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.

I'm always astonished at some people's mentality that because you can do something that's cheating, then technically it's not cheating because you can do it...

I can cheat and it's your problem for not wanting to cheat also! It shouldn't stop me from trying to get an advantage over others by exploiting the game.

Really bizarre morals some people have in multi player games. Absolutely no thought for fellow players. From abusing mechanics, cheating on pc to quitting because things are not going your way...

It was a bug two and a half decades ago but players and developers embraced it now its a skill.

With that said I don't really care either way simply because in this game it has such a small impact it really is a non-issue IMO but as someone who thoroughly enjoys Quake I'm all for more skill based movement in games.

  I seriously can't imagine having it in the game was an oversight by Respawn. They realized they were using the source engine, they had to have known about bhopping. I mean just look at Titanfall (some of you are forgetting that game even exists which is sad). The movement is very free in that game and there is even a Quake like obstacle course to test who can go the fastest. Bhopping, double jumping, wall running etc. I love slide hopping. If they remove it I'll probably end up quitting the game. Movement based mechanics are my thing and it's sad that people are so hung up on games feeling slow, clunky and "realistic".
  
  EDIT: Wow, apparently it actually was an oversight and they might actually remove it. Wow....that is seriously depressing.

    The fluid movement is nice but I think it's the macro part that's pissing people off. Personally I think it's stupid, the macros. Like people who use them to use a full auto weapon as a single shot. In my eyes it's the same as cheating. The weapon is designed to be fully automatic with recoil. Yes it hits hard or hard-ish but the recoil is where it's balanced. If you can control it full barrage then you deserve to melt people, but if you use a macro to abuse it in a way that wasn't intended? I won't say they should be banned but something should definitely be done about it. If the weapon was intended to be single shot the select fire receiver would be available to it. Thankfully none of the full auto weapons have a drastic damage difference from other weapons but that could change with time.

  As a fellow Quaker, I would feel gutted if they removed it. Its so fun.

  This. Good old FPS gamers will understand. I think this is a debate we must have. I personaly feel like it doesn't make much of a difference since you can just start sliding and heal at the same time. It basicly gives about the same advantage.
  I'd say, since it's a common and old mechanic, there is no point in removing it. No one is frustrated by someone BHoping in the game! Maybe it wasn't thought of when the game was released, but it shouldn't be considered a good argument.
  It's all about the ingame balance and general experience.
