What do you think about the Project Nova leak's movement in the trailer?

[Jerry4]

I just saw the leaked gameplay snippet for Project Nova and I'm honestly a bit worried. The movement looks so floaty and imprecise compared to the tight controls of the first game, which was its best feature. Has anyone else who caught the leak felt the same way, or am I just overreacting to a few seconds of pre-alpha footage?

Project Nova leak aside, yeah the movement looks floaty compared to the first game's tight footing. In that earlier title I felt the ground and input connect, every sprint felt deliberate. This clip makes it feel like you’re gliding instead of running.

I tried to compare it to other early builds I’ve seen, and it did feel off, but maybe that footage was a placeholder rig or a different input map. I’m not confident that’s representative of the finished feel.

Do you think the issue is the movement physics or just the camera angle in that clip?

[Avery.W]

Sometimes I skip ahead and think maybe it’s all about sprint audio or sprint wind, and when you hear nothing it exaggerates the floatiness. I did notice in my own tests that a tiny tweak to acceleration changed the vibe a lot, but I never got a stable feel, so I paused.
