Title: [HUGE] A HUGE Idea... A NEW Style of Tremulous
Post by: Evlesoa on December 16, 2006, 02:15:29 am: First... watch this...

This guy is simply, one of the best ive ever seen. I cannot make those crazy ass jumps, he is prob going nearly 100 miles an hour per jump, and I can only do about 50-60, unless its an ice slide, but this isnt an ice slide... That guy is AMAZING! I can do similar stuff he can, just shorter distance!

NOW...

Idea...? Well the idea is... Since Wolfenstein runs Quake 3, and this game runs quake 3, why not make a gamma map? Where you get to, as a dretch, or as a marauder, or something, jump like that? The way it works is, there is a glitch in Quake 3, that allows you to turn, and therefor when turning the right way, and strafing, lets you to JUMP FASTER, AND MUCH MUCH FARTHER THAN POSSIBLE... Dont believe me??

Here is a full explanation! http://www.velocity.lunarpages.com/trickjumping.html

Now... my idea is, its only aliens, or only humans (would have to have a patch for humans, where they have infinite stamina for jumping, + being able to change direction without losing the sprint function X) have a gamma jump. There are many jumps, but this is a gamma jump there. So what happens is, there is a reactor, and you have to kill it... by steppin on some activator that is behind it... First kill the forcefield, but you have to jump and jump till you get to it, and careful you don't fall and die... So then you get to the force field, shut it down (you can stop, but it will be hard, to get back into speed due to the gamma bars being further and further apart)... and you just keep going till you kill the spawn... or reactor, or some shit that there is to end the objective... Im personally, a very good TrickJumper, and ive mastered it almost from Wolfenstein... I will be willing to participate in tests, and i think this would bring a new meaning to Tremulous!

If you want to have proper trick jumping go play some Defrag.

hmm... dretches strafe-run pretty nicely. I guess you refer only to humans, right?
That being said, I see no point in making a trick-jumps version of Trem. If you like tricks, you should try defrag or Warsow.

i didn't say it was capped at your base speed, you gain quite a bit by strafejumping, but you don't keep gaining speed indefinitely like they did in that video.

Post by: Evlesoa on December 16, 2006, 07:57:59 pm: heh, yeah i know... but still, you could make a map that goes to that limit... still be fun!
Title: [HUGE] A HUGE Idea... A NEW Style of Tremulous
Post by: Thorn on December 16, 2006, 08:08:22 pm: OR you could do whats already been suggested and play defrag.

Now , go find lags the movie and learn.

no it won't, I'm a horrible trickjumper, but i would easily be able to get through any tremulous trickjump maps because of the limit.

Try Warsow then, it's free: www.warsow.net

Post by: Bajsefar on December 19, 2006, 11:13:45 am: What would be fun would be a race map for goons or marauders... Preferrably goons.

Post by: KnightBear on December 29, 2006, 08:14:49 am: lol, but at least nearly everyone agrees that it would be pointless.

so, who is trully owned?

<_<

Post by: Lava Croft on December 29, 2006, 05:19:00 pm: Thorn, since Tremulous is indeed a DeathMatch game.

Post by: n00b pl0x on December 29, 2006, 09:48:20 pm: We should get rid of stamina for humans and give humans uberjumps so they can bunny trick jump!!! liek zomg it would be so cools
Title: [HUGE] A HUGE Idea... A NEW Style of Tremulous
Post by: Thorn on December 29, 2006, 11:14:12 pm: Tremulous is NOT a deathmatch. It is a TEAM GAME.
Title: [HUGE] A HUGE Idea... A NEW Style of Tremulous
Post by: techhead on December 30, 2006, 03:27:09 am: Like CTF?
Tremulous as CTF scares me.
Marauders would always win.
Title: [HUGE] A HUGE Idea... A NEW Style of Tremulous
Post by: kozak6 on December 30, 2006, 06:16:20 am: If each team had a mixture of humans and aliens, it might work a little better.
Title: [HUGE] A HUGE Idea... A NEW Style of Tremulous
Post by: Neo on December 30, 2006, 02:01:53 pm: Well for a start CTF would have to be human v human. Pointy legs aren't very good at holding poles :D

Besides, Trem is a Team Deathmatch game ;)
Title: [HUGE] A HUGE Idea... A NEW Style of Tremulous
Post by: KnightBear on January 02, 2007, 07:27:29 pm: ill compromise on team deathmatch game.

Only humans can hold the flag. Protect the flag carrier! and don't bite him in the head :p

Post by: Bajsefar on January 10, 2007, 11:43:02 am: Sorry for necromancing, but i said RACING not trickjumps, there is actually some skill involved in moving a goon as fast as possible in turny hallways.
