#1

Sky and gliding identity received positive evidence where the game was described as feeling fantastic back in the air.

#2

Flying through Twining is smooth and useful, with quick transformations helping players reach new areas without breaking traversal momentum.

#3

Reviewer evidence is strongly positive: flying mechanics was repeatedly praised as a standout strength across 2 review(s).

#4

Moving as a spirit between hosts turns vertical travel into an enjoyable way to reach rooftops and explore.

#5

Wingsuit traversal is a fun addition in larger multiplayer spaces, giving players a fast way to move while also helping them spot where the action is developing.

#6

Helicopter sections benefit from the remaster’s broader vehicle-control refinements and help diversify traversal.

#7

Flying and gliding are praised as enjoyable and even exquisite, though one preview notes a slight delay when turning while gliding.

#8

Flying and airborne play were praised for creating distance, mobility, and strong character identity, especially for Atom Eve and Powerplex.

#9

The limited ship travel works more like a stylish level-select and resource-gathering interlude than free flight. The one direct assessment found its restrictions acceptable.

#10

The glider generally strengthens traversal by smoothing movement, reducing backtracking, and opening vertical routes, though one review found its descent less graceful than expected.

#11

Flying mechanics were mixed but generally useful as variety, with reviewers praising them as a break while noting limited depth or underuse.

#12

Ship flight and space combat can be fun, especially after updates, but several reviewers say travel still feels limited or merely good enough.

#13

Flight feels weightier and more deliberate than before while staying firmly arcade-focused, producing satisfying high-G turns, chases, and evasive maneuvers.

#14

Twister's hover and aerial movement can be thrilling when they flow well, but one reviewer found the hover slightly slippery. The mechanic is useful and fun, though not perfectly consistent.

#15

Bat traversal was often enjoyable and convenient, but one review found landing and ability activation janky while another described the powers as conceptually fun but uneven.

#16

Dividing piloting and gunnery between two players creates memorable teamwork, even if visibility and late-game pressure can make flight frustrating.

#17

Gliding is useful and enjoyable for traversal, but some players wish Rathalos could truly gain altitude instead of depending on updrafts.

#18

Helicopters can be entertaining but demanding, with the learning curve described as complicated enough to require practice.

#19

Flying mechanics are mildly criticized in the glider’s case, with the reviewer saying it slows down otherwise snappy traversal.

#20

Space travel looks and sounds exciting, but dogfighting splits opinion: some call it smooth and fun, while others find it dull, stiff, or underbaked.

#21

Flying was more divisive, with reviewers citing some early flying sections and dragon flight as weaker or imprecise.

#22

Dragon and flying sections were the most repeated weak point, ranging from acceptable spectacle to dull, half-baked or mechanically thin segments.

#23

Flying and aerial traversal are mixed: gliding is enjoyable, while grappling and aerial tactics can feel underexplored or poorly implemented.

#24

flying was a repeated weak spot because aircraft controls and practice options frustrated reviewers.
