It's been here in the game since the betas. When falling from a cliff the character seem rolling or walking into the air...like some magic stuff is happening!!! I really hope they fix this in future title updates.
Seriously. They wanted to do hiking animations, but what did that really do except remove precision? Like, ever try to take cover behind a tree? Downhill is pathetic.
When jumping down from things they should just get rid of that roll all together. It really looks dumb and unrealistic!
