jumping while in a gun fight??

[Blackburn]

yes that issue need to be sorted i came accross some one last night as well who was jumping like crazy to avoid not being shot, and because this jumping thing it made it very hard for me to hit him and i was struk down

Sure, Battlefield 2 is more like an arcade, still there should be something to prevent that.

what about if one jump took some stamina, but if you jumped right after the first one, it took 20% more and so on, so that jumping many times in a row would exhaust you.

3 jumps puts you out of stamina in BF2 pretty much but you can still jump without it its pointless. They need to just make jumping just like sprinting and make it not possible if your out of stamina.

[cavemanuk]

You would think they would make use of their stamina gauge and make jumping cost like 40% of your total stamina or something. Then, after a few hops you wouldn't be able to jump or run and would have to *gasp* fight like a man.

I agree.. For the people who say that its just an "arcadey" game and its not meant to be realistic, fair enough, but if your gonna have silly jumps, then you should be able to run all the time too and not get out of breath....

personally i hate the jumping as it spoils the fun and skill of actually playing the game.

We know its not supposed to be realistic, but there is a degree of realism in the game which is why its popular in the first place.

I for one hope they tie in the jumps directly to the stamina meter and make it so you cant jump as high when your tired.

bunny hopping isn't a skill, theres no skill in hitting the space bar over and over.... it just looks stupid and unrealisitic. But then again shooting someone 5 times with a pistol and them not going down is unrealistic too. I haven't come across many bunny hoppers that I couldn't kill.. only one time... this guy was bunny hopping and as he'd land he'd go prone then bunny hop, then prone again.. it was the most ridiculous thing I've ever seen... but I still ran up to him and killed him close range.

I laugh when ever I kill someone who is hopping around like an idiot.. I remember one time I killed this one retard hopping around and he respawned right away and knifed me.. and he was laughing about it... but I still got the last word when I said, at least I didn't die bunny hopping around like a retard.

*gasp* nooooooo!!!!!!

lol. but bein slightly more serious now, i know that most of us bunny hop because lets face it. you dont want to die anymore thant the other guy. so as long as it increases my chances of living ill continue bunny hopping.

[Destroyer]

oh god, counter-strike is probably where bunny hopping was born. its all bunny hopping. and in cs, when you jump, your crosshair expands so far there is no point in shooting

umm bunny hopping originated form quake just to let y ou guys know

[atarigod2600]

I don't have a problem with killing people who bunny hop. I don't really see it as a issue.. If it was enough for you to make a thread about then EA is doing fine if that's all you have.

[Stripper_Clown]

Hopping is ****ing gay, anyone who hops is gay, and more over anyone who defends it and doesnt want it balanced is even more gay.

Generalizations like that not only make you look stupid, but they tend to piss of a lot of people as well. Not everyone does the hoppy sh*t intentionally, some people panic when someone pops around a corner and the smash every key on their keyboard. Others are used to hoppy games like UT2004, and they are just carrying it over from there.

Don't think that I don't want it fixed, though. I do believe that you should not be able to hop like a horny rabbit the whole time. 2-3 hops and your feet should be planted on the ground for a bit.

[DimmuBorgir]

only once have a jumped and sniped someone at the same time, i felt good about myself

[sra_slimshady]

Yes, I have jumped in utter fear before, but I hate ****ers that start jumping up and down from side to side when you snipe at them, its an obvious way of exploiting one of the games few crappy features. It really just ****ing steams me, like the other guy said, you dont see our soldiers in iraq hopping all over the ****ing sand when some lead comes their way.. in fact a real soldier would be smart enough to do just the opposite, I E FIND ****ING COVER FAST!

[sra_slimshady]

oh ya and, KILL TIM RUSSERT! LMAO

[[LG]Cataclysm]

oh ya and, KILL TIM RUSSERT! LMAO

ROFL

I admit to mashing the space bar when a guy pops out at me from around a corner, but I never bunnyhop... I've seen people do it and I promptley kill them with my PKM.

I was playing BF2 last night from 8pm to 2 am and I noticed something that needs to be changed or modified. When you are in a gun fight you should not be able to jump 8 feet in the air. This is very unrealistic. I am sure our guys over in Iraq are not running 3 steps then jumping in the air 8 feet to avoid being shot. I understand the need to jump onto things but when you are in the middle of the street or in the mountains you should not be able to jump like that. Its just stupid.

It was a lot of fun playing last night. I was on one server the whole time and everyone on our squad was using the VIOP. Made the game so much better than hitting buttons to talk to your teammates.

well, hey, its a game.
if you want reality, go get shot in iraq...
thats reality...

in reality, you dont respawn
in reality, you get nothing but 1 shot kills.

gg

Somehow they were able to magically do away with this problem in DoD.

Those developers were able to solve the mystery and keep the balance of gameplay just fine.

[glasseye]

Bunnyhopping = skill. The people who use it are those that understand the essence of the game. You're a fool if you want them to change something that'll give a skilled player like yourself an advantage over others.

funniest thing i've read all day.
dont waste your time here, you need to go out into the world and share your hilarious wisdom w/ everybody.
