Our thoughts on more S.M.A.R.T. (moves and areas.)

The gag was that it didn’t work, it was supposed to look like i was aiming for the window, and then intentionally stood around looking depressed when the gren knockback turned out to be worthless. Please don’t get any ideas about it being a valid way to boost yourself around the map.[/QUOTE]

D’oh! (I find myself saying that a lot on this forum recently.)

Thanks for the clarification,

swinging would be a nice touch. Like assassins creed with the flower pots, except brink could have hanging light fixtures or exposed dead wires. Possibly including melee attacks using s.m.a.r.t God knows it would be awesome to wall jump for extra momentum to punch a guy out. or even Building enough speed and doing a Captain Kirk style drop kick.

Yes, I tried various combination with nades, to no avail. You are KO when jumping on a nade, and it usually throws you laterally without much vertical component, so

  1. it will not help you jumping higher
  2. you are unable to do any action, vaulting, etc… when knocked back by a nade

I also tried with various nade launchers instead of standard grenades. Nothing better

What I didn’t try is group trickjump. Can you use a teammate body as an help for a jump?

Good question, I remember a few games where you could get up higher if a buddy crouched down and you jumped onto them. I’ll test this tonight when my wife gets home from work.

What are you using to capture the video without killing your fps? Nice vid too, a couple of those I hadn´t seen yet.

How many people nail the Parkour Move challenge? This really lets you see some inventive ways to Parkour. Best I did it was 28 seconds.

I get it done in 21 secs. 3star Parkour Challenge. Those getting it done in 18 seconds have Jacky Chan blood.

It’s FRAPS, and it does kill my FPS compared to what i normally get, i’m on ATI as well. I still pull out about 30fps with it running though, which is sufficient to get some silly stuff recorded for a vid. If you’ve tried an old version of FRAPS before i suggest looking at more recent versions, because they generally improve performance quite a lot with each update.

I just had a go at that the other day because it was mentioned in here, and video’d it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RXRyopOiGdc

I think mine is slightly faster than the other 18 second run, because my final score is slightly higher on the same route, but it’s hard to tell because any previous runs only have the time in whole seconds instead of hundreths.
