Re: Sprint bug
There's this report here about the same issue: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/Not-able-to-sprint-as-a-Hero/m-p/8010988
@HomerSpinson It's a shame, I know, but this is the pace of things around here, anything takes at least a month to be mentioned or addressed, unless in a very few and rare occasions.
And as I mentioned on that report, I'll bring it here for clarification: There are 3 sprint BUGs that I know of:
1 - (supposedly fixed) Han can get stuck in Sharpshooter's stance, which doesn't allow him to enter sprint mode, and he walks even slower then normally. Using Sharpshooter again fixes the issue;
2 - Palpatine's Dark Aura can cause you to sprint very slowly, like if you were walking or worse. A Day 1 BUG never solved. This is the BUG you mentioned @HomerSpinson , and thanks for providing a method to get rid of it besides dying/respawning, I didnt know that being affected by Dark Aura again would solve the issue. I have a GIF showing this BUG:
3 - You may get your sprint totally disabled. I have no idea what causes this BUG, but this is another of the Day 1 BUGs never solved. I shall have some time to search for the footage I have on this BUG later today and for the entire day tomorrow, so I hope I can find it. The worst about this BUG is that it persists between matches, but I don't remember if it also persists between maps, or even modes. Leaving the application and coming back does solve it. It's a very rare BUG, I experienced it just a couple of times since launch, and I never got to identify what might be its cause. I believe this is the BUG being reproted in both this report and in the one I linked.
