Oblivion Dodge Roll

There is a perk which lets you roll. But is only a forward roll. No sideways; no backward. In other words, in combat largely useless.

 

I too want the Oblivion dodging back. Cannot believe, in a game where Dragons spit fire at you, that Bethesda removed dodging. What idiot thought this a good combination? how stupid do you have to be to do something like that?

 

Even if it were just a quick sidestep - or maybe side step in heavy armor or roll in light - that would be sufficient. Just...some way to dodge.

 

Why do developers create games that are 90% combat, then spend 10% of development time working on combat?

You, me and a lot of other people would like to see this too, i'm sure. I'm no modder (tried a few things in SimCity4, mostly maps,changing attributes and a couple of new buildings) but did wonder if a new shout could be made that did what you're sugesting, put it on a 2 sec cooldown and hey presto you'd have at least one dodge, be it only a short jump back or what not. I did start to look at whats involved in making/moddifing shouts but its the world building that gets my interest peeked.

Trouble with this is animation, not ability. I do hope someone will make a dodging animation. I know forward rolling is present in the game, and I hope (so hope) someone will institute a mod based off of this, perhaps, to restore dodge rolling. Or some sort of quick-dodge ability. Sorely missed.

I kinda hoped an existing animation could of been butcherd to fit, but really i have no idea. Anyone?

How could it best be implemented though?, i suggested a shout purely because then its just a case of pressing z to jump back, seemed easy, but not very.....em.....good. Better to be able to dodge left and right and backwards with modifiers, etc and still have you're shouts untouched but how? Seems like you'd need more 'special power'/modifier buttons. Which of course would be great, or double tapping movement keys, holding down ALT, dunno.
