Possible speed hacking in Seal Rock

Running/Sprinting backwards is also known as moonwalking, its using auto facetarget to face the selected enemy while still having full freedom of movement in any direction

Its also achievable manually using the ingame macro system, it isnt hacking

They're still moving with (faster) sprint speed without the sprint buff though from what they are saying?

I've seen this also. A WAR from Adamantoise was undeniably doing the same. We were getting spawn camped by Adder at the time, so I alerted the alliance to take a look at this specific WAR (marked him), and about half the alliance agreed we were watching something extremely fishy.

If I get a video of it, I'll be sure to share, because I'm sure I'll run into it again.

Based on the description, I'd say that it's still shady.

I play on Ps4, so I don't know what kind of mumbo jumbo you keyboard and mouse people are capable of, but facetarget substantially nerfs your movement speed on Ps4. Moving at the same speed as normal, let alone sprint speed or greater, would be impossible without some kind of mod. That's not to say that it is not possible of for PC gamers and that it's some kind of cheat, mind you, but Even if it's not, SE should look into it. The fact that this kind of movement would be utterly impossible cross platform in a cross platform game would indicate that they might need to balance something.

I'm sure PC gamers (proud owners of the title: Original MMO'ers) hate the idea of balancing gameplay to accommodate for different control schematics, but SE made the game available cross platform, and console gamers already have to work around some pretty gimpy controls. Movement, at least, should be an equal footing thing between the platforms.
