On water, on walls. Super speed has many possibilities. :)

    It's a great idea, but not as easy as you might think. The physics engine isn't set up to handle it, and would have to be significantly rebuilt to allow it.

    We've barely got a big enough team to add any noticeable amount of new content; we definitely don't have a big enough team to rebuild the game from the ground up.

    Water is not given its own geo in CO so it would not be possible to run on. It is simply a horizon line with a tag for animation.

    Also it's been stated that the Cryptic Engine is not designed for movement along the Z axis that responds to "walls".

    This is kind of a good point... where in the game would there be a point to running on water?

    There's one lake in Canada, one in Monster Island. And you can run MC/MI/VB shore lines.
