since ive started plying this game since day 1.. ive been asking why is the movement soooo different. ive come to conclusion. THERE IS NOT ABILITY TO WALK BACKWARDS. which is absolutely the dumbest thing ever. going prone in this game and trying to scoot back a little is IMPOSSIBLE
In the combat position, you can take short steps in different directions. There is also a great movement that was not implemented in the game. I would advise you to watch this video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xMwJBoSUB4k&t=100s I understand you're talking about character movement as it was implemented in the Wilds but actually the movements in this game are a lot more enjoyable I think
Character movement:
Satisfying movement for all players.
Keep the movement that is in game but double tap the A button on the Xbox controller to go into the wildlands strafe movement forward, backwards, left, and right without the character turning to move.
Ability to move forward, backwards, left, and right like in wildlands while standing, crouching, and prone by double tapping the A button on the Xbox controller or the mark for sync-shot/vault/open parachute button.
If you have a PlayStation you would double tap the x button.
If you have a PC you would double tap the mark for sync-shot/vault/open parachute button.
Simple solution. If only Ubisoft is listening!
