I was just playing this game on my pc i did a roll and somehow i got over a wall i wasnt supposed to and i got outside the map and i couldnt jump back in, i had to restart the mission all over again because no goddamn jump button.

proving it needs it, the games alright, but the cover system is clunky and i dont use it.

yes, because i got over a wall i wasnt supposed to and if i had a jump i could of got over it, and continued my mission.

but that wall wasnt programmed by the dev to let you leap over it so i had to restart all over again.

what a bunch of bs, the game need's a jump to get around the level.

Dude i would be so much of a better game designer than cliffy b.

the pulling trigger for crosshair/second person view is pretty cool but you move too slow.

the gameplay is seriously flawed.

you cant crouch unless you can attached to cover LOL flawed.

they should add a dedicated jump button and a dedicated crouch button.

get rid of the cover system add a simple lean left or right and when you are near cover you can attach to it to blindfire though.

that would be much better gameplay design.

But then it would be a bunny hop festival that we see in the HALO games, jumping and shooting. It just looks so silly in MP, and very, very unrealistic.

Also, jumping to get you out means that jumping would also get you into other graphical problems.

no it wouldnt be a bunny hoping game, dude because to aim accurately you must use trigger/crosshair/second person view which makes you move slow, plus you can just make it so you cant jump while shooting.

halo's jumping is made to be floaty, like low gravity, bunnyhoping would be like quake.

killzone2 has a jump is it a bunnyhoping fest? hell no.

gears of war is seriously flawed, i cannot believe you cannot crouch without being attached to cover.

there's no dedicated crouch button, there was times when i was playing the cover system wouldnt let me attach and i could of just crouched manually with a dedicated button.

when you attach to cover and press left trigger for acrosshair it automatically leans around corner for you.

the problem is, if you had a manual lean like call of duty you can adjust how much you stick out of the cover leaning out.

with gears of war current, you cant.

put it this way, i could improve this game in so many ways.

A jump button would be unnecessary and would change the gameplay completely.And you not using cover just makes you an easy target, so keep ignoring it.

I'm surprised Epic hasn't added in a "Break through wall" feature.

ehh sounds weak. Lean? why would you get rid of cover for a lean button that would be pretty pointless. But go for it make your game i want to see how far you get.

Gears of War is definitely overhyped it doesn't have a jump button, the cover mechanism is seriously flawed and the gameplay is very generic it feels like a Call of Duty rip off except with monsters instead of Nazis I think the character is dislikable he just feels like some random wannabe bad ass with an attitude, geesh when haven't we seen that the graphics was alright but up close it was meh i'd prefer the Call of Duty 4 graphics over it truthfully if I had one word to describe it I would use mindless shooter now I know that I will get flamed here for it but it's not because it's on 360 I liked Left4Dead I thought that game was innovative and good the team work and hordes of zombies running at you was awesome but I don't like Gears of War it didn't keep me interested.

Just imagine an already buggy game getting a jump capability online. Then you get bunny-hoppers hopping around like its spring and griefers yelling because they can't hit anything because all the weapons have bullet lag.

If Gears of War's cover system is seriously flawed, what does that make Killzone 2's? Flat out busted? Your bias is showing...

Jumping in a game like this would be dumb as hell. Also it just wouldn't look right seeing how the game is going for a realistic feel, if you jumped you would only jump like a foot off the ground, it would be pointless.

WTF!.............This is unheard of, a level 1 user bashing a game :o

Why would a PC gamer buy a console oriented game, and then starts bashing it on obvious console oriented mechanics?

on gears of war there's a place with water i wanted to jump into but i couldnt because well no jump and wall wasnt programmed to let you leap over it.

no jumping hurts gameplay you cant get around levels and get stuck on stuff.

In beggining of gears of war there's like a courtyard and building you run into, but the courtyard has water in the middle not deep, but all because of no jump i couldnt get in there .

it just hurts the exploration of levels.

that's possibly the lamest crap ever, a unrealistic roll in place of a jump button.

LOL the jump would be alot more useful to get around the levels, i cant even jump over the side of a staircase because no jumping.
