Trick Jump Showcase - Chapel


(Melinder) #1

A small showcase of the useful trick jumps that I know of. There may be others that I’m not aware of, however I can’t imagine there would be any rewarding ones as I scanned the map quite thoroughly.

A lot of these jumps are common, so this is more directed towards newer players I suppose, thought there might be a few some semi-experienced players may not be aware of.

If this gets decent feedback I would consider doing the other maps, also.

All jumps were done on Sparks (470 move speed)

Nice one! I thought the stairs to garage jump got edited out. Which loadout did you use?


(Melinder) #3

Video was recorded on a local server, so I only had access to the stock loadouts.

Great one, really. I learned the right side up onto the defenders wall into their spawn.
What I missed were some of the rollout double wall jumps for the defenders, to be a bit faster on the objective. Less useful but fun is the jump at the last stage from the containers onto the busstation and over to generator wall.

That sounds quite useful to me!

Does level 27 count as semi-experienced? I didn’t know most of those :tongue: Although lots of them you know multiple ways, whereas I only know one way.

Is 13 forum likes and 3 YouTube likes enough decent feedback for you to do the other maps? I’ll watch them, I promise!

I had a quick look at the other maps. Sad to say there aren’t very many on the other maps, but i’ll start working on a single video showing all the jumps I know on the rest of the maps!

I’d like to see if all those jumps also work with a heavy merc like Fragger. Of course a Merc like Sparks is a fast bouncy ball but do all of this jumps work for the heavy ones too?
I did some of them with Fragger but some don’t seem to be that easy with lower speed.

It helps to point out which are long jumps.

Personally, I find a double jump off the fence to be easier than bouncing back off the railing for the flanking jump.

Just tried the second jump of the video with Rhino. Either I’m to bad or “being a little more conservative” is an understatement. This jump with Rhino works for me in about 1/20 jumps, so not that effective in a game anymore.

I’m 99.9% sure that the second jump is possible on all mercs. I do it a lot as Sparks, but i also do it a lot as Arty. To my knowledge, all mercs have the same vertical jump height, it’s just the movement speed that alters the distance jumps.

That’s service, thx for the fast video reply :slight_smile:

I’ll give it another try now.
