Bro this video is the BEST mirage parkour video ive seen, most r all pc mods or people just saying “you cant eject on console its just luck”. Lowkey you’re becoming one of my fav ac youtubers keep up these great insightful videos bro 🙏🔥😊
Aw man thanks so much! Yeah not only can you do side ejects on console, but I manage to do it with a super high success rate, probably 90-95%. Once I figured out what method was the most consistent for me, I just kept doing it and they became more and more consistent.
@@RopotopolousThats so good to hear because my experience with mirages parkour felt really dull because i felt so restricted in the way i could move, but when i play Mirage later im gonna try all the things i just learned in ur video, and ill let u know if the ejects work for me and if it alters my parkour experience
Yes! I also noticed it, Basim would just NOT side eject if I didn't let him rest for a lil.. to be exact, whenever I'd climb up a wall without stopping and suddenly wanted to side eject, the mf would jump and hang from the same wall just 5 meters away from him, instead of letting go and jumping into a taller or shorter platform
@@Ropotopolous Some people did (to either promote the mods or insult this masterpiece(not a masterpiece but you know what I'm talking about)). Hey did u know that they added an really cool Ezio pfp on PS5 for those with the Premium subscription(I think).
@@sizeable-cult3169you don’t need premium you just need to sing in on the website with a qr code and you get it. You just need the minimum of an essential subscription
I played mirage and tried these ejects and they actually work bro i was so shocked lmao, definetly gave me a reason to parkour more in Baghdad, thanks bro.
7:10 I've found success side ejecting by waiting for him to settle while still holding parkour up. You can also animation cancel by letting him climb without holding X or R2 so he will climb normally (not climb leap) and while he is climbing press O input left or right to eject to your target. He will cancel his climb to eject (I found it more consistent with O than X but I think X works too)
Thank you! That's what I was going for. People take games to seriously. They're supposed to be fun. I feel it is my duty to inject my humor into my videos haha
5:18 Back ejects as a parkour down is actually a novel thought for me so thank you for sharing that There are a few places where back eject will gain height. But the street/targets have to be close enough together, and you have to hit them at the right height. Basim sometimes wants to parkour down from a back eject even when he's close. But if you climb up then back eject he goes up. It's hard to explain in a comment but like you said at the end of the video, practice and you will start recognizing his patterns.
Yeah. Keep in mind this tutorial was made before the update which allowed for height gaining ejects, which kinda ruins my parkour down philosophy but it was an upgrade none the less haha.
@@Ropotopolous and to be fair parkour down back ejects still work lol so this just adds to it. The skill gap is knowing when he will go up or down and using it intentionally
14:31 Diagonal wall runs can be achieved by holding diagonal parkour up at a wall, but the angle is sharper. It's actually easier to get from a perched position than standing. But it is possible, and also present in the other RPG Creeds
just started this game yesterday and watching this makes me so excited to play more and learn these mechanics. i haven't watched your other videos but im definitely going too after this, you're really good bro. and also you made this guide extremely entertaining, at least for me
Glad you enjoyed it. Some of the info in here is a bit dated because they updated the parkour right after this tutorial came out but all the techniques I talk about are still relevant.
Btw you can sprint while crou hed 😊 I also went the drop down and crouch being on L2 (hold), and I put the tool wheel on the left direction on the directional pad
I hope your videos never have professional quality production, that sh!t was hilarious and I'm here for it 😆Also, I appreciate having a tutorial for console players and only regret not finding your channel sooner. Side note, I watched the first part of the video twice, so hopefully that'll make up for a couple of those who skipped directly to the side eject chapter. What can I say, I'm slow and often need repeating.
One thing I wanna add is that ejects in this game are very contextual but they do work, they exist as you’ve shown but they are very dependent on proper movement input. Especially back ejects, side ejects are easy enough once you learn the distance but it’s more complex with back ejects. I’ve found many spots in the game where just doing a standard back eject by pressing parkour up from a ledge will have basim drop down to a point behind him, but if you hold back on the stick and parkour up he can do a further eject that will gain a bit of height. So you can play around with it but holding directional movement with a back eject can extend it. Anyways that’s my 2 cents lol great video bro, probably the best parkour guide I’ve seen since mirage has been out!
That's true, I didn't add anything about this because I can't really find a consistent rule about this, it seems to have an effect sometimes and sometimes it doesn't. So yes, if you tweak the left thumbstick up or down while doing a back eject it can sometimes effect his targeted location.
thank u for the tutorial! Also, on the point of embracing ur inner child I think this also applies to gaming as a whole, we do this to escape the world and have fun. that's the most imp thing, take it for what it is and enjoy it to the fullest.
