the Cane card description states (lvl 3) +20% movement speed. In reality it is more than 200% speed increase. Try it, something is wrong (unless Compass speed nowadays are supposed to be like 100 km/h).
Hello @Full_pick, with the Ezekiel's Cane at level 3 (20% increase to basic speed) means that the Free Roam speed is 36km/h. Please remember that by car you have to be careful with buildings, other people, etc. In-game you can go in a straight line, which makes it feel faster.
It feels like supercharged and in our team we have different opinions about that:
"The younger generations"-opinion: "Great, the faster the better" (this is my opinion too)
"The older generations"-opinion: "Where is the break?
As there is no way to make both happy (decrease the speed, increase the speed..), there is (in my opinion) only one solution: A "break" or a regulator where you can chose if you want to drive like a turtle or drive like a super fast rabbit :-)
Omg are you kidding me?? You change the speed after 1 or 2 people complain?? The whole community desperately needs an epic/leg fix and this is what you do after literally a week!!! And this is why we are losing good players. Smdh
Absolutely disagree with the change that has been made, i worked on getting this card upgraded based on the speeds i was getting, if it was going to be dropped i wouldn't of bothered, the break is when you click the switch that stops you free roaming, its not hard to click so that you stop. I want my cane levelled back to 1 and my coins back as its the same speed now as it used to be without the upgrade. very disappointed with this change.
The cane was great with the former significant extra speed. We all spent a lot of ressources energy and time to get the cards and upgrade them. I’m very disappointed by this late change that basically makes it useless and expect it to be reverted. this perk is exactly what your player base needs during the pandemic. Makes it easy to roam around safely and flare good spots. please keep it fast
So let me get this straight... Just because a handful of players don't know how to use their shiny new card, the entire players community gets negatively affected?!?! Where is the fairness in that? As Bob stated above, which I guess the "older generation" wasn't aware of Fumpi, is that you hit the stop/pause button so you can do your 360 view of any given area. once you are done viewing then you hit that button again and resume your journey. The card was not "supercharged". It becomes more powerful, as with every other single card in the game, when you keep leveling it up. If it doesn't do that then what would be the point to upgrade any cards? I would really like to know what NG was thinking when they decided to reduce the speeding how they justified it.
This was a horrible decision! It's a total waste now. It doesnt even go faster at all anymore. How could anyone actually want this? The majority cannot possibly be happy with this change! Wasted so much time to level a card up that basically does absolutely nothing now.
WHYYYYYY would you nerf the cane 😡????? It’s was perfect the way it was. Like a few players complain and your NERF it. Like come on. You could have at least done a poll @NG_Filipe to get everyone’s imput before making a ridiculous rash decision. If most people agreed for it to be nerfed then I wouldn’t have much to say but most liked it the way it was. Please do this the right way and let the players vote for what they want.
I understand that you are upset, however, there was an issue with how speed was being calculated and was not working as it should and as it has been communicated (10% increase at level 1).
On higher levels the Free Roam speed would be just unplayable and would not be fun.

or is that disabled when you use the cane?
