Flipping : Othor Games

» Tue Mar 01, 2011 3:56 am

I was wondering about this when I saw the trailer and saw a guy do a flip in the air while shooting. I was wondering if this would be an actual part of gameplay and a possibility in the game.

It's not, theres a thread somewhere about stuff you can and can't do from the trailer.

Flipping in first person would make me vomit.

This has Parkour not Free Running. So basically the trailer was just for show. :thumbsup:

Thanks for the clear up everyone I was really wondering whether they would have put that in the game or not. In some sense I think that when you put that stuff in a trailer it feels like a bait and switch sort of but I really hope that they do deliver a great shooter.

Even then again not everyone is expected to do that in anyway at all. Not everyone can flip so adding that might just be a very weird thing to put in a game. So yeah I agree it would make me puke.

Almost all trailers show things that you can't do, they are meant to bait people.

Actually their are both elements in the game. Say i want to get to point B from point A but point B is above me so i hop up on a ledge, wall hop, and im their: parkour

now lets say i see a table, i slide over the top, land, and vault over a ledge, slide to breakfall, and then wall hop up having to certain place to go: free running.

If i came across as harsh my apologies my friend just glad we cleared this up. :thumbsup:

No both the things you said are Parkour. Now Free Running and Parkour are basically the same just one thing changes it. Free Running is getting from point A to point B with a style. (ie. flips and tricks)

Parkour is getting from just point A to point B as fast as possible. (ie. vaults, tic tacs, wall climbs) Free Running also uses though vaults and all those things I said, it's just tricks that separate the two. :thumbsup:

Yeah but to the people that do the parkour/free running it really doesn't matter. Call it what you want, everyone knows what you mean.

True, but still I like to explain the differences :biggrin:

You know to be honest I don't think Brink would need something like flipping because it is Parkour and I agree that it is parkour. I am thoroughly impressed with the video and it is absolutely amazing the amount of detail they put into the game.

Actually flipping would slow you down somewhat, or at least some flips would.

It'd be sweet I guess, but yeah, you wouldn't really need ir for anything.

This has gotten a bit off topic hasn't it.

http://www.gamesas.com/index.php?/topic/1154289-list-of-what-you-cant-do-from-the-trailer has a very comprehensive list of things in the cinematic trailer that aren't in the game. It's quite common for cinematic trailers to include such things, they're supposed to be interesting an exciting and to give you a feel for the game - Splash Damage has also released a number of in-game videos to show you the actual capabilities.
