not the case. Healing is a tactical maneuver and it has to have downsides and require some planning.
If bhop dies I'll stop playing this. What apex lacked for me was some fun movement mechanics until i realised u could do this. And if its hidden - strap on a tutorial and there we go. Strafejumping and aircontronl in Quake was a bug initially but it came to define the series and spawned so many race maps and such. Let the game have character. I'm sure most of the people that have to try to do it and they fail often wish for it to be removed,however that doesn't mean the devs should appeal to people who whine of difficult game mechanics in a competetive (theres tournaments, so yeah I guess competetive) shooter.
Its really not that hard and its the most fun thing to do in game. At least for me.If removing bhop healing, then provide more lenience on bhop fighting or movement itself. More airaccell maybe.

I'm a big quake fan. But in that game people are strafe jumping didn't undermine an intended nerf in place already. Like intended slower movement when healing. ALso in games like quake its the basic form of common movement. Its constantly being done.
In apex legends, the only time people are bhopping is when healing. They aren't bhopping as movment all over the map. The faster way to move is slide hopping, which was intended. You can't even call it bhopping since noone bhops in this game otherwise. It should be called "Heal Hopping"...
- Bhopping is not a bug its been pretty much built into all game using the source engine
