When doing the "Crouch Run" can you control which way to go?

[Sci0n]

or is it just in a straight line?

I meant the Roddy Run

[UnrealWars]

You get to turn when you are doing the roddie run

[Sci0n]

You get to turn when you are doing the roddie run

thank you, i thought you could move slightly left or right, but that was it.

[Spector07]

I have a question about roadie run too I heard somewhere u can shoot and run at the same time but just not too well can anyone confirm this for me

[GearsManiac123]

im pretty sure that you use the Left Analog Stick to control which way to run. and you can go as far left and right as you want!:)

[elite94]

the roddie run is gonna kick ***, I'm gonna be using alot tho! (run..,Run...,RUn...,RUN,RUN!!!!!!!! RUN LIKE HE*L, AHHHH!!!)

I think you might be getting confused. You can stand still which will cause your crosshair to appear, and shoot that way. Or you can walk and shoot but your crosshair wont be visible and your aim might be off.

You cant shoot at all during a rodie run.

[Uday23]

u can turn any way u want, but it is harder to control and the camera is shaky, its mainly to go straight

Thats not true, you can shoot will you Rodie Run. But the crosshair isn't there and because of the motion blur aiming is seriously hard.

[GearsManiac123]

i've never heard about shooting while Roadie Running.:confused: can anyone actually confirm? (someone from EPIC;) )

[Uday23]

i've never heard about shooting while Roadie Running.:confused: can anyone actually confirm? (someone from EPIC;) )

im almost certain u Can NOT shoot while in the rodie run, we have not seen it and EPIC hasnt said anything about it, there would be no point to shoot anyways and the roadie run is main to get to a cover point fast, its not ment for offense.......

[GearsManiac123]

yea i know, i also am certain that you cannot shoot while Roadie Running, but i saw a couple of people who thought that they were right when they said that you could shoot while roadie running. so i just wanted to see what everyone was thinking.:)

[Flaming Hornets]

if it will help i will try and find the interview that i heard it in. Cliffy said it, i think on G4, but ill check into it

[Uday23]

if it will help i will try and find the interview that i heard it in. Cliffy said it, i think on G4, but ill check into it

yeah try to find the video, b/c im 99% sure u can't shoot while roadie running, like in some games when u sprint/run u have to hold ur gun with both hands and pull it towards ur chest, so u can run easier,thats what the roadie run is, u hold ur gun close to ur body, crouch kind of, and run, usually away from things:)

i just watched some videos of the roadie run, and u can barely even see where ur going, let alone shoot/aim ur gun

[Uday23]

here is something from a GoW article

The nickname "roadie" comes from the stance of running around while keeping your head down, much like a band roadie swapping out a band's guitars onstage. This move is quite useful, as it not only speeds up your character when moving from cover to cover, but it also makes you a smaller target that's more difficult to hit.

not only do u run franticly with ur gun to ur chest but u also have ur head down to keep from being shot, the roadie run is mainly a way to get out of trouble, and its the fastest way to get around, i highly doubt u can shoot, and why would u GoW is all about stopping and poping, its not a (roadie) run and gun, we should all know that by now, if ur crosshairs dont show up when ur walking and it is almost pointless to shoot b/c ur so inaccurate (with out going into aim mode) then why would someone want randomly flail there gun around while roadie running, w/e im not a 100% sure, but i am almost certain u can't shoot while roadie running

[Flaming Hornets]

Im having some trouble find the rigth interview, as Cliffy getsaround and has done loads. If someone from Epic drops by can you please confirm this so i can stop this crazy search.

[Uday23]

im still pretty sure u can't shoot, lol, keep searching Flaming hornets, thanks:)

[ban381]

I actually think I read that you cant shoot while roadie running. And if you even look at the animation, it doesnt look like its a position your character can shoot from.

[Koric101]

I'm with uday and the rest. I don't think you can. Would be retarded with the camera like that. don't get me wrong. I like the roadie run, u just can't shoot.

[Uday23]

yep, thats what im thinking, thats why i was interested when F. hornets said he thought u could shoot, btw can u find that article? thanks

[Zoso Fan]

I dont think you can... but either way, roadie running kicks ass!

[UnrealWars]

I am almost positive that you can not shoot while roadie running. Its almost impossible to shoot with the camera they give you while you are roadie running.

[Chainsaw Guardian]

Well I haven't seen any videos of someone shooting while roadie running. The camera is too shaky to aim anyways.

I think if you can't shoot it would help out with balance more. If you can shoot while roadie running then everyone would run around like a bunch of crack heads shooting thier guns randomly while roadie running.

[Spector07]

If I remember right CliffB said you could roadie run and shoot at the same time and the interview is not writen if I can find I give it to you guys, also I think it would fit in perfectly cuz you cant aim worth a damn and you never know you might want to charge someone ever now and again.

