I love playing AoS as front-liner, building bunkers, tunneling forwards only to pop up and build another, taking potshots at the enemy all the time. I also love the thrill of realizing that you're about to be overrun and racing for the nearest trench to retreat.

Before version 0.49 this was all happening seamlessly, now, however, there is an issue that breaks that feeling of immersion I enjoyed: getting into trenches is a nightmare.

I charge for cover, and then glide straight over the trench, or clip the edge and then spontaneously fly 2 blocks into the air as if I just jumped. I know this must be some sort of issue with the auto-climbing works in the game at the moment, but it completely voids any fast movement between low-height cover. At the moment I'm trying to compensate for the auto-climb by sort of strafe-jumping into the trenches quake-style, but if I mess up the angle even slightly I pop back out and get sniped feeling like an idiot.

So I'd like to ask everyone two questions:

1: Is anyone else feeling like the difficulty of taking cover in 1-block wide trenches just went through the roof, or am I just terrible at AoS :p.

and 2nd: If you agree, what are some of the ways you've been getting around the problem? There's not much we can do about it until the auto-climb/models (I'm assuming auto-climb is the issue) are sorted out, so any help figuring out ninja-jumping techniques to be super-special-awesome trench hoppers would be greatly appreciated :)

They made it now so that crouching prevents auto climb so just crouch when you are dropping into a trench or behind 1 block cover.

edit: ninja'ed :/

As in literally just now? I was trying to get a screen shot of it before and crouching wasn't working for trench entry. Will try again though tanks for telling me.

/edit: My palm just went through my face and out the back of my head. Thanks.

they fixed that in the .49 update

"Note that a couple items in this Beta are still under testing and may change in the future."

I know some stuff is rough around the edges but the game is still under Beta testing. I am working on smoothing out the climbing and making trench diving easier.

Autoclimb bug: When holding crouch and pushing up against a single block, then releasing movement followed by releasing crouch, you autoclimb the block without moving, blowing your cover etc.
