Why are there no ladders?


(Rex) #1

I wonder why there are no ladders placed on the maps, although they could fit well at some places. :confused:
All your former games had some, why not also DB?

Ladders are great because of the tactical advantage they lead to is counterbalanced by the risk of being vulnerable while climbing.

I’ve never liked ladders. Wouldn’t kill myself if they were put in the game though.

Would much rather see trick jumps than ladders. Same idea, can still shoot and move while doing it.

This, much rather would see the maps formed so that intricate jumps are possible rather than ladders. Anywhere there could be a ladder there could be instead a jump route. And SD level designers are already looking into making these jump routes.

You haven’t played ET then. :wink:

And if we talk about the climbing mechanic on the ladders, I prefer how it was done in ET. Because it was fast and you could also climb on the side of the ladder and also shoot.

Ladders are an entry level barrier to the current generation of gamers who aren’t used to advanced play. You’ll be suggestion doors next.

The current maps you mean? Because you rarely see ladders in the streets unless a building is under construction or something.
There are actually some improvised ladders with planks (LB as attacker, first stage when you go up the roof to the railway).

They should add a ladder to the back of the assault class, think of the possibilities
