What the heck is auto strafe?

For auto strafe the guy seems to turn at the appropriate time (for the most part) and for auto sprint it just seems more realistic (IMO).

How is it more realistic to have your guys always sprinting all over the place?

They're not always sprinting all over the place. Thats your fault if he is.

Well when you play on AA and up it's automatically turned off!

What's supposed to happen is the guy automatically follows his acceleration curve based on his ratings (like in real life) instead of just having a "turbo" boost in reserve.

Truth..same with auto strafe.

A more agile player is going to make the turn from strafe, to sprint, much more quickly.

I switched to auto sprint/auto strafe and havent looked back. Really makes me more accoutnable for my defender.

I played 1 game with auto strafe off, just for old times sake, and almost felt like I was cheating.
