Donnell Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 I've recently discovered this while playing around with melee: Sliding in mid air at an enemy causes them to fall. Resulting in what looks like a flying kick. How long has this been in? I love it! Not only is it highly amusing me to (not hard to do that really) but it is quite effective against bigger enemies like Grineer bombard. Instead of cautiously walking up and holding block, run up and shove your boot in their face! once they're down, finishing move with melee. If they still get up, you have a few seconds to get back or blast them. Thank you for this! Can we also have enemies sent flying when we slide along the floor? Ragdoll physics never cease to amuse me. (Only the enemies that run at you though or will get easy) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spobbles Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 This has been in...a long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenzinNinJa Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 This has been in...a long time. Yeah... At least since October 30th last year. But yes, very fun to fly around dislocating Grineer jaws with your feet! I believe that the fist and feet melee weapons have some sort of spinning air kick as their directional melee attack. Looks badass! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donnell Posted November 25, 2014 Author Share Posted November 25, 2014 Really? I had a 6 month break as I moved house recently but almost a year ago? damn.. People should do it more often. Just sayin :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 This has been since, like... forever. And I love it, there's few things more satisfying than kicking a heavy's teeth in and then pummeling them while they're down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just sayin :) I remember people doing it a lot more often, before coptering became the prefered way of moving around, as it's slightly faster than regular running.

FLSH_BNG Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 I do it all the time in combat, it's funny too when there's a line of enemies that you can knock over in succession with a swift kick to the teeth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liminal Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 (edited) It's absolutely necessary when you need a guy down ASAP but you have to reload! It's also my #1 method to deal with Shield Lancers (if I can't OHK them). IIRC this has been in the game since before parkour, right?

Mesyra Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 I use this VS Heavy units so I can use melee finishers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockscl Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 (edited) thats rarely seen in use, but its been since too long to remember, i always felt the kick needs some camera shaking, or some special sound to make it rewarding Edited November 25, 2014 by rockscl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unknow99 Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 Yup,it's here since some months now... On the other hand, when you slide and collide with an enemy : nothing. When you tackle at a certain speed,you expect someone to fall, isn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donnell Posted November 26, 2014 Author Share Posted November 26, 2014 ^ Hehe yeah but also has potential for getting your own face kicked. :o I guess this post can at least inform newer people of this little move. oh, and i've started using Nekro's soul punch a bit too much. "Nekrooo~ pawwwwwnch!" *Grineer fly across the map and bounce off walls* hilarious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MihawkDulacr1 Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 ^^ i join the opinion too that its weird that when you slide and tackle someone , and thus nothing happens. It should be too that he/she would fall down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egg_Chen Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 I started in U7 and it was present then. Sorely underused move by players at large. Reloading and a heavy walk round the corner, knock him down and melee finish the fool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kainosh Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 I guess they need to deal lil more damage. At least we should be able to break all grates with it. Some grates are tough enough for 3 kicks in a row. I tried it. When I solo I always break stuff with my dive kick....Hell I even killed some low lvl enemies with it when I had no ammo and meele.