[The Evil Hat]

If I remember right CliffB said you could roadie run and shoot at the same time and the interview is not writen if I can find I give it to you guys, also I think it would fit in perfectly cuz you cant aim worth a damn and you never know you might want to charge someone ever now and again.
i think so too and for the original question why would you not be able to turn? maybe very little but absoltuly no ability to turn id be really weird

[Uday23]

well if u cant aim whats the point, o well, please find the interview, thanks:)

[Uday23]

u can turn a lil bit, but when in the roadie run u mainly want to go some what straight, b/c its hard to manuever and turn

[The Evil Hat]

u can turn a lil bit, but when in the roadie run u mainly want to go some what straight, b/c its hard to manuever and turn
yeah but with absolutly no ability to turn id look funny like your running at a wall and cant turn away and ram into it just saying theres probly going to be a little turn at least

[UnrealWars]

u can turn a lil bit, but when in the roadie run u mainly want to go some what straight, b/c its hard to manuever and turn

I can see it know, people trying to do 90 degree angles while roading running. That is completely realistic!:D

[Uday23]

yeah but with absolutly no ability to turn id look funny like your running at a wall and cant turn away and ram into it just saying theres probly going to be a little turn at least

yeah its mainly to go straight but u can turn a lil bit, its just hard to control urself b/c ur running like a crazy guy, but yes u can turn

BTW i just want to say(so i dont look like an A** later if Specator and Flaming Hornets are right), my bad if u guys are right about being about to shoot while roadie running, i still think u can't but if u can then i give u guys props, lol, i just want everyone to know that i before we know the official truth:) :D

[Uday23]

i am pretty sure that u can't shoot while roadie running, but maybe u can, Cliffy can u help?!?!

[MacheteMan7]

I think you can but it's kind of like blindfiring, in that you can't aim well and it is very inaccurate

[Uday23]

I think you can but it's kind of like blindfiring, in that you can't aim well and it is very inaccurate

o well its not really a big deal to me, b/c it something that will rarely be used, and its pretty pointless, i just hope someone from EPIC confirms it

[Spector07]

Well I am tired of looking for it but if you r looking for it, its in some kind of podcast form and it talks about roadie run about half way though its about 40 minutes long

[Uday23]

Well I am tired of looking for it but if you r looking for it, its in some kind of podcast form and it talks about roadie run about half way though its about 40 minutes long

so like 20min into the podcast, ill try to find it

EDIT: i found the one from OXM and that was about 40 min long and it didnt say anything about the roadie run, o well i guess we will just have to wait and see

[Spector07]

you know I dont care as long as I get to tear ass across a battlefield I'll be fine.

[Uday23]

you know I dont care as long as I get to tear ass across a battlefield I'll be fine.

u said it man, lol, i dont care, we will eventually find out anyways

[Reconciliation]

Ditto.

Though in all honesty, personally I dont think you can shoot during the roadie run. And im pretty sure you can turn a little but that is about it, just for my two cents :D

[MonkeyKnuckle]

i was watching this video and about 10mins in he turns while doing the run(not much though)

http://www.xbox360cheats.com/media/113477188612.wmv

[Chainsaw Guardian]

I just watched that video. You can turn while roadie running. The only question now is can you shoot?

[Flaming Hornets]

so like 20min into the podcast, ill try to find it

EDIT: i found the one from OXM and that was about 40 min long and it didnt say anything about the roadie run, o well i guess we will just have to wait and see

Its not as recent as the OXM podcast. From what i remember it was from an early interview, just after the XO5 preview.

thats cool, dont worry about it:)

[CliffyB]

i am pretty sure that u can't shoot while roadie running, but maybe u can, Cliffy can u help?!?!

No, if you shot while RRing you'd probably shoot yourself in the face.

[FortuneWookie]

No, if you shot while RRing you'd probably shoot yourself in the face.

lol, ok it makes sense, cuz the roadie run is for like running out of the way fast or running to cover, not to shoot

[Soul]

No, if you shot while RRing you'd probably shoot yourself in the face.

Haha! That would be hilarious!

[Uday23]

No, if you shot while RRing you'd probably shoot yourself in the face.

ooooo ya, i was right! thanks cliffy!

in ur face flaming hornets! lol

[RIGOR_MORTIS]

I bet that running will be a good tactic to get in close to people for a chainsaw hit! I'll call it the ol' run 'n buzz followed by the backhanded rizzo!

[Soul]

Do remember they can wait for you and chainsaw you when you get there, or they can pop you off while your running to them. :D

[psyco blade]

I have a question about roadie run too I heard somewhere u can shoot and run at the same time but just not too well can anyone confirm this for me
are you talking about when you are sprinting beacouse when you sprin the screen will start shaking and it is almos probably impossible to shoot anyone let alone kill em

[Uday23]

are you talking about when you are sprinting beacouse when you sprin the screen will start shaking and it is almos probably impossible to shoot anyone let alone kill em

dont worry about it, me and Flaming Hornets kept arguing about this, b/c he thought you could shoot while RR, and i knew u couldnt, and then Cliffy came to our rescue(above somewere) and proved me right(my sig)!

[Soul]

Uh, congradulations on being a bigger fan boy? (everyone knows you are...) :p

[Uday23]

Uh, congradulations on being a bigger fan boy? (everyone knows you are...) :p

lol, true, but this debate between me and F.H. has been going on before u time(at this forum), and i win, ahahahahah!, lol :D

[NyR Kil0WaTTs]

i heard it somewhere that you cant shoot will running like that.

[psyco blade]

i think you can shoot while moving regurly but not when your sorinting and when you are moving and shooting it is horrible i mean horrible accuracy.

[MacheteMan7]

I have another question for Cliffy or any other mods regarding the roadie run. Can you rev the chainsaw while you are running? I would imagine not because you would probly get a saw to the face but i was just wondering.
