Two Things Left...?
« on: February 09, 2013, 12:26:48 am »
Hi,
            Just spent about 2 hours with the .801 version, very, very nice!  :)  But only two small things, (large in helping actually)
that i can think of to help smooth out the last rough edges.

I'm still running into places where the walls are too high, something that could help enormously might be something like the boxes or the wooden platforms from AVWW 1, or some way for higher jump, or make them easier to find? or a store to buy water dash, or extra jump, or double jump or whatever, we could even use the coins we now use for mercenaries?

So. 1. some way to get over walls, or across bodies of water without having to poison pill all the time, sometimes, from the selection of available purified tiles, there seems to be almost no way to get those perks we need.

2. some way to get these things without having to die so much or chase around the map searching for them.

You know what occurs to me, is the treasure chests that are everywhere, they would be a perfect way to add a jump increase to get over walls and water dash and other things that we need but have a tough time finding. The treasure chests might be the perfect way to get them. Easier to find and less frustrating running around the map looking for things i need to go on.

Thank you, but frustratingly,
-Teal

please don't take this as me being ungrateful or mad, because i'm not, i'm just really frustrated is all.
anyway, thanks for listening. You know otherwise this game is darn near perfect!  :)


p.s.   maybe searching for things is better than just having it too close to hand. In that way its more like a quest to find what i need to go on. Well.... guess i will stop complaining and just go searching more.
Thanks anyway.

If there's a particular wall or body of water that you can't get over, and it seems to be blocking your way, AND there is not a signpost right in front of it noting that you need a specific feat to get over that, please let us know.  We'd need a savegame of where you are standing; it's a bugged slice.  If there is a sign, or a building you are supposed to go through to get to the other side, then you either need to come back with a feat or you need to go through the building.

Cheers!

I don't think it is a bug or a bad slice, the signs are posted just fine. I think I just haven't figured out where to go to get the water dash. And the walls that are too high, there is probably a double jump some where. I just need to figure out where. So i think its me, not the game. THank you for the response though, sorry to complain, take care, back to searching. i'll find it, i just have to not give in too quick.

I think that there are ways to get through these areas without feats. There are jump boosting perks and also jump boosting treasure. I had a +20% jump height perk and found some +28% jump boost treasure, so they do exist. With both combined it was very nearly possible for me to jump to a height requiring a triple jump -- double jump areas would have been no problem. Obviously you are really intended to find the feats, but it seems like it is possible without them. Whether this is intended or not, I don't know.

Yep, finding alternate ways around in something like that is always a good thing to have be possible.

Feats can be found by completing any of the robot research facilities on the map (that is  going in, stealing the feat, and escaping alive).  Water Dash is always the first feat you find.  After you steal the feat successfully, you can enable it under the "manage your character" menu.
