Fancy acrobatics/flips?

I've seen, in the trailers, jedi pulling off fancy acrobatics, jumps, and dodges, yet I cannot find out how to do these in-game (mind you I'm only on the third level in singleplayer, but I'm trying to do this in multi). Will the jedi academy show the combo keys to do these? Or, should I merely whine for help on this forum? ;)

The wall kicks and wall walks are the most shown tricks. For wall kick, just strafe left or right into the wall and hit jump as soon as you hit it... don't press forward. Now if you want to do the wall walk, its the same thing except you just need to be running forward at the time.

The other aerobatics is generally just the generic jumps in a particular direction comboed with a lightsaber attack.

Hope that helps,

hrm.... I knew those. Looks like the trailer has some extra things thrown in that aren't present in the game.

Rats.

Would it not be in the manual? I'll give you the benefit of the doubt, here.

From the readme:

Command: Forward or Backward or Strafe Right or Strafe Left
+ Crouch
Conditions: Must be running or landing from a jump.
Move Type: Roll
Description: You will roll in the direction you have
pressed. Rolling from a jump may help absorb some of the
impact damage. Be careful, though, because once you enter
a roll, your momentum will carry you forward until the roll
stops. You can still turn while rolling so you can use it
to outflank an enemy or avoid rolling off a cliff. You
may not attack during a roll.

Command: Forward + Jump x 2
(Press Jump once to jump and again to flip)
Conditions: Must be running towards a wall and have at
least Force Jump level 2
Move Type: Back-flip off wall
Description: You will take a couple steps up the wall in
front of you and flip backwards away from the wall. You may
end up behind a pursuer, leaving him open for an attack.

Command: Strafe–Left/Right + Jump
Conditions: Standing still with a wall to your left or right,
must have at least Force Jump level 2
Move Type: Right or Left-Flip off wall (respectively)
Description: You will take a couple steps up the wall to
your left or right (depending where the wall is) then flip
toward the opposite direction off the wall.

Command: Strafe-Left/Right + Forward + Jump
Conditions: Running with a wall to your left, must have at
least Force Jump level 2
Move Type: Wall-run on a wall.
Description: You will rise up off the ground and run along
the wall for a short time. If you hit the jump button again
in the middle of this move, you will flip off the wall.


Hope that helped some.

As I posted, OOC, I already knew them... I just thought that I had seen some different acrobatics present in the trailer. Thanks for the help, though.
