PS3 auto run feature.

[BLaCKnBLu3B3RRY]

hey. you can just make the auto-run function like the XHB does while in Mixed mode. i mean like in Mixed if you tap L2/R2 the XHB stays toggled. and it responds well when determining if the player tapped or is holding the button. it works great.

so like maybe if auto-run was the same. auto-run WON'T activate if you holding L1. it should be able to tell if the player is holding or just a tap for auto-run just the same way the XHB does. and this would fix auto-run issue when trying to hide the UI with L1+Select. and same with screen shots at L1+Start.

heck with the screen shots if you are moving. there is a pause for the capture on the PS3 to get the screen shot. so you have to wait for the screen shot to finish before you could even turn off auto-run.

it's seems simple and like it would work. maybe?

What you have said is the way it suppose to be, but since 2.1 it no longer works. It is set to tap to auto-run, hold to zoom camera. The problem is, is that it no longer works like this, and the system thinks you are doing both all of the time. If you piss with the L1 button at all to zoom in/out while moving, there is a pretty good chance you will activate the auto-run. Prior to 2.1, the system worked fine (kinda, it still would activate sometimes, but now it's all the time).

It was working perfectly Fine pre 2.1, they just need to figured wtf they changed.

I just hope they realize it isn't just PS3, it is all Game Pads, even PC.

Good to know was a bug I knew there was somehting wrong with auto run. Yes we need this fix ASAP.

well the camera issue wasn't there before 2.1. but it most certainly still wasn't working fine. when trying to to hide the UI with L1+Select or trying to take a screen shot with L1+Start while moving at the same time you would enable auto-run.

so something to just detect when a player simply taps for auto-run. and when a player is pressing down for alternate function. something like the way the XHB detects user input while in Mixed mode would be good i think. though i am no expert. ^_^


either way i am sure what ever solution they come up with will fix all issues with auto-run.

I didn't realize there was an auto-run button, I thought it was due to the connection never rising above "Good" since the patch - and once down to "Poor" (I used to have an "Excellent" connection 85-90% of the time before the data center change).

I didnt know there was an auto run either i have been wonder what caused this but never had the time to come on the forums and see if anyone else was having this issue

[Millani_Rayne]

I can't believe that this wasn't fixed in the patch today, having control of your character is a fundamental requirement.
This needs to be a high priority and should be fixed ASAP, as it's ruining the game for some people.
Please fix this fast SE.

For those having an issue with auto run,I feel your pain on this one but I have found that the standard movement controls let's me make sure that legacy doesn't throw me over a mountain side to my most uncertain doom, that is if you are comfortable strafing away from harm rather than holding down to instantly turn around
