Annoying parkour glitches

[Darren Evans]

Much of the mantling and parkour of Assassins Creed games is good but recent titles introduced an annoying feature whereby seemingly approaching ANY world object, such as a chest or a table had you jumping on top of it.

Nothing is more annoying that approaching a container with an interaction icon to open it or something to examine on a table, only to find yourself automatically jumping on top of the damn things and find yourself having to jump back off to get the interaction icon back.

Yeah, I suspect because the game engine allows you to climb on just about anything it just has a threshold where it will automatically run up/down if the difference in height is small enough, otherwise you'd have to hold parkout buttons just to run across uneven or rocky ground or up/down staircases.

But they might have that threshold set too high if you can run into a table and auto leap on top of it. I would think anything more than knee-high should need the parkour button pressed or it should just stop you.
