Does it annoy anybody else the overuse of the jump-and-when-you-miss,-at the-last-second,-a-friend-will-catch-you type mechanic? It must have been used 15 or so times in the campaign.

I don't understand what you mean. Do you mean the short cut scene that happens on a jump your not supposed to get across?
He means when you do a long jump and there is a short cutscenes of a partner grabbing your hand and pulling you up.
Ye, I did notice it was used alot.

It's so unrealistic how they'd be so willing to go for it i thought it was quite funny, as if the game developers were having a bit of a joke.
I agree with you, off the top off my head I can remember 4 times this happened. Still every time I yelled at Harry/ Chloe/ Tenzin to save him. Still awesome game.
I still think think that some of the jumps were insanely big. Take Chapter 17- Mountaineering. After finding the dead body your platform cracks and you and Tenzin get to the ledge. You climb round then he has to jump and grab your hand. That jump was huge and a lot of trust needed to be put in Nate there.

I agree with this, I felt the same about CoD MW2 aswell, this sorta thing came up alot, gonna fall to death/be shot, only to be saved at the last second by someone.

On my Crushing playthrough I counted and it happened 8 times, I actually thought it was around a dozen though

so you guys would have rather fallen than be saved?
I never found it annoying

rather just have made the jump, make the game less cliché.
I'm only on Chapter 13 or something like that, not really noticed the catching/falling thing, but the thing that's annoyed me so far is the amount of times you have to boost a character up so they can drop a ladder for you.
The whole story so far seems littered with droppable ladders!
Something else that made me laugh right at the start were the two alarm shutdown panels...outside the locked rooms!
I thought the most ridiculous one was Tenzin on the mountaineering mission! seriously nobody could jump that. was hugeeeeee

errrrrr who cares? its a game.
if that was aimed at me then wtf.
I think everyone knows its a game mate! Funnily enough we aren't retards! But its just annoying how things repeat themselves and how they seem to be trying to be very realistic in every part of the game apart from these. Just strange to me.
But if your response is its just a game, then why the fuck do we even bother talking about anything to do with games, if its just a game. Unless you have said that in every 1,562 post of yours i pressume that you have had at least a few niggles with some games?

I never noticed this myself but then again there where so many other things wrong with this game it was probably something i did notice but ended up just being another issue with this lackluster blockbuster sequel.

What was wrong it! People opinions are so messed up in my eyes here. I know they're not, it's just an opinion but still. Why!

i wasnt aimed at you just at the post in general. it just annoys me that everyone moans about little things all the time. it's not like it was a massive game ruining thing just a tiny thing, people need to just play games as games and not moan all the time. if that makes sense.
Yeah i know what your saying but i just find it annoying.
This doesnt make a dent on how good the game was at all, i just think i could of thought of maybe something to spice it up a bit instead of gimme a boost and dont worry ill catch you :\
