I've got it!

Maybe they can have 100+ players around because they aren't passing jump instructions to clients! It's the doom 2 engine! Horah!

j/k!

hah, u want an outdated engine try halflife/quake 2.

Man just when i thought that engine had been driven into the freakin ground... BAM Natural Selection comes along.

I feel sorry for Natural Selection, that game is way to good to be using that engine.

Yea... ok. That's why you're going to be playing a game with warp gates and laser weapons.

Why would jumping allow you to "enhance" your speed at all? This would be totally unrealistic and unnecessary. You must be thinking of the "bunny-hopping" exploit of Half-Life. I can see no reason a coder would purposefully make jumping let you move faster. Skiing a'la Tribes Jetpacks isn't possible here.

Ill refer you RIGHT back to the first sentence that you seemed to not have read:

"And btw(this question is directed towards the pro Quakers), will the jumping enhance speed at all?"

I put those quotations in there for you guys to read...

No no...just stating that there will be no repeats of what took place lastnight on a diff. thread. I agree there should be jumping capabilities, just don't agree with the "UT2K3 hopping" capabilities!

I never said anything abou "double jumping". I simply used that game along with several other games as a reference to FIRST PERSON SHOOTERS that have a "jump" ability.

UT2k3 is a DISGRACE of a FPS.

Jumping was not a skill in T2.

Using your jetpack and killing those who used it effectively is.

If you didnt jump right before you jetted, than you didnt make it anwhere... indoors and outdoors. Everyone who knows how to play T2, knows that.

hahaha love these Bunny-hoppers...I take it that they believe they'll be able to be leet if they do it....aka BF1942....
Just keep hopping you won't have time to return fire...
Death to the bunny-hoppers

I would suggest that pissing actually has more to do with the game than jumping.

In modern combat, soldiers do not hop around like bunnies. Ever. At all. Climbing, crawling, sprinting - yes, hopping like kangaroos on caffeine, no. You throw on a 60lb pack and carry a rifle in both arms and then try hopping around and see how far you get.

However, how many times has a soldier had to leave his post to take a piss? Almost every time a soldier has had to stand guard for a long duration of time. I propose mandatory pissing breaks every 3 hours. This of course will favor male characters, who have a simpler process, but you can't have everything totally balanced.

...another "i want realism" post, in a game that has respawning, lasers, warp gates, and infinite ammo.

I think that the jumping should be like Halflife, where you don't go very high and when you land you slow down significantly, also aim is horrid in the air. I think that this format is optimal for a good FPS that is more "life-like". The stamina idea sounds like a good one but I don't think that the stamina should last very long at all.

Anyone that uses Half-Life as an example of something that should be used in a REAL FPS... is automatically ignored.

In short: Half-Life is crap.

The "bunnyhopping" in UT2K3 is ridiculous, I agree with Toimu. As far as all fps having jumping, Ghost Recon,SOAF,(Clancy Games) don't usually have jumping capabilities. I agree totally in having stamina being a factor...very realistic!

"Ghost Recon,SOAF,(Clancy Games)"

Those are a JOKE. It's insulting to have those crap games in the same genre as Quake.

I use jumping a lot in MoH, and I don't bunnyhop. I jump out windows, I jump from ledge to ledge, I jump off edges and shoot people on the ground in the head several times before landing. I use it to escape when I'm near a window. It's very helpful, but there's no reason to spam it, because it isn't to hard to hit a hopper. Also, how will 2 feet make a difference when my Reaver shoots a rocket? Less flight time IMHO.

MoH was a Quake3 Engine game...
