DannyRed 32 Posted December 21, 2013 Should it be added? Right now it looks to me as if I was going for a sunday walk (or less) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steak and Potatoes 13480 Posted December 21, 2013 You need to take angles when running up hill rather than taking the hill head on. This will allow you to keep sprinting while gaining ground uphill faster. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hopefully it will be changed in the future, allowing you to run uphill (at the cost of more energy of course). 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That doesn't mean that it's not downright ridiculous that you cannot run uphill a little bit. Edited December 21, 2013 by DannyRed Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vonlinchen 26 Posted December 21, 2013 I'd love to see you guys run up a 70 Degree slope in real life, funny stuff. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is where I stand, while I do not mind the idea of taking a slightly faster pace head on with hills. I like the fact my character is not a cyborg and cannot just barrel up a mountain side without taking a sweat. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You aren't going to go amazingly fast, and you're gonna be very tired when you reach the top, but you sure as hell aren't going to have to walk up them. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Katana67 2907 Posted December 21, 2013 It doesn't happen on steep inclines only though. It happens on very slight inclines as well, which is what's irritating. That and you're either sprinting or walking around taking in the sights. There's no middle-ground "jogging" or anything of the sort. Until they implement a "stamina" system or a "thirst/hunger depletes faster if you sprint constantly" type of mechanic, the player needs to be able to negotiate hills. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes because all hills in DayZ are 70 degree slopes aren't they ? seriously contribute something useful ...hes making a very valid point about running up hills.

Diggydug (DayZ) 331 Posted December 21, 2013 When I'm sprinting and hit one of these annoying slight inclines, I type A and D as I go up. It keeps the pace more or less. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
