    SkillUp Can Go To Hell, Do Not Remove Sprint Reload

    This is just taking it too far. I do this all the time when I'm running away from some adds, or something. I don't even play pvp in Division and I know this is a ridiculous idea. I've even sprinted and reloaded a weapon IN REAL LIFE. You are just taking the fun out of the game with this.

    Roll cool down...ok. Body/headshot damage...whatever. Not being able to run and reload is removing an action element that adds fun and flavor to the game. This is not a mechanic that adds or takes away from pvp.

    Please do not listen to SkillUp on this one.

    Agree things like this just frustrate players and add nothing to the game.

    it will make one consider getting into cover more to reload then just running and gunning with hip fire down the middle of the street with no care in the world and then rollrollrollrollrollrollroll...one can handle doing a slow trott to reload now or hell even role play walk and reload like a true PKer

    Not really a fan of any Youtuber but like you and me they have the right to voice an opinion, if Massive put it in the game it must be for a good reason, maybe its to make use of cover more? Maybe to help with time to kill? Just remember that they also have community developers watching the forums and I'm pretty sure they topic feedback get to the developers too. Also 1.6 & The last stand hasn't even made the PTS and the amount of negativity in the forum is outstanding. Lets wait and see whats in store with 1.6, even if they removed sprint reload please wait and see how it works with all the other new tweaks they have made, it may even make the game better who knows? Be positive

    This will make rogue marathons more annoying.

    Spoken like someone who doesn't play a whole lot of PvP. There aren't many PvP games that let you do this and I was surprised to see it in The Division. Its an absolute benefit to be able to move quickly and reload at the same time. This is usually a choice you are forced to make, requiring you to be very tactical about when you shoot, move and/or take cover.

    This might play out a little different in the DZ where half the time PvP means running after someone from DZ 1 to DZ 6. But for PvP in general, reloading while sprinting is pretty rare for a reason.

    it's to give a chance to the chased ones
    you can still run but not sprint, it's not the end of the World
