Slow swimming :(

[FRANS_PLAYER]

I'm already annoyed by how insanely slow swimming is. Anyone else annoyed? Or just me?

 

[Rosie977]

It's about as slow as the old games, but yeah, it's pretty annoying! Hopefully different suits will have different speeds? i doubt it though

 

[JKDOS]

If you don't know, press A to go faster

 

[Marines]

Me too! I find It pretty annoying to swim slowly! And I have the ugliest wet suit lol

 

[Xara]

me too - i’m still very happy to be able to go swimming again but it’s so Slow lmao

 

[Ossiran]

It feels just as slow as it did in New Leaf to me, which was already slow. I'm definitely not a fan of it, but it is what it is.

It's slow but I really enjoy tapping A repeatedly to keep up the fast swim. It makes it more fun somehow, like you have to kinda work to swim which makes sense. I do wish it was a little faster but I'm still enjoying it a lot. We don't need to rush everything.

 

[Bluebellie]

I haven’t felt much difference than new leaf. Same kind of slow. I’m just happy the jelly fish don’t attack.

 

[Clock]

It’s slow, but I’m glad I’m not seeing jellyfish so far.

 

[milktae]

It feels the same as new leaf, they’re both pretty slow I wish they made it faster in the update

I'm happy you can catch jellyfish this time!

But yeah, it's slow but the creatures are less difficult and less annoying to catch too. I think I'm okay with it (for now)

But whyyyy does my character *not* do a flip when they jump in from the rocks?? It clearly showed a flip in the trailer but my character just.. jumps in.

you can do a front flip! you just gotta run full speed with B and jump in at the same time with A.

I forgot about The flip until you mentioned it. You are right! Right main it looks to be about the same way we would dive in new leaf.

Ohh thank you so much! I was kinda sad about not being able to do it XD

 

[Xeleron]

Yeah... sometimes it feels like I'm gonna ruin my button .-.

 

[Saga]

I wish they had gotten rid of making you tap A to swim with any kinds of speed. I have lupus which affects my joints, and swimming is really hard on my hand. I imagine it would be even more painful for people with things like arthritis, carpal tunnel, tendonitis, etc.

It would have been a lot easier for people with disabilities or other issues if they'd made it so we could just hold down a button, like when we sprint.

 

[CodyMKW]

it's slow just like real life swimming

 

[Cosmic-chan]

it's slow just like real life swimming

I never thought about it this way. Swimming in real life is slow. (Unless you're a professional like Michael Phelps or you know Haru Makoto Rei Nagisa from Free! but even still swimming above water is slow,, and even below the water is slow especially if the ocea is working against you.

 

[wanderlust//]

it’s kind of slow but I honestly don’t care, I still love it and tbh of it were to be faster I’m not sure I would enjoy it as much, dunno why lol

 

[courtky]

Yeah, it's pretty slow and annoying. I got bored of it after about ten minutes lol.
