Climbing is janky as hell on ps4 and has been for a long time. Trying to climb the towers in places like the unnamed city is particularly frustrating. My character lets go at random, tried to climb horizontally into small ledges, refuses to climb past any small lip jutting out and just generally sucks. Pls have a look at it, it’s been like it since the patch that changed the roll system.
If i remember correctly, you can avoid falling because of the Character being dumb by keep holding X. This way the character will hold back the wall as soon as he releases.
Safe climbings exile!
Yeah without holding x I’m guaranteed to fall off. It’s when your trying to get past ledges and lips especially at the top of some towers, it just jerks around and refuses to actually climb until Stam is gone and he’s falling. I particularly enjoy the speed crunches that happen sometimes, looks like he’s furiously teabagging whatever I’m climbing lol
Added to the above, the climbing gear is completely useless. You spend the same (or even less) stamina climbing naked than climbing wearing the climbing gear. Or at least, that’s my experience with the game.
I experiences major climbing issues in unnamed city when trying to climb to get the shards. Climbing anything is easy its getting on top of structures thats the problem. When trying to climb on the side of objects you get to the top it does this “Jump” like move that just makes you fall back down. Only when climbing on corners does it allow you to get on top of pillars.
Climbing gear helps with smedges of stam loss for long climbs, but has little use for short climbs.
I with light/med mix and climbing gloves, I’ve climbed some of highest towers with out much issue.
I tend tap button as a climb, so when I do let go I just grab on again.
Not sure if Upcoming update will have Armor weight changes and climbing changes. The random fall off is mostly game engine issue… been there since day 1. Doubt thats gonna get fixed.
Climbing was in good spot thou 2+ years back? Alot spots that didn’t cause the instant fall off. So maybe they could?
Yes climbing was just fine before the update that bought the dodge roll changes. I have tried all the different climbing gear and holding x, sure the boots and gloves help to reduce stam drain but ledges, and in some cases any slight deformity in the wall itself caused issues.
Must be something wrong with your game. climbing gear and kits make a huge difference for me.
It was way before that. Some patch broke it so you could hardly climb anything. Next patch they “fixed” it to the state it’s in now. This was shortly after CE was free with PS plus, which was like 1 year before the dodge changes.
I used to to that too, but it’s way easier to just hold the button
I’ll clarify a bit. Climbing gear does indeed reduce the stamina but It does nothing to assist in the actual climbing mechanic other than that. I still spaz out on certain textures like the little in step in the wall surrounding unnamed city.
