@x-AmberPrice said in SUGGESTION: LET US DO TRICKS ON OUR HOVERBOARDS!:

I've always really liked this idea personally. I think it's something that is a very realistic addition in the future as it has been apart of surveys since very early Alpha days.

You spend a lot of time on your hoverboard and I think it would add some real dynamism into the travelling phases. I've seen a lot of people criticise the size of maps and the movement speed and I think this is an addition that would counteract that.

Perhaps it could go slightly further and if you were to land a certain trick you could earn a very small speed boost? Then again it doesn't have to be anything complex with a competitive advantage to it. It could solely be a show-off thing, or like I said earlier, something to spice up the travelling phases

I really love the hoverboard and think it's a real stand-out mechanic in the game and there's a lot of potential to expand upon it.

Yep. I wholeheartedly agree. Something like this will fit well in the style of the game. A trick or two would not impact gameplay at all and like you said make the traveling phases really fun.

Yeah I know but that's why this is a suggestion. Nobody says they can't work on these mechanics alongside something else.

I played 15hrs during the beta and my top priority regarding feedback is to let us do tricks with the hoverboard and/or let us grind on the edges! Riding the hoverboard is my absolute favorite thing to do when not fighting. At least two tricks would be nice so as to not make it ridiculous; just something to mess around and have fun with while waiting in the holding area. A kickflip would be fun. We already have ollies. Obviously boards like the 'Manta' should not be able to do tricks or grind, but the others, why not!
