I loved the way worms world party did ninja roping. The thrill of the game came from being able to deftly maneuver your worm across a map using a ninja rope, drop a weapon while still on the rope, and then navigate back to a safe spot. Can you still drop weapons while using the rope? How similar are the ninja rope mechanics in this game to other worms world party games? How do the physics of the game compare to the other titles? Are all of the various jumping maneuvers still intact? Also, are there any unlockable or optional weapons aside from the 22 already listed? Why can't there be any weapon downloads in the future?

Take a looky at this site, it has a good number of rope tricks.

Most of those rope tricks will be impossible on Worms XBLA.

Oh I dunno about that I'm not that good at all and I've managed to do quite a bit of the basic ones and a few of the others. Just takes a little but more finesse because it seems like the rope mechanics (speeds and such) are a little bit different. Then again they may not, I can't seem to find my copy of Worms Arm to check it out.

But hey,
how can I even only get up at an edge?
I don't get it.
It's not the same as with a keyboard and anyway it's not the same :)
Help me. I want to use a ninja rope as it should be used.

The rope may share the code from Worms 2 but the worm is much heavier and falls very rapidly. It makes swinging against gravity more difficult. It takes a lot more time to get momentum. It does look cool how the worm flips in the air and some nice moves can be done but it's not Worms2/WWP/WA.
