No its not, Sorry, im an actual traceur. I do parkour all the time. Google it if you have to. Search videos on youtube like 'Parkour literally'

Please don't try and inform someone about a topic you don't know about. Be this a game, a sport, a job, or anything. At least do some research first, or else you just look ignorant. Sorry

Parkour: (the art of movement) is the physical discipline of training to overcome any obstacle within one's path by adapting one's movements to the environment. It is a non-competitive, physical discipline of French origin in which participants run along a route, attempting to negotiate obstacles in the most efficient way possible.

Anyways, back on topic, Wraith, i like it when people all try and do one tactic because either it will fail miserably, or else it will make others develop new tactics to counter it. So i say bring on all the Lights!

Actually I believe parkour originates from the Vietnam war but David Belle popularized it en francais

Anyways about the whole light operative ordeal... totally called it.

Great now there are 2 many light operatives running around. :facepalm:

Actually, disguise really wouldn't benefit a Heavy player, since he would be easy spot (he would always be slow)

The time will come, to seperate the wheat from the chaff.


Simple solution: Think smart - disguise as a heavy.


I wouldn't say it originates from the Vietnam War. It originates from a military movement style which was designed for scenarios like the Vietnam War, in which you would have to move quickly through unfamiliar terrain.

Not only is it easier for Lights to disguise as anyone, it is also a useful skill for avoiding unwanted damage to their fragile frames, by sneaking past players

Disguising as a different bodytype might work on consoles, because they have dynamic movement speed. But on the PC, a light will always move as fast as a light can and a medium will always move as fast as a medium can.

Also you have to sacrifice your SMART-abilities if you want to play your disguise properly.

No. But they can because they can move at 50% speed if they want to.

Technically you won't be a freerunner, you will be a traceur. (Or doing parkour, not freerunning)

Parkour = efficient movement across urban environments (vaults, wall climbs, slides etc.)
Freerunning = Stylish movements for entertainment purposes (Flips, Hand spins, etc)

And in Brink you cannot do flips.
Just thought id let you know the difference because alot of people don't understand that sadly

Oh, so you only meant tilting the stick half-way?

I should hope that the game would limit your speed to the person you're disguised as, or at least leave it as an option.

Exactly.


That's what I hope as well.

A heavy operative could use a light as disguise to move around faster, too, then.

Where did you read that it differes on PC and console? As far as I have heard, disguising takes on the look and physique of the player, but player speed is not changed, regardless of what platform it is played on.

anolog sticks have variable output

I'm going Light to start. I want to master the art of the Smart

Another major advantage to starting as a Light is that their restricted weapon selection will not be as much of an issue initially since you will not have unlocked many weapons. In this manner you can expand the Light's arsenal as you play and should you ever desire to switch to a Medium or Heavy you will have access to all of those weapons.

To be honest the best starting strategy is probably to run Light then Medium and lastly Heavy due to how the weapons overlap. This will allow you to use everything unlocked from the previous type on the current one whereas unlocking weapons for a Heavy has no benefit for a Light or Medium.
