I want to climb walls.

I hope they let me do that,

Like the FPS.

 

Will it be FP?

Or third person O T S?

Or maybe Iso?

 

Meh, in any case

I hope I get to climb walls.

**** off, gravity.

so... is that poetry?

It's unlikely that Obs will make Aliens playable, so you'll probably be disappointed.

I know you know this - but as you may know, I can't resist rethorical questions..

 

it's Haiku!

 

-

 

but how about sticky shoes for humans - so they can walk on the ceiling as well!? Or sticky cats in crates you can put under your shoes.

Modified felines that have had velcro added to their genome, thereby allowing them to stick to rough walls when thrown at same.

I vehemently dislike the impassible 1 foot obstacle that means you have to run around another route. It would be nice if anything that looked climbable or traversable in the game actually was as well, but that would probably be too much work.

Here's someone who hasn't been around in a while.

I've missed you, poet

your haikus and musings too

A while it has been

 

As for wall-climbing

I doubt they will have it in

A shooter t'is not

 

Though I must comment

Wallclimbing was sublime

AVP a blast

I hope they put a tiny rock that's only about a cubic half-inch in volume that blocks off a 3 yard wide opening. Just for you.

I liked wall-climbing in System Shock 2. I'm replaying it. I like most things in System Shock 2. Except those evil protocol droids that run up to you saying "I think you'll be pleasantly surprised" or "I am here to help" and then self-destruct in your face, take 1/4 of your life with them.

 

ESPECIALLY WHEN MY MAIN WEAPON IS THE WRENCH WHICH MEANS I CAN'T TAKE YOU OUT FROM A DISTANCE.

Where is there wall-climbing in System Shock 2?

I think the walls were sticky so you could skate down, but I don't remember doing that before the alien mothership.

There wasn't wall climbing in SS2, just mantling.

Dude, if I can go up to a wall that's taller than me, and scale up and over it, I'm going to assume my guy climbed over it. Unless you're some weirdo who decides that it's not climbing unless you use a pick and some rope or something. Mantling... pfftt... I mean what other form of climbing would they have in an FPS?

Nothing good comes from FPS.

 

Climbing walls like in reality would be fine, and I hope it is a fully 3D game. It's important to the horror that the Alien might be above you.

Starting at the bottom of a wall and moving upwards on it without jumping, would be climbing. In SS2, you just grab on to a ledge when jumping.

Actually in SS2, you move up to a wall, look at it, hold down jump and slowly start to move upwards until you can move forward (over). I'd say that fits your description.

Several games have mantling. I recall Unreal II having it. Quick reference: Wallclimbing actually has you climbing the face of the wall. Mantling is using the ledge. Wallclimbing is not limited by you being able to reach the ledge.

The only games I recall having mantling are ones done with the Dark Engine.

Thief 3 probably has it, too.

It does, as well as Chronicles of Riddick.

It definitely adds to the game. It's stupid seeing a wall barely higher (or worse, not higher!) than the player's head, and being unable to hurl yourself over it.

If a mod of Quake 3 (Tremulous) can handle wall climbing, I'm sure a professional dev team can do much better.

I want an AvP3 something fierce. AvP2 is still one of the best shooters ever even after all these years.
