You do and don't, by standing on the spot they need to land on, it screws MANY people over because they react to it. It's pretty funny, would highly recommend.

Felwinter's a dude. He was also a blinking voidlock who knew how to shoulder charge

I'm so mad I got him confused with Jolder. Why does a tiny bit of level geometry change the direction of my jump completely, I'm a magic unkillable zombie that can fly.

Jesus, all you fucks complaining about the Felwinter jumping sound like millennial bitches. Go play Mega Man or Super Meat Boy if you want to talk about painful jumping.

It's just the way they set up jumping in the game, there's lots of spots where if you tap jump on an angled surface you fly away at a weird angle. It is frustrating when trying to scramble over a ledge or something but I imagine they did it to try and keep people from getting stuck or exploiting geometry.

And then two years after launch elected to put in a jumping puzzle that requires precision. :downs:

the green traps seem hive associated. So they might... but maybe not? There were those vestiges from dark beyond that never were used in Crota's.

I'm betting there's some power core moving/swapping shenanigans though.

Ok. You might me right about the green traps that makes sense power cores sound possible and I think some of the armor has perks related to cannons so probably some of that too

That and you restart not on the last ledge you touched but on some random level based on how far your body fell.

yeah the movement's designed for fps run n gun. Flat, large surfaces, maybe a gentle gradient, not too much precision required because you're going to be shooting poo poo. Not tiny little rocks with weird angles and overhangs and little pebbles everywhere that send you flying away

It's based on checkpoints the game makes when it thinks you were "safe." That's why if you jump off the ledge several times in the tower your spawn point moves around, the game has logic to detect if you die repeatedly to step backwards through your history to try and fix death loops.

Are the super low impact, high ROF auto rifles any good with the balance changes for ROI? I feel like the answer's no, but I'd hate to shard something and then find out I should have kept it.
