Re: Moving and clicking on people is nigh impossible.

I enjoyed playing security officer when running speed was lower. Now it's impossible to be "robust" again with 237 ms average ping, greetings from Europe.

Slow the running speed the fuck down to solve OP's problem and so that other people than from USA can play a Sec job too.
