What for?

You can alt-tab into any platform game at anytime. Even now.

Bakrem

stick to the classic - Jumping maybe be a dodgeroll and a combo of the two.
no need for wallwalks at all

Marcet

Soft parkour, hell yeah.
But non-intended, like you can go to roofs or some places if you jump very well. Some classes could have abilities or something that gives mobility or extra jump/dash too.

I like it.

Behague

Only if the characters shout it out as they do it.
"Parkour!"

EmoNagger

Sounds nice to have, yea for sure.
Is it that important for a RPG game? It is for shooter/battle royal, not really for mmorpg.
What will it cost to have it in game? Lets see ... hours on map design/balance/bug test, wages, and most likely push back release date by several months.

Worth it? Lets ask Steve

Nagash

No its ashes of creation not mirrors edge

I would love to see climbing like in BDO. Would make things slightly more strategic. But if you do allow parkour, you need to have significant fall dmg, like in Dark Souls.

Guys I think you are missinterpreting, its very soft parkour, not intended, mostly climbing roofs and simple stuff. Not premade mechanics with the intention of parkour. (maybe rogues can have second jump) thats all.

Mountain climb

Parkour? Personally I find it unreasonably impressive whenever an mmo allows me to just jump. I can't even let myself dare to hope that I'll be able to climb a ladder! let alone dream of one day living in such a sci-fi technological utopia where I can grab and actually pull myself up over a ledge in an mmo.

LOL same here. BDO was like the most movement i've experienced in an MMORPG

Depends on city structure I guess, but from what I've seen it doesn't seem to be a consideration at all.

Parkour involving running across rooftops will be an option. Mobility based classes will be better at it. In Ashes of Creation Apocalypse, everyone was able to use the double jump (or triple jump, I can't remember), that will be available to mobility classes. Mainly rouge. The double jump goes high. You could get on top of at least two story buildings. Unfortunately I couldn't find a video showcasing the jump. Such a video would probably be from a few weeks after Apocalypse released once most people figured out how to use it as it was not intuitive. Falling damage does exist.

From some of the early monthly videos: there will probably be specific areas that some classes can climb into enemy castles for the purpose of completing a quest leading up to sieging that castle. Such climbing points will be specific. Such climbing points will also be available in dungeons. You will not be able to just climb anywhere such as in Assassins Creed games.

Hartwell

They did want some level of parkour, but this will be likely restricted to certain objects out in the world and to specific classes.

awq

I just don't want invisible walls and stuff blocking my movement...
Or somehow landing on an unintended area like a high pillar or a roof or something like that and it just bugs out and you start gliding off it even if it's a flat area, being unable to stand there.

@FuryBladeborne

Does the game have significant enough fall dmg? Like in Dark Souls?

EmoNagger

Well in the video I watch Steve fall down from cliff and take no damage several times, so fall damage isn't in (yet).

Or he could have special GM privileges that let him defy gravity.

EmoNagger

GM privileges will make him immune to death, but he die several times as I recall. (best one is the one he got stuck in rock after teleport)

Maybe something like Jumping Puzzles from GW2 would be a good idea
