Kicking: Wish List : V

» Wed Sep 21, 2011 5:19 pm

So, I've noticed in a few seemingly popular First Person POV games, that there is a 'kicking' mechanism. I'd like to see TES incorporate this ability eventually. If only Skyrim had it. Thoughts?

Ha. If they not only gave khajiits a clawing animation but everyone a kicking animation as well, and still not tie hth to a skill and give it some perks, I would lose faith in what little common sense the world has left.

They already did incorporate it with Daggerfall. (not sure about Arena)

But yeah, I would love to see that return alongside climbing. (note: I don't mean climbing as a skill. Just give me some ladders!)

lol, true in a sense. It'd be much like the shield bash/push if anything... in most stances- it's just made to knock enemies off their balance in order to deliver an actual devastating blow.

We have bashing, pretty close to kicking and just as cool.

Body combat in general needs revisiting. I hope to see this in TES VI. Oh yeah, I wont care about this stuff in 5 years.

Shield Bash is like a kick it has almost the same effect

BGS can barley even handle just fists and youre asking for kicks as well?

I would love a kick or bash type melee skill to knock enemies off balance momentarily.

i guess kicking can be used to bash them away,which have a smaller chance to make them flinch

Obviously none of you guys have watched the E3 demo. He kicked a wolf in the face ... kicking is definitely confirmed and you can see it for youself in the E3 demo on youtube. It might be something like a finishing move though because he kicked it then stabbed it, then it died. There was a cinematic type view when he did it too ... so I suspect its just for finishing moves. Either way, kicking is in

When using a 1-h sword you will sometimes execute a "kick and stab" finishing move.

As for bashing we already have shield bash and weapon butting.

I just want to be able to kick something off a cliff.
Or kicking a dragon's head to the side.

You can kick wolves.

Maybe if you pick up the shield bash perk, but tend to go one handed weapon with no shield, it sends out a kick instead, knocking your opponent off balance for a bit...
