Remove SideJump_

[Silk_Sk]

Heck no! I'll never listen to techno! Also side jump stays, period.

What sacrilege is this! Sorry but I don't get threads and polls that suggest removing / changing something that would basically mean it stopped being the game we already know and love. Something like this would severely alter how the game plays.

I get it that everyone has their own opinion but at the same time, if you don't like how the game plays then go play something else and stop trying to change what is already an awesome game just to suit your play style. Removing the sideways boost is the start of removing what Hawken is all about - fast, action packed mech combat!

Maybe you might like MWO (Mech Warrio Online) better_

Cheers,

He's just probably mad that people side step his attacks.

I was tempted to vote both yes and no since the OP allowed both to be selected.

That said, no way. This would make some classes, like the Brawler and Rocketeer, incredibly devastating. Sharpshooters as well.

I wouldn't want it removed, but I would like it to happen a bit less thought. Maybe reduce it to 2-3 time in one battle instead of 6+ jumps so that you are able to dodge rockets and more powerful attacks, but having to fight someone who constantly jets between buildings back and forth hiding is annoying and stupid.

I'd really rather they didn't. Side dodging is the only thing that gives me a chance against C-classes when I'm in an A-class.

This is a bad idea. . . I try not to come down too hard on people, but seriously, this is a bad idea. Dodging is a core part of the game, no way they'd make this adjustment. Might as well take out guns if you take out the dodge in Hawken.

Gods hold me back. Another bunny down the game for players who don't know what is happening. The game has been about performance determined by skill and that should never change.

Just.... don't. Go back to Mechwarrior or just don't post any sort of suggestions like this.

Excuse me, my sinuses are acting up.
Kind of allergic to horrible ideas.

You want to know why this is such a terrible idea_
You're suggesting that a core mechanic of the game be removed. You absolutely cannot do that without fundamentally changing what the game is and how it plays. You mind as well be asking to remove jets or switch to a limited ammo system.

Please think through your ideas more thoroughly in the future. The game is in beta, and while that means there will be changes, and core mechanics may be tweaked, completely removing or changing them is, at the absolute least, extremely unlikely.

Trying to fix the gamebreaking stuff, not create more of it. No, no, no.

Buff Sharpshooter, don't remove sidejump. Problem solved.

[G4M5T3R]

[matsnake]

Stupid question imho

Side jump is essential for A classes and is useful even for C classes. Is the only way to dodge effectively high damage weapons.

Learn to use it properly before whining about a core mechanic.

[Draenox]

pff removing it_ game would have a dodging meaning then! just saying, besides gotta dodge missiles some how haha
