2vs2 - DaHanG OWNS [TC]Granny in teams, HILARIOUS - q2dm1

[console]

I agree w/ granny(about the only thing) about the set up in dm1 having a coorelation with the 3.15+ physics... The distances between the jumps are just too perfect.. I mean why would they create the set up to DJ then strafe to mega(tall block, small block w/ backpack armor, and even smaller block)??? Stuff like that are obvious signs to me that they planned to change the physics later on..

Here's an interesting test, though.  Load up q2 and set sv_airaccelerate to 10, then map q2dm1.  According to the 3.19 release notes, this gives you the 3.15 physics back.  How many of your favorite edge jumps can you still do?

I dunno, maybe Tim Willits would say, yes, we planned these jumps all along, but it took until 3.19 until we finished tweaking the physics--changes that affect possible jumps on every map ever made--just so edge could be perfect.  Maybe so.  But it still seems unlikely to me.

talking shit to others to get the focus off of yourself is useless at this point..go play luci..get pwned..say gg..and have a good day..

ztn2dm2 is the best map w/ airaccel in q2 imo. you can get pretty fuckin fast with it if u are good, but if ure not ull be very slow :p

It's obvious that Granny knows he'd lose to Luci, since q2dm1 is the 5th map choice, and Granny says he's dodging playing dm1..looks like someone knows they wouldn't make it to the 5th map.

What kind of motion do you have to make with the mouse or keyboard to go fast with air accel on?  I was trying strafing and/or circling and it didn't seem to work at all.

[daelmun]

It's a bit different. Start of with a sorta circlejump, than maintain speed by NOT pressing forward, but just holding in strafe sideways as well as turning the mouse and jumping (like speedjumping). It takes a bit to get used to, but you can get pretty high speed, and you gain speed by turning corners (90 degree turns and so on).

First jump: hold in forward turn and strafe, once airborn, let go of the forward key and just strafe and turn and jump for as long as you're floating around ;P To jump straight ahead, you need to jump in a zig zagging way, turning corners is the easiest part though.

EDIT: lol, horrible stuff but you get the idea maybe. Only strafing+forward

[naymlis]

gaining the speed is the difficult part.. u can get it by just doing alot of turns and stair jumps.. or u can start off ur run with a foward rj.. airaccel would be really fun if you could strafe jump too (like cpma and warsow)

[daelmun]

Yeah, you need to change direction of the first jump by turning the opposite way + switch strafe key just as you're airborne. Then gain speed by turning around corners or even jump around in circles. Not as effective the first few jumps as the standard strafejumps, but once you get the speed it's not very hard too gain or maintain speed as long as you don't gluestep, hit corners/walls or get stuck in stairs (which I do all the damn time). Wee, fun stuff though, allthough different ;P

And yeah, bunnyjumping along with strafejumping is really nice.

reply to lucis post lil girl quit avoiding it...

[Spawn.Ds]

I dont think anyone would ever guess why tc only has two players 

[naymlis]

as for the armour to light beside mega to mega, ive done it first try in 3 of the demo's ive posted so far, this is not even close to 1 of the hardest jumps on edge. and yet maybe 5-6 ppl can do it 

i barely know anyone who could do this jump.. i seen confuzed do it a couple times and seen demos of it by other ppl i dont know of but no one else.. i dont think u know what jump he's talking about.. the middle small box on mega room's armor.. jump from chaingun stairs to middle, dj the small box to the light all the way by mega.. u wont touch the other boxes. this is one of the hardest jumps on dm1.. ill be suprised if u could do it one out of 15 tries

[Luci]

that is an insanely hard jump i almost always hit my head.
i have seen it done on the bottom box the bottom small box as well.

[haunted]

yeah it's definitely hard.. I can hit it every so often.. it's annoying

[haunted]

i get the one from shells to hyper ledge across the arena all the time granny... ive done it 3x in a row before
