    Hey guys,

    just wanted to throw what ive found out there. Everywhere now and then theres a slope that you would think you can climb, but cant due to slow speeds or whatever. on several of these, i have found that while walking forward, if you continually make your mechs legs move left and right while trying to walk up these inclines you can make it. Not on ALL slopes but generally this little trick has helped me a LOT in canyon networks.

    I've done this more than a few times, and this works because you are changing the angle at which you walk up. instead of straight up, you zig-zag. Just kinda quickly :whacko:

    Our first instinct seems to be to go straight up any incline. However I you take them at an angle to begin with I at least have fared better. Doing the wiggle reminds me of some TV show my daughter use to watch, which until now I had blacked out of my memory.

    Sarcastic answer: Jump Jets.
    Actual answer: Sadly, still Jump Jets.
