#Movement in Illuvium is AMAZING--But Here are Three Ways to Take Movement to Next Level

I really love the movement in Overworld! It's incredible! The smooth animations with sliding, zipping and jumping around, gliding its great! But I have noticed three ways Illuvium movement can be improved to the next level.

  1. When you are chasing an illuvial uphill, you can't get any speed to catch up to the illuvial. This can be frustrating for the player. This could be fixed if the team added uphill jetpack boosting. This would also be super sick for using hills as ramps to launch yourself off of!

  2. You can't aim while sliding. Please make it so you can hipfire (not aim down sights) while sliding. Not shooting while sliding makes it really annoying when shooting at an illuvial and the shooting/charging up shot is interupted by landing on the ground and sliding when I don't want the character to slide automatically, because I am about to finish off the illuvial, interupting gameplay flow.

  3. [EDIT: This one is has an option in game settings already, but it needs to be a "Hold to Slide" function. Right now you have to time it perfectly with landing on the ground to slide, or else you stop all the time.] You can't charge your energy quickly while sliding, and sometimes you can't get your character to stop sliding at all when out of energy (can't jump). And you can't stop your character from going into a slide either when you have speed upon landing. This can be frustrating when trying to recharge your energy quickly. Please fix this by allowing your character to not enter into a slide, instead landing into a walking stance for fast energy recharge, perhaps whenever you land while pressing the "S" key (backwards) you don't enter into a slide. Would feel natural imo.

  4. Possibly add vertical jetpack for going straight upwards (not my idea)

I've been wanting 2) for a while.

Regarding 3) you can just select to not auto-slide on the options.

I would like to be able to change the autoslide minimum speed threshold. Also, it would be nice to have a button to stop sliding, not a toggle on and off.

I mainly want to be able to fly and like 1-2 seconds before hitting the ground, hold the slide button to ensure the slide occurs.

Aim and shoot whilst sliding should be a given.

The game really needs vertical movement with the jetpack or better jumping that gets you higher up

Doing both would probably be really good. Jetpack would be the easier and more simple way to get up cliffs or adjust your trajectory while mag jumping could be slightly harder tech but more rewarding.

@ocean nexus You can already slide up fast uphill using a combination of jump+pack+slide in repetition

I dont know if the videos are up but try checking out Samurai3_JPN on twitch

If you dont find it, i can also show you next time we hang around in hyperion voice chat

Is that only on flat uphill while making contact?