future legend in the making for the ac community! i know you said that you didn't think there was a better setting for Tools other than Left Stick and I felt the same.. UNTIL I switched the configuration to L1 / LB! it was weird at first but I got used to it and found that it works perfectly for an old school kinda setup I have.. your vid may have inspired me to make my own "personal spin" on this game's parkour but for now.. since I think this video is gonna blow up for you, I figured I'd leave this here for anyone that is looking for some new settings to play Mirage with: Parkour Up / Sprint have both been mapped to R2: - This allows you to side eject similarly to games like Unity and Syndicate - Since we don't have a dedicated jump button anymore, I've found that tapping A to climb/parkour is a bit unnecessary. Vaulting also feels much more seamless as a result. Assassinate and Attack have been mapped to Square / X Drop Down / Crouch are still mapped on O / B but I use (Hold) to simulate a High Profile / Low Profile vibe from Classic AC Dodge / Roll are now mapped to X / A Focus is still mapped on Right Stick Eagle Vision is now mapped to Left Stick instead of D-Pad Left D-Pad Left has been mapped to Heal like the default setting in the Ezio games Parry is now mapped to R1 / RB to simulate the counter mechanic from AC1 to AC:Revelations Whistle and Call Mount are now mapped to D-Pad Down but with these settings, you can also put them on D-Pad Right Everything else is pretty much unchanged for me! I do play on PC with a DualSense so I've been spoiled with the Eject Mods and it's an absolute blast to run around Baghdad. The slide to roll mechanic is especially fun for gameplay :) I tried going back to Valhalla to test out Parkour in that game with the eject mod & these settings but goodness.. the fact that abilities and dual wielding are in the game make it pretty much impossible to map Sprint to anything other than Left Stick and the lack of a (Hold) setting for most buttons make the Combat system less flexible. Hope this helps someone that's trying to enjoy the freerunning / combat in this game as much as possible!
I was waiting for that comment! I did it similarly. R2 on hold for the sprint AND the jump button, like you're using it, might be the best decision in terms of controlls. It might be the case that you don't have that much perfect controll in every situation an if your a pro it might not be the best option but i think it makes the parkour so much more enjoyable. I also put the weappon wheel on L1. Also it seperated the the assasination from the light attack doe to the fact that in some scenarios I did a light attack even tho I intended a assasination. Makes things safer this way. I put the light attack on X ant the Parry on D-Pad-Down. It ist a strange position for such important functions but I use to solve open conflicts with smoke grenades and mines so open combat isn't that important, even tho you can still fight quite well. Crouch/Parkour Down is on R1 and on hold 'cause I had that way to often that I dropped from a rooftop an on the gound i was crouching around at minimum speed. That steels so much momentum. One downside of Crouch on R1 is that if you want to stay unseen you have to keep it hold which is annoying. Still, worth it. The rest is not that important: Dodge on CIRCLE, Assasination on SQUARE, Interact on TRIANGLE, everything else is on the D-Pad. Conclusion: My controlls favor simple Parkour and Stealth, but open Combad suffers quite much. Also: Sorry for my bad english
There's some good ideas in here, although I don't really like the idea of mapping parkour and sprint together at all. I use the parkour button as if it were a manual jump button constantly and it works well for me. I've had my controls this way for too long now to switch them up. I'm glad you found a nice configuration that works for you! Thanks for sharing, I'm sure someone will use your scheme.
This video is great, thank you! Man I've played 20 hours with the normal controls and got very used to them. Then I only learned about this remapping. I liked the controls of the originals better, it felt like you had to concentrate on the parkour more so navigating really felt like it's own challenges and the reward was (is) those sweet animations. Difficult to get used to though. Keep bringing up my tool wheel when I wanna move.
Edit: I just realized there is a chapter 5 in this video. Wow man. My brain is so fried. This is life with a newborn. Use protection. Before someone points this out, no I did not mislabel the chapters. Chapter 5 is the secret hidden chapter that you have to pay me to watch, that's why it seems to be missing....
@ulzaarian I'll just tell you right now. GOD tier: AC2 A tier: ac1, acb, acr B tier: Ac3, acbf, and rogue I guess C tier: Unity, Mirage D tier: Syndicate, Origins F tier: Odyssey, Valhalla Strange how it's almost entirely in chronological order...
@@Ropotopolous no matter whether the tier list is about Parkour or Stealth and no matter which content creator or redditor made the tier list, Assassin's Creed Valhalla is always in the worst category/tier list XD. P.S: What software do you use for video editing?
@@destroyer9588 when I saw they were releasing it early I was like aww yea they patched out all the awkward looking stuff from the early game showcase lol but nah they just released it as is
Saw the new update info and they say they did improve and made the side and back injects better to longer and higher ones and the parkour overall better let's hope and see
Hey! Ubisoft released the 1.0.6 patch and it fixes side and back ejects! (For the most part, it's not a 100% consistent) I tested it for a few minutes and it's a great improvement
i maybe have an idea for being able to do omni directional catch ledge by using the slow motion knife throw in order to turn yourself towards a ledge in range to grab onto as your falling. could potentially work on ledges behind you depending on the situation
That's a really cool idea. I'll see if I can make that happen. He can typically grab a ledge at 90⁰ even so the ledge would have to be fully behind him in orde for this to be useful, and it might be hard to even end up in that situation haha
that’s why i said depending on the situation presented. just spitballing some ideas since i figured it could be used as a substitute for 360 degree catch ledge being gone
Lovely guide Ropotopolous, the tip about changing the reticle color was a game changer for me as I always had trouble distinguishing the crouching vs standing state while moving around. Your movement in the game looks awesome and it makes me happy to see other people enjoying this game so much (I have been busy lately and haven't been able to play as much as I'd like) As I am new here, I'd like to ask, what is your favorite AC game? EDIT: Also I have tool wheel mapped to downward d-pad (hold) and this seems to circumnavigate the issue with selecting tools causing Basim to drop while on a wall. I mapped heal to double tap on downward d-pad (I took this from Leo K)
Nice, I'm glad the reticle thing was helpful for someone. AC2 has always been my favorite. The old school parkour mechanics and map design are so good, the soundtrack is perfect and I think it's aged really well. Such a classic game. Mapping tool wheel to down arrow with heal on double tap does make sense. Shout out Leo K. Maybe I'll try it but at this point I've been rocking my current setup for so long it might be a jarring shift to try to change it now.
