Why can people run at regular speed even while dragging a body?
Why can people run at regular speed while dragging a conscious, although cuffed person that however is certainly struggling all while beating it?
More often than not I have been killed, not through cunning, but by the sheer ridiculousness of being dragged in broad daylight through the hallways while being beaten to death, security being unable to save me because they run at the same speed as my captor. This if anything also increases the potency of stun-based combat, because a mere stun and cuffs are enough to kill you even with people around that could help you, because you'll be long dead or even spaced if they ever should capture the culprit.
Perhaps utilizing beds or chairs with wheels could neutralize the dragging slowdown?
I suspect there may be some meta reason for this, but regardless I felt like sharing my thought.

Re: Dragging speed
Because people HATE going slow. If you think Stun-N-Run is bad, consider that speed used to be so high you could outrun the taser bolts sec was firing after you.Pettyrelik wrote:Why can people run at regular speed even while dragging a body?

There is a lot of very bizarre nonsense being talked on this forum. I shall now remain silent and logoff until my points are vindicated.

Just came here to say: screech, retards. Screech and writhe like the worms you are. Your pathetic little cries will keep echoing around for a while before quietting down. There is one great outcome from this: I rised up the blood pressure of some of you shitheads and lowered your lifespan. I'm honestly tempted to do this more often just to see you screech and writhe more, but that wouldn't be cool of me. So come on haters, show me some more of your high blood pressure please.![]()

Re: Dragging speed
You do realise slowing down dragging would also fuck with people trying to help you?
Every medic when you are crit.
Anyone when you are asleep.
Your trip to genetics when you are dead.
Literally making stun combat more supreme because no one will drag your twitching ass because it is basically a death sentence.
