As I used to play (do) parkour (not freerun, even if I can do some flips), I can advice about weapons: * there are a lot of stunts which can be performed with one hand, and they will not reduce moving speed of tracer. * u can make a lot of stunts with pistol (or another one handed weapon) in one's bosom. * u can perform some stunts with big weapon (rifle) carried on ur back, but it will reduce ur speed and will always bother u. I can advice u to make classes for tracers, so depending on game mode: * some of them will preform not much stunts but will have good weapons and armor. * another class of tracers will have one handed weapons and low armor, but can make most of stunts. Or another way (may be even better) make player able to customize his weapons and armor right before level starts. And show him, which stunts he will miss and will be able to perform. Same with armor. Any way, for me shooting and moving at the same time and moving fast isn't possible. About trailer, it looks better than gameplay  Anyway I advice u to refuse from implementing flips. There are a lot of vaults to move fast from point A to point B. And parkour hundred times more useful then freerun.

Parkour + Shooter + Multiplyer = ??? Seems cool combination,, Hope I can help, but I am out of any shooting game  but if you need any help in algorithmic traces in your codesend me PM! Good Luck Thank you, I'll remember you when I need help with that. what about a shooter in a way advanced future where cities are built vertically now instead of horzontally because of overpopulation. because of all the narrow walkways, walls, structures etc, killing the objectives become much easier using some parkour moves to traverse the level... gives me some good ideas actually. once I finish my client work, and get a little farther into my personal project, i might experiment with that for a single player version of it. Cool, we can exchange ideas then.  There remains one question for me though. I'm still not sure if that whole stuff would work better in first person - what would make aiming and shooting much easier, but would require some tricks to get it working with the movement, or a third person perspective, what would not only look cooler, but also make more moves possible, yet would make aiming and shooting more difficult. Any opinions?

It's a game not reality, so unleash yourself and make it the way you want  Just don't forget the game must be fun and have a really good gameplay and not a frustrating gameplay (for example undesired automatic moves).

well you could use it more for traversing, instead of during combat,or to quickly get hieght advantage/cover. Well, sure, still, I'd like the player to be able to combat while moving. Oh, and @3run: u say first person would be best, well, why? Gimme some good reasons.
