What do you all think, about this?

Personally, I didn't find Mackay's ADS thing nearly as annoying as his grappling hook or Sundance flying all over the damn place. Whoever thought those two abilities up should be hung by their toes and fed Ex-Lax 👿 (I'm kidding by the way forum mods!)

@Ironhead841Good, very good, and this is coming from someone who mains him. He's also my most used specialist (I've T1ed every specialist expect for a couple so I'm not one of those sad players that only uses him and constantly bounces around like a clown - which is another great reason for it to be tweeked).Got zero issue with with his grappling hook (and ads speed when ziplining) or sundance's flight suit, they work great but also have their faults, it's the fact that he's the only character with clearly better movement speed that makes him an ideal choice over others. Getting this toned downed and everyone else's ads speed slightly adjusted will balance things out. Like someone mentioned above, making him have a quicker reload speed to compensate would be nice. Just hope the devs don't bungle something up in the process (they will lol).I also can't wait for Irish to have his trait switched to Cache Point. At the moment, he's the only specialist that can passively acquire armor. As great as it has been, when this is gone the only way for anyone to have armor is by actually selecting it as a gadget to choose. Another balanced change I'm looking forward to.

You can be just as twitchy with any Specialist. I’m still convinced that most of the people complaining about him don’t understand how his movement buff even works. I like the changes. Hopefully they don’t go too far with adjusting him. The global increase is great! Really looking forward to that. I totally agree with his grapple and Sundance flying around being obnoxious. I’d love for both of their abilities to be removed. His grapple is fun, but doesn’t really fit the game. Sundance just looks ridiculous flying around. Seems like the game is progressing in the right direction.

@RaginSam all players should have equal movement mechanics when it comes to gun play

A little dramatic lol.
Not in the slightest my good sir
Anything that allows someone to rapidly displace their hitbox in a game with bullet travel time and various types of latency is absolutely giving a significant advantage to those who know how to use it.
I will admit that such shenanigans make the gameplay more flashy and varied. But there are not enough penalties to the recoil control and spread to offset the benefits of such actions. Because of that everyone who wants to play seriously has to learn to do these things or be at a disadvantage.
I am also ADADADing in response to the meta but the wildlife photography enthusiast in me is complaining that nobody can take a steady aim while moving like that with a DSLR camera, even more so with a gun that recoils.
ADADADing is one thing, but sliding is...just breaking things. It makes one move so fast that one may be shooting an afterimage that is lagging behind the actual hitbox of the target.
