  • As you know, the Dying Light 2 grappling hook was nerfed in a recent patch, which has really affected its gameplay. Especially for the speedrunning community. However, you can still exploit the grapple hook mechanic to give you an advantage. Not to mention it's still great for combat and general spiderman webswinging.

    From the first time I used the grappling hook I thought you should be able to climb up it. Aiden can do all this superhuman parkour, but he can't climb a rope. That's how grappling hooks are used lol.

    I’ve known about this ever since I got the grappling hook. I had the glitch where I couldn’t upgrade my night runner tools so I couldn’t bungee jump like others could. This method can be annoying sometimes because if you’re climbing a building and you grapple to close to yourself it doesn’t hook on to the wall and you’ll fall. Besides that this is a great vid!

      Honestly, I don't think they'll nerf this method - this is the way i've used the hook to scale buildings quickly since i got it and, to me at least, it really doesn't feel like an exploit or unintended use. I for sure could be wrong, but it 'feels' like an intended use gameplay-wise just because it flows very well - and it's (somewhat) more realistic by comparison

    Seriously though man, something that’s bugging me right now is how they changed the repair charm, I get it should cost something but theres no reason it should cost what it does currently.
    *dying light one* repair cost (one) scrap
    *dying light two* repair cost (six hundred sixty-six) scrap.
    That’s some serious down grading. I get ones “unlimited” and the other is only “3-5” repair but I’d either accept D1’s repair back or lowering the cost from “700” down to just 100 hundred.

      Because in DL1 it was a built in feature, in DL2 it was a secret dev item. Still feel like they shouldn't have added the scrap cost because its a secret dev item, if they had just made it a post storyline only item that would've been a better middleground.

    When I first got the Grapple Hook this was what I did, then I found out you can spam it and they patched it the next day

    Unpopular opinion: I like DL2's grappling hook a lot more, and I think its parkour overall is much better.

    I find the grapple was and still is terrible for swinging. Or am I just bad? 😅

    they have only nerfed the succeeding pulls , the first pull is the same as the previous version.

    I still use it horizontally its faster to go up sure but that's now how it was meant to be used in the first place so I think folks are just being ridiculous
