Please let this have a grapple in it. It seems redundant at first since you have a jet pack, but learning to both ski and slingshot yourself around in Vengeance was so freaking fun. You could get up to ridiculous speeds and never stop, slingshot yourself around hairpin turns, fall from way up and latch onto a building at the last second and you'd be off as fast as a missile.

      Personally I dont have a problem with the Grapple on Torque. Chasing and sniping shouldnt be as bad. It would be fun as hell sniping grapples out of the air.
