For the love of liberty, let us turn AUTO-CLIMBING OFF!

[ΣrratiC]

I can't even recall how many times I've jumped over/on something on crucial second-to-second moments that has resulted in my death: Just wanted to quickly run by a supply drop to tap yourself off while running from the horde that's on your heels? Well, time for your silly little Helldiver to climb on top of it instead just because you got a couple of pixels too close.

Like, what's the point of having a dedicated climbing button if we can't toggle auto-climbing on/off anyways? If I want to climb, I'll press the climb button, I don't need my toon to make that decision for me.

Also, while we are at it, give us a separate bind for the jump-pack as well, there's been many a time were I wanted to climb on top of something to THEN jump-pack off of it to cover a longer distance, only for my Helldiver to waste the jump-pack charge instead of simply climbing because the binding for both climbing and jump-packing is the same...

Glad to hear I'm not the only one who keeps scaling up the supplies dispenser instead of taking out a box of supplies.

More key customizability would make me very happy :>

[Vinnie the eel]

yeah sometimes it's a real problem, i never approach the bunkers with gun emplacements because i always end up climbing out of the window and falling to the hordes, fall damage + little critter bite = death, he should only climb if pressing space

Very agree, climbing the ammo box while fighting swarm is not funny.

[Desh51]

No stims, last reinforcement, horde slashing at your back, yet you see the light at the end of the tunnel, you are JUST about to be able to reach the supply box in time, pop that stim, and keep on fighting, BUT HOL' UP! LEMME GET ON TOP OF IT FIRST!!!

It is even more hilarious when you won't autoclimb some spots, but can press spacebar to get up them. Then other objects half the height of those can't be climbed at all with either method.

Game is UI/UX trash tier for sure.

Thats why games should allow you to actually jump, and not lock you in an animation.

DUDE! it is so frustrating, my toon will climb up a box a head taller than him like it's nothing (often when I DON'T want him to...) yet a ledge at knee height proves to be too much for him. It's so inconsistent that you can't even trust it, so I find myself holding my climb button whenever I want to climb anyways, regardless of the auto-climbing...so said auto-climbing is literally nothing but a hassle for me.

Yeah man. At least if they just got rid of auto-climb entirely (or just let us toggle it like virtually every other more mature game with a parkour switch), you would tap spacebar once to try to get up something and give up if it didn't work.

The way it is now, you'll scramble up stuff you don't want to climb without trying and spend way too much time trying to be exactly where you want to be.

Movement in general feels like it is stuck in Ortho mode fulltime, it is just bad. Autoclimb makes it that much worse.
