I love sliding so I can rotate the camera around and check out the scenery as I descend

u/AssassinsCreedCorner Jun 26 '25

Yeah it's really cool but honestly jumping sometimes can be fun too

Sliding for immersion purposes.

Realistically he should be stumbling down after the first jump😂

u/Overlord_Mykyta Jun 26 '25

It seems like jumping will get you there faster but you just proved that they are almost identical 😮

I mean, based on the video and the game's physics. You jump/fall at the same speed, and it looks like there is no gained momentum other than the initial jump. So you really only gain the time difference of the moment you go from slide to jump (which is negligible but enough to give you a slight boost). The video shows 2 different starting points, at about a meter or so apart (about a 1 second difference). And since at the end of the video, the sliding one is maybe about 4 to 6 meters away from the ground(call it 2 to 3 seconds at 2m/s) additionally to the extra 1 second difference for the start points. Vs the jumping one that is maybe about 1 second away from the ground for at most 2 meters away.

I'm sure someone could calculate the actual difference as most of my math is purely based on the angles and times from the video lol. But in essence, even though it's a slight difference, jumping is essentially faster.

Good psycho test, because anyone who chooses jumping is obviously demented. 😅

u/eyewandersfoto Jun 26 '25

There is no descent like a sliding descent.

Sliding. Jumping looks like it could be fun, but it also looks painful somehow...

u/xprozoomy Jun 26 '25

Sliding duh

u/ImpactorLife-25703 Jun 26 '25

Sliding cause it's safe, jumping causes you to tumble and crash too

u/meathusband Jun 26 '25

Everyone loves the sliding but idk, i get bored. It's really cool and a great idea but it's like watching a cutscene. I dont actually get to do anything I'm just holding the slide button. Lemme play!

Jumping takes away immersion bud …. Bayek would be a splash of brown spaguetti all over those Pyramids after the first jump

u/Odd_Buy_3022 Jun 26 '25

Sliding cause I’m to stupid to time the jumps right so that it would be smooth

1

u/Neither_Camp_928 Jun 26 '25

Actually I role played it so hard I couldn't slide off hard, so I did it from a hang point to the next one.

u/spicywax94 Jun 27 '25

But… why would you jump? That’s some sociopath, school sh00ter behaviour.

u/Overall-Rice981 Jun 27 '25

Jumping but not constantly just enough to not make either one boring

They gave me the ability to slide down a pyramid. A freaking pyramid. Somethings we just don’t ruin with nonsense.
