That would be miserable having people run like the wind.

"Run like the wind" sounds like you're under the impression that the speed will be extreme.

If that's the case, I assure you that it's only a slight increase.
If you haven't checked out the new spar arena in the middle, featured in this video, you should at least give it a shot. The speed in this level is only a slight increase, but just enough to make the fight more challenging and enjoyable.

I'm in the middle of studying for an exam, so I just hopped in quickly and sparred somebody with a seemingly decent rate. Thanks to Ghost Magus for participating.

 

Meph is cool furniture boy.  

Haha look at me in the video D:

Would introducing a speed buff mean a nerf of weapons?  

This would be a great addition to era. Hope it gets added sooner than later.

Nou!!!!!  

Great idea!  

Good idea but i dont think increase the melee damage is good...  

I like the idea

if everyone is able to do it then i am sure it would be just like a speed boost for everyone. only takes 15 minutes for everyone to get it. A speed boost is what era needs I hate running slow

then use a skateboard

oh the middle spar room huh? thats not even close to as bad as the blue pk thing. but im perfectly fine with the speed in game. besides i dont want people to be able to run away from bullets easier.

also if your complaining about running slow. then use a skateboard.  

Run for 15 mins---> 30 Mins speed buff
Pump for 15 mins--> +1 melee damage.

To add on to weight lifting
Upgrade your weights with
15 Iron--> Iron weights--> instead of 15 mins--> 14-13 mins
17 Silver--> Silver weights-->Instead of 15 mins-->14-13 mins
20 Diamond-->Diamond weights-->instead of 15 mins-->6-8 mins

To add on to running:
Y x Material A OR Y graalats= 14 mins not 15
Y x Material B OR Y graalats = 12 mins not 15
" " "

Y= an amount

Honestly I think running for 15 minutes should give you a speed boost for 24 hours. A week of speed boost is a pretty long time.

the time would be way to much... players would just abuse that, the gym would be better if 3 weeks of training u get ur melee to be buffed up 1 damage or if u would make the melee faster for the rest of the week.
That was my personal opinion, i also agree with much more opinions for other users.

Not at all- as I demonstrated with my Uzi in the video, the increased walk speed gives bullet dodging more of an influence on the fight, and allows skill to do the talking, rather than guns.

Nerfing them would be less necessary than with the current walk speed.

They're still slower than the bullet projectile, It's just making the game more competitive by adding the ability to 'weave' between smaller bullet gaps.

Oh, increasing the walk speed isn't to provide a quicker means of transportation- it's to enhance gameplay during battles, and make fighting more interesting.  

Also not to mention this helps out ipod players even more, with a faster movement speed you would have the ability to dodge faster with a smaller screen which means you dont need as much time or screen to dodge.  

Thank God for this finally happening.

I support your statement, rep+ to you.
