Keep e presses lads. No need to time it.

But you feel so much cooler when you do!

I like jumping from heights and grabbing zip lines mid air.

Feels so badass and looks pretty cool too.
Just don't miss!

I've done this so many times ...
[Rockin' super cool background music]
[I'm badass gunner at edge of huge cliff]
[Whip out badass line launcher, ZOOOOOP instant zip set up to canyon floor]
[Jump forward to zip down super fast in dramatic and cool way as rockin' background music rises rises to crescendo]
[RECORD SCRATCH music suddenly goes silent as I plummet straight down]
[Sad trombone plays as I lie there glowing red, "DON'T LEAVE ME, I NEED HELP"]

“You’re probably wondering how I ended up this way.”

Wah wah wah waaaaaah

Holding the grab button is the way.

The number of times I've died to predatory gravity... I swear, it lurks in the darkness or just over ledges before leaping out and getting me!

Hold down E, it will automatically grab on as soon as you are in range.

Whoa that's an old one, haven't seen this meme in years

ROCK AND STOOOOOOooooooooooone…………

See, I always run and jump BEFORE grabbing the zipline. Gets me further down the line before I have to ride the escalator.

Holding the interact button will always grab it this works on all platforms. You can grab ziplanes I think land on pipes you have grab a ledge mid fall as well you can jump onto a teammate to break your fall as well

Anyone else noticed how zip lines are broken now? Most of the time, pressing E no longer goes back up the zip line, I have to actually face the direction I wanna go. Also, if there’s another zip line slightly close or overlapping and I press E near it, it transfers me to that zip line. I’m a gunner, I’ve only been gunner and after 800 hours of gameplay this ruins a lot for me. I do 75% of my fighting from zip lines and this makes it a chore to move back and forth.
Can anyone tell me if this is some new “feature” or just a bug in my end?

It's definitely a "new" behavior that started with season 2. The facing direction thing still gets me from time to time and I try to be cognizant of where I shoot zips so there's less overlap.

Yeah I don’t see any actual benefits to how they are now

I feel so epic shooting a zipline and then immediately grabbing it and speeding down. Never gets old.

meta strat with zipline, just hover on it and shoot down at the bugs, atleast until a mactera shoots you off

Jump and press w at the same time instead. You’ll have time to grab it now. This is how I fixed my deficiency.

Yelling "Rock and Stone" will in fact not let you grab ziplines. Careful out there ladz.

We fight for Rock and Stone!

Try E

Where my thrust boot enthusiasts at ?

Hold E. You don't need ultra gamer reflexes: you'll automatically grab on.
Does that work for Xbox also?
Yeah same with pipelines, as long as you land on it while holding x you'll be fine!
Thank you! I never knew that! I was always just trying to get the timing right. I could most of the time. I really appreciate it!
If you hold the button while grinding during the broken pipe phases, you will stop at the first broken part. It helps avoid overshooting the spot.
Just don't do that if you're engi and your turrets are out
Works on ps as well so I assume yes
I think this would as pretty sure holding x works when falling onto refinery pipes when falling from a height.

I thought I might have, Reddit lagged out while sending the comment haha, thx!
Does Xbox have an "E"?
