enhanced movement: wallrunning, bunnyhoping to carry momentum better

So overall i really like the game.At the release of Titanfall 1 i allready thought of how sick it would be to have a battleroyal game, with all the enhanced movement option and great vertical gameplay of titanfall.So i really like Apex so far. But im at the same time kind of sad that they took so many of the core movement options out of the game or gated them behind heros:

- No wallrun or wallrun combos
- No bunny hopping to carry fast momentum and movement speed over a longer distance
- grappling hook only available when selecting the robot and even then it reaches not very far and the pull is kind of slow
- no general stim for faster movement

I can understand that they want to make each hero interesting to play and therefore give some of the favorite items like the grappling hook to some character as abilites.
But i really miss the wallrun in combination with the walljump and bunnyhop to speed up. I think the game would feel even way better, if those kind of movement would be in apex.

At least let us bunny hop after sliding down a hill, when we reach the bottom of the hill to carry the speed and momentum further along for 50-100 meter.And or let us get faster and faster the longer we slide down the hill.

I think the game would be even better if you make the grappling hook a item which you can find on the map to equip as white(1 time use), blue (3 time use) or golden (5 times) use item.The robot could still have the grappling hook as ability but ontop of that you could find it as item beside other items like:

- stim packs which let you run faster
- grappling hooks
- jetpacks to rocket jump in the air and then hover there until your jet fuel is empty
- teleporter grenades like sombra has them
- wingsuite

Maybe you would have a special socket and could only carry one of those movement focusd items at a time, so that you had to decide which one, if you find multiple.

  • no, movement is perfect.

    jump height could be just a little bit more, for easier roof top jumping on towns.

    what has to get better tho is vaulting on rock terrain and some windows. then it keeps up the high pace.

  • it's a pitty your reading comprehension isn't as strong as your egg or your wall hugging skills.go back to the post,re read it over and over until you get it.

    Every shooter is like every shooter,because its a shooter,no amount of wall running, bunny hoping, triple back flips will change it to a none shooter.sounds to me like mirrors egde is your kind of game.

    Its this simple,this game isn't for you,you need a new elite hobby,us casuals own Apex,adapt or move along 🙂

  • Everyone needs to stop with the whole "this is our game" bulls**t. How toxic can you guys really be? I really doubt they are gonna add any wallrunning or bunny hopping. I wouldn't be totally against wallrunning as long as you couldn't run along a whole like 70-100 foot wall.

    I do like the idea of a movement slot for certain items, like a grappling hook, a burst like jump pack (like a single double jump, dont want people flying around, or maybe a directional boost.) or a stimpack that increases speed to like 1.5x. Though I do see how that would effect their whole legend concept. They could just make a legend with certain effects like that, like the robot already has. And honestly I feel like that's the way to go, because there is so much room for new legends and if they space them out not too far or too close, they could be a great way to change up the meta.
