    Saw some footage on a feed, today. I hadn't thought that was the normal effect; Thought it was related to a boost or spell or gear, or something.

    Aye - it doesn't seem like that wind-drag effect would be needed, if it's the case that it's just the normal effect for running.

    To be exact, it is not for "running" but "sprinting" (shift while running)

    but yes... a friend watched me play and he really disliked also

    Agreed. I feel it’s totally unnecessary. I still think they could tone down a lot of the particle effects in general.

    Yeah, it's from sprinting and it's super annoying. At least give us a toggle or something to check [off] if we don't want to use it.

    I call it The Star Trek Effect or Lightspeed for short.

    I also dislike the effect.

    Yea definitely is a horrible effect. We don't need one to know we're moving faster

    Again, it was helpful when we did not have infinite Sprint.
    And infinite Sprint was only added July 9.
    It's Alpha One. There's a couple new threads about this every week, so I'm sure the devs are aware of the complaint.
    We'll see if they change it for Alpha Two.

    The particle effects are still a placeholder for Alpha, @Bigdawg … it’s by all means not a finished product.

    I have to say that I like the effect. I just don't like it for sprinting. If there was a charge ability that magically propels you forward it would be pretty cool to look like this. For sprinting it's overly dramatic.
