There is a quazi glitch, for people that have macro-able mice or keyboards. It allows you to gain the speed boost from sliding, without actually sliding.

I have a Corsair gaming mouse and programmed one of the side buttons to hit and immediately release LCTRL (was for another game, discovered by accident here) LCTRL being crouch in a typical pc setup.

If you are sprinting you can hit this and it will give you the speed boost of sliding, but you will stay up and fully able to control your movements. Very handy. This can also be used mid-air for a speed boost (and even a direction change, if you turn your mouse before hitting it) Can give you a speed boost (flip) while aiming, without droping your aim. And it can also be used to easily activate the infinite wall-run trick.

It does require proper timing to get the full effect, however, much like regular sliding. For a full out run, you can normally hit it every 2 seconds or so, for maximum effect.

It can even be used to extend a regular slide's momentum, and even change direction (like mid-air) For instance, if you are landing from a jumping-kick and hold it on the ground you normally slide with whatever momentum you may have had from the jump. BUT if you hit the macro button at the precise moment you hit the ground (timing is key), while continuing to hold crouch like normal, you get a new boost as if you just did a whole new running-slide. WITHOUT using any extra stamina, and without breaking your natural sliding motion (aka doesnt interupt reloading)

If you get really good with this, its pretty easy to catch up, and even pass rushing lokies and Rhinos (even with their weapon-copters) while still using slower frames like Vauban and Trinity. Or you can use a Loki and just rush like a bat out of hell. The choice is yours.

Enjoy :)