@@Ropotopolous AC2 is indeed a banger. Understandable about remapping the tool wheel input, even with the inputs like you have it you probably don't run in to conflicts that much
Thank you so much for this guide. Unrelated question, I noticed when you perform aerial throwing knife kills, it doesn’t always look like they are headshots, yet your targets seem to still die in one hit. Is the camera angle just weird and you really are hitting all headshots, or is there some secret I don’t know that allows for a body shot to one hit? I play on the hardest difficulty and am trying to get better at aerial throwing knife kills.
Glad you enjoyed the guide. Yep, one of the knife perks that you can choose at the bureau is a damage increase that allows for a one shot kill anywhere.
@@Ropotopolous oh wow, I’ve been using the plus 50% damage perk but it still only ever gets them to about 1/4 health. Guess I’ll keep practicing; thank you!
One thing I really wish they’d do is get camera relative ejects back. Since the stick on console has multi directional movement, keyboard is kind of handicapped since they removed camera relativity :(
Kinda, but as far as the techniques that I talk about and what buttons to press and when, nothing has changed as far as I can tell. So all of that information is still relevant
They're really contextual. In my experience I found they work best if you look straight at the object you want to dive to, but they don't always work. One of mirages least consistent moves.
Any good AC parkour should take skill and a bit of practice to use. Scaling entire buildings and performing all kind of moves that would take an insane amount of skill in the real world shouldn't be effortless in a game. AC fans are torn between wanting a fully manual system that allows for complete player control, and having a fully automated system that looks flashy and allows you to do spinning controlled descents with the push of a single button. Mirage is the closest thing they've ever made to bridging the gap between both. If this is a system that looks good in the hands of a skilled player, then it's a good system.

Another thing I learned you can do smooth roll like in Origins
When jump and falling down press A/X button to make Basim smoothly roll
Not gonna lie ive been turned off from mirage but was bored this popped up, yours is the first vid that has made me think oooh it looks fun
It is fun. If you give yourself a chance to learn how it flows its really satisfying

That is a mystery even I can't solve.
One thing I really wish they’d do is get camera relative ejects back. Since the stick on console has multi directional movement, keyboard is kind of handicapped since they removed camera relativity :(
So, once you get the hang of it is sorta like Black Flag parkur system?
5:55 how did you back eject right there you say you use parkour down is that holding or tapping B?
Got a drop a new one of these after update 😂
Unlucky that since the new update dropped parkour got changed a little bit. Would be cool to see what to do with this improved mecanics
Kinda, but as far as the techniques that I talk about and what buttons to press and when, nothing has changed as far as I can tell. So all of that information is still relevant
@@Ropotopolous true. What do you think about the changes?
@lennoxax929 so far so good. It'll take some getting used to but I'm excited for the potential of making more cool clips.
How do you do that awesome dive that was in unity? I’ve done it before in this game but no idea how to trigger it
They're really contextual. In my experience I found they work best if you look straight at the object you want to dive to, but they don't always work. One of mirages least consistent moves.
It’s insane how Ubisoft stays making bad parkour and need fans to make it look decent 😭
Any good AC parkour should take skill and a bit of practice to use. Scaling entire buildings and performing all kind of moves that would take an insane amount of skill in the real world shouldn't be effortless in a game.
AC fans are torn between wanting a fully manual system that allows for complete player control, and having a fully automated system that looks flashy and allows you to do spinning controlled descents with the push of a single button. Mirage is the closest thing they've ever made to bridging the gap between both.
If this is a system that looks good in the hands of a skilled player, then it's a good system.
How are ur throwing knifes 1 hitting enemies?
Like i swear ur hitting the body and it 1 hit?
Yep. It's one of the knife upgrade perk things.
This side eject method does not work for me at ALL
Lmao my guy can press a button and move a joy stick and suddenly he thinks he's a god lmao. Cute youtuber
Say a prayer, bitch.
I love Mirage, but the parkour down is not even remotely as smooth ❤
It doesnt look good at all
My parkour is the best in town, bud.
It's about how parkour looks in this game in general@@Ropotopolous
@mggt4684 haha alright I got you. Well I like it. I'm an optimist.
@@RopotopolousIt looks far from as bad as the combat looks so there's that I guess 😅
