Lactamid Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 (edited) shift + A or D would do possibly doubble shift? Edited April 7, 2013 by Lactamid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BloodKitten Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 what are the keys for it 0.o? from my expiriance hold the aim button and dodge while holding A or D (defults) holding back will make you back roll or however you call it (not femiliar with the english languege) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gestalt Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 Haven't we always had rolls? Or is this a new type of roll? I r confuzzle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LunarWind Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 To initiate a side-roll or back-flip: Enter "aiming" mode by holding right-click. Hold the desired movement key. (Forwards, backwards, side to side.) Press the spacebar to jump. Profit? Not really, but it looks neat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3Jane Posted April 7, 2013 Author Share Posted April 7, 2013 Since when was this added? Known about most moves in the game but this one was a pleasant surprise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit: yeah that just does the dive. What is this side roll? It's just a regular roll, but going to the side right? Same with back roll, just press back and tap sprint.

Nethereal Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 Actually,you aim,hold the movement key and then roll.Not jump. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gestalt Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 (edited) Actually,you aim,hold the movement key and then roll.Not jump. OH! Let me try it. Thanks. Edit: Ah they are indeed backflips and siderolls/cartwheels. Not sure how useful they are, but look cool nontheless.

vilivanili Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 yup, that and "sneak up on enemy - use them as shield"-move :) What are you talking about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arlayn Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 We have had this for awhile... infact aiming while doing flips/rolls in a 3d game has been around since Zelda Ocarina of Time (There may have been others before it)... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smithf Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 not sure about the aim part.. I always thought that it was direction + tap SPRINT. nobody taught me that... just an extrapolation of forward roll. iirc, back flip is the result of "rolling backwards".

Arlayn Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 I had a Zelda feel to it so I just assumed aim, and flip and ta-dah it happened lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always thought that it was direction + tap SPRINT. nobody taught me that... just an extrapolation of forward roll. iirc, back flip is the result of "rolling backwards". Yeah the rolling forward/backwwards/sideways is just direction + tap sprint, but apparently if you do it while in aim mode, you do a fancy back flip or sideway cartwheel. Really not exactly practical, since it takes you out of aim while you perform the flips anyways. The only real use for these are for when you sense threat coming for you while you're aiming. But then you could always just use the regular direction + tap sprint roll. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toddwjp Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 On the talks of rolls hold W and press (shift and space) to do a front flip, quite a bit longer then a normal jump Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neKroMancer Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 The backflip/side roll is useful when you want to get out of that area faster than normal. Noticing that the AI seems to have a hard time hitting me when I do these things. Backflip isn't particularly useful compared to side roll. I do these moves occasionally when I want to get back into cover quickly. It's faster than directional sprinting since it has no acceleration animation.
