Seems like some players fly around the maps at impossible speed! I've asked while playing on occasion, but nobody is able (or willing) to give an answer. Any comments?

I usually fly around using strafe jumping, when you strafe and jump at the same time and keep doing it to gather speed...at least thats what I do.

couscous ...
to strafe jump you have to change the direction of your movement slightly from side to side each time you jump.
You can practice yourself on e.g. DM8 on the bottom floor to and from the SSG. Nice long stretch to run. Bring down console and type "map q2dm8". That will start a game on Warehouse and you have only yourself to fight :-)
I strafe moving the mouse slightly sideways at the same time as I press jump. First left, then right, then left, then ...
Your speed will increase after every jump.
Practice and soon you also may be flying :-)

Thanks much for the advice. I predict a little more speed soon! (then I can work more on skill).
Thanks again.

We like to call it the "bunny hop" BTW ..You can do it right right in some instances..and gain more than normal speed...such as when you are already flying along...and a nice small crate or something comes along...then you double jump and fly far.Its fun to play maps with those types of topography.

NOOO! Dont do left left, that makes you do a jump that could potentially snap your legs in 2!

starfe jumping is not the only way to increase your speed
set cl_forwardspeed 1500
set cl_sidespeed 1500
set cl_upspeed 1500
set cl_yawspeed 1000
will make a difference

Not to be a smartass but believe bunnyjumping is primarily used for the qw way of speedjumping where you by turning and strafing while midair will gain speed thus being able to jump around corners and not only in an almost straight line (without holding in the forward key, except for the initial jump). I think most people refer to the speedjumping in quake2 where you need to hold in forward and strafe (and cannot jump around corners as with bunnyjumping) as just speedjumping or turbojumping or maybe even strafejumping. Damn, think I'm just being a smartass after all, not that I'm helping in any way.

Just to make up for my smartass nonhelping comment. This is where I learned to speedjump as a newbie, don't know if others find it helpfull, but it's a good site to start out in my humble opinion.
