Fortnite players slam Korra\u2019s Air Glider animation for inaccuracies Epic GamesFortnite players are disappointed that Korra\u2019s glider animation does not accurately reflect its depiction in The Legend of Korra. As promised, Avatar: The Legend of Korra\u2019s protagonist joined Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 on April 2. In addition to a skin modeled after the hero, Fortnite players can unlock her Air Glider, Avatar Cycle Back Bling, an emote, and more. Fans of both properties have already taken a liking to Korra\u2019s arrival on the Island. However, many were instantly put off by one key detail \u2013 the Air Glider\u2019s animation is far from accurate. Instead of soaring along with arms and legs outstretched horizontally, characters who use Korra\u2019s glider do so with their feet hanging down. This even applies to Korra, to the chagrin of fans. Fortnite players highlighted the discrepancy in a Reddit post that\u2019s gaining lots of attention. As user tomtrax points out, the Air Glider itself comes with footholds as featured in the TV series. The assumption is that Korra and other Fortnite characters won\u2019t make use of the Air Glider\u2019s footholds because every glider needs to feature the same animation for hitbox purposes. Others noted, however, that exceptions were made in the past for Batman\u2019s Zero Wing Glider. One such comment in the thread reads: \u201cThey also LITERALLY HAVE AN animation for that with the Batman Glider.\u201d But, according to longtime players, Zero Wing entered the mix before competitive-related hitbox concerns started swaying design decisions in this manner. Many in the thread made it clear that they\u2019d take accurate animations over hitbox troubles any day. One Redditor wrote in part, \u201cEnough already! Just give us cool gliders and glider animations. You\u2019re already limiting what skins can be used outside of BR\u2026just limit what gliders can be used in ranked\/comp.\u201d Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 isn\u2019t exactly hitting it out of the park in the glider department.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
