Nightwings Knighthood Travel Is EHH

[MaxPrimal]

I just unlocked all the knighthoods for the team and i have to say that Nightwings Knighthood travel ability is useless. He just slowly falls to the ground instead of falling fast. I do not see how this is supposed to help travel Gotham like the others abilities do.

I honestly don't like the travel for any of them, Wish it was as smooth as the gliding from other games.

If the BatCycle was faster that would make a big difference in traversing the city

If you're falling to the ground you are doing it wrong because you can fly through the whole city without touching the ground. Pull back on the thumbstick while gliding instead of pushing forward, that will cause Nightwing to gain altitude.

but...wow imagine needing to even explain that tho geez, a whole thread before actually moving the stick back??? damn

In his defense, the game purposefully starts you off with a downward trajectory and doesn't explain the mechanics at all. How would he know to pull back on the stick immediately to counteract the game's quirk?

good lord

This is why videogames need to be sold with instruction booklet like in the 90s because of people like OP

[Player Zer01]

tell me you dont know how to use nightwings TP without telling you dont know how...

NW and red have the best actual TPs to get across gotham. babs is 3rd and robins is last due to being slow.

[OKJaye]

& robins is more useful for stealth than travel, imo he's a bat bikeboi

[MaxPrimal]

Love all the toxic non helper say pull the stick back. Not everyone uses a "Stick" or gamepad on pc games. we save that crap for conslows, get a frelling grip. Also, there are absolutely no instructions for his travel mode like i have with the other 3 characters.

You have to hold w to descend and s to ascend. Its a bit annoying that the game doesnt bother to tell you this literally anywhere. All it does is say well press space mid air. lol

yall got me wondering if arkham told you to pull the stick back because its the same as the cape gliding. + experimenting in a video game before you post should be a no brainier.

(bonus round: why in like Dark souls of elderly ring it's ok & even praised that the game lets you figure things out on your own, meanwhile it's bad in other games?)

Different communities and different standards, I think.

Truth be told, I would not have expected the Nightwing Fortnite-Glider to actually have the ability to GAIN altitude. I found out online before I earned it, so I was in the loop... but logically, one wouldn't expect to be able to just... fly across the map with minimal effort?

Batman had to duck and weave with his gliding mechanism and occasionally use his bat-grapple to get a momentum boost. It was involved. This is just... so convenient that you wouldn't expect it to be so convenient, which is a dumb sentence.

I also didn't expect it to ascend either.....but I certainly moved my thumbs around first time I got it to feel it all out... then I learned.

Because this isnt a souls like game and wasnt marketed as such either.

The game already has a few pop-up tutorials and "AR" like training in it.

If the game has time to tell me not to hit police officers because they yield no xp or loot, wouldnt it make sense to have a brief info on your traversal as well just after you got it?

Sure It could & maybe should. However wouldn't also trying out a new gadget to see what it's capable of also make sense? These both can be true at once.

(Bonus round 2: I tell you how to enter a Jet, & make it accelerate & brake... lets say you takeoff Do you not* move the controls around to see how it flys ? or do you just fly straight waiting for a tutorial prompt?)
