Put on some 40kg of battlegear and start jumping... count the times you can do in a row without breaking your momentum... ;)

P.S.: The game is open source. You may code a deathmatch mode yourself or find someone to do it for you! ;)

I agree though it should be a bit more. As apparentyl over 100kg of metal lets you jump more :D

Also it seems they can sprint for miles with those packs but can't jump with them ;)

Gimini needs his own threat for complains! :P


[Ok, seriously. I think 4-5 time would be nice. And also, a change in the hud to make you know you have no energy left (like when it lights red when the buil-timer is running and you try build smt)]

It doesn't really bother me unless there's crappy builders.

Then, it causes problems because you can't jump over turrets to get into your base.

Humans already have 3 stripes indicating stamina next to their health counter.

Totally agree with that. You have to wait for your stamina to fill back (damn Aliens never run out of stamina...)

I know, but it doesn't light up in blue or any other color. It doesn't flash. It just shows you the level of energy.

Ever heard of Halo, and the SPARTAN armor. Alone, Master Chief weighs about 600 lbs, with armor he weighs several tons. He moves and jumps pretty well. What i am getting at is that the equipment has technology to AMPLIFY movement.

Yeah, but unlimited stamina wouldn't be fair for Humans. They could easily dodge Dragoon pounce attacks, sprint from danger and follow injured Aliens to the end of the world... :)

yeah, but Halo had a 'intertial compensator' or some such built into the armour, which makes pipe dreams more realistic.

You'd still have the powersuit exoskeleton which would allow you to walk using that bsuit, but those don't help jumping, they actually restrict your legs so you wouldn't be able to jump anyway.

Isn't the battlesuit limited to 2 jumps btw ?
