some people get lost from so much what is going on , constantly staying in coherency following the team.. pressing in L3 in all the time might get annoying, once they add that option you might never look back , but I only speak for myself when I said I love and always prefer that option in the game . It’s a choice and it’s always good to have choices in life rather than to be stuck without any .
So if Im understanding correctly you DONT want what @Headhunter said, which is using the analog feature to walk with half push and run with full push, you want run always on?
If thats the case then that wouldnt work because running cancels many actions in the game. As soon as you moved you would stop attacking or shooting which is not really viable. You need to be able to walk. Its completely necessary in Darktide.
The best you could get is what @Headhunter suggested and this would be a good middle ground for you. You could still both run and walk without clicking the thumbstick

Don’t worry I know what I’m doing , and I am Perfectly aware of that and I manage trust me . please don’t decide for me . Like I’ve said It’s an option If it doesn’t work for you then don’t use it .
Option Meaning : one thing that can be chosen from a set of possibilities, or the freedom to make a choice
I know how everything works and what not , I’m just saying I want to push forward and sprint without pressing the stick L3 in, that’s all . Like I said I manage . it’s not that deep , On PC Keyboard It’s a different story , I don’t own a PC so I don’t really know what is going on over there . sorry .
That’s where you’re wrong
This is the SAME story. We have to push a key the entire mission… if we want to run. And you always want to run.
I also want autosprint… cause the option is not there also for PC players. You have to rely on mods to get it.
Hope everyone get that damn Auto Sprint Option . console and PC, sorry for the misunderstanding .
Im not deciding for you friend, Im telling you my opinion. You say you manage yet you dont, because you cannot currently do this in Darktide so how exactly do you manage something that you cannot currently do?
You wouldnt be able to shoot or melee when moving forwards at all unless sliding and even then your melee options would become very limited when sliding.
I think if you got what you wanted you would quickly realise that it doesnt work in practice and @Headhunter actually has a more viable option for what you require.
I guess I’ll just put this here in case someone decides to search for solution for PC version, if that’s the function they’re after.
There are a sprint mods on nexusmods if search “sprint”
Or:
Download version 2
In Darktide enable Hold to sprint.
Script below to turn Left shift into toggle for holding shift.
LShift::
{
static toggle := 0
Send("{Blind}{LShift " ((toggle := !toggle) ? "down" : "up") "}")
}
I’ve tested it and it works to continously hold, even after any actions i.e. constant sliding or falling to a lower ground. It holds.
I’ll it’s not about the combat … I just want push the left stick forward and sprint , when it come to combat I’ll stop . that’s all why are trying to make it so complicated .
sorry I’m on console . hope pc players find this helpful.
Combat and movement in Darktide are intrinsically linked though. That you will stop in combat is my exact issue with what you want. In Darktide stopping is rarely a good idea.
Im not trying to complicate things and sorry if Im giving that impression, I just dont think you will operate effectively in game when moving forward will cancel many of your actions.
I guess if you never plan to play above Malice or Heresy its probably fine tbh. But on Damnation and above there is no way you could survive with either stopping and only moving/dodging side to side or backwards to attack or sliding forwards, I think it would nerf your ability to operate properly in the game.
I completely understand why you want it. I play on PC exclusively with a controller and have also played for a couple hundred hours on the PS5 too and I agree that clicking the L3 has issues like it can hurt, its fiddly especially for run sliding and it wears the pad out faster.
I just dont think what you want is viable and a solution that would work specifically with Darktide is using the analog sticks gradient to change between walk and run.
I could be wrong ofc.
look man, If I fail and it won’t work then it’s on me . that’s all . it’s just an option to chose . i want to have that choice ,

I can respect that.

Alternatively to reduce strain on using L3 button and just reserve it for something else less used. i.e. ability activation or blitz.
Even if the game doesn’t let you can still remap buttons outside of it
Xbox Accessories app, PS5 accessibility or I’m sure steam can too with ps5 controller let you swap button functions around. i.e. you could have one of the top trigger buttons as sprint.
You can create profiles to switch back and forth from default too.
I know, I Know … but then that is still the press problem, I just want push it foward , it’s better for me . but thanks for the advice .
