If a similar post has already been made, I appologize for this one. I just cannot find it.
When I first started playing back in February, you could double-tap the left or right arrow key to jump out of the way when a grenade is thrown in your direction (or a rock if you are battling Gorn). I have noticed, over the past few weeks, that this no longer works. Now when I double-click the left and right arrows, my toon merely pivots. So, to clear a lobbed object, I have to pivot then jump forward.
What patch changed this? And why in God's name did they do that? I find it harder to avoid objects thrown at me now when I used to laterally jump out of the way.
I can't be the only one who has noticed this change...
This never happened when I was leveling up my RA5 Tac Off.
It started about 2 weeks ago with my new CDR Vulcan Sci Off toon.
Maybe I entered an odd string of keys when I was trying to type a message to someone without clicking in the little box. I suppose anything is possible.
Try the strafe left / right keys (default Q and E) instead of the movement keys. I wonder if the default keymapping moved because my wife and I noticed this too. I just assumed I had forgotten where they were.
