STRAFE JUMPING HELP
Moderator: Core Staff
Man ! how are you guys doing this? i have watched the demos and ... shall i u run, turn left/right (mouse) at the same time u move left/right (default buttons) and jump... ? .. but when im shall move left or right with the buttom, shall i hold Down W and A for exaple ?... or should i only press down A ?
it depends only upon your style in truth. For example, me and luke jump totally differently, yet the strafe jump still works for both of us (even though he is friggin fifty times better than me...hacker). If you curve to the left then you will press a and vice versa. i personally press a right before i jump and hold in throughout my jump.

Despite the lack of assistance... I've managed to get a strafe jump technique that is, in my opinon, fairly decent. Yet, I still find myself unable to make the impressive jumps, like those of the demos. Is there some sort of secret to making the lengthy jumps like on "Toujane"? Because I seem to be getting really close, but I just do not have the height to get my feet up. Could it just be that I am compeltely incappable of making these jumps because my FPS are too low (I run 125)? Any help would be appreciated.
And please tell me if I need to clarify anything. I tried to be as precise as possible.

Most jumps can be done with 125, but some that require more height require 333.
The secret to being able to make "impressive jumps" is to practice. Just because the demo shows the person doing the jump first time, doesnt mean that was their first attempt. In many cases, people can record demos a ton of times, I remember recording the nade jump on to the mayors house chiney about 50+ times. At the time the jump for me was extremely hard but persistence paid off.

Basically, as 9mm explained to me... You stand at an angle of your target, preferably 45 degrees for beginners. Then run at an angle, turn at the last minute and jump, the strafe key you hold in depends on the direction of the angle. If you're looking right then hold in left, if you're looking left then hold in right.
I've taken a technique from my friend weEzy. Basically, all strafe jumps must consist of holding a strafe key, and running at any angle at some point in time. His technique - which seems to be easier because you can stand anywhere you want - is to turn at your angle when you start running, then turn straight and jump, while holding in the appropriate strafe key.

Re:
you JUMP and then you start moving the mouse and pressing different keys and whatever? and is jumping SUPPOSED to look like that? you jump and in the air and in the air you do all the stuff? does it change anything? sounds extremely unconvincing to me.KalDran? wrote:when I strafejump I run, jump and in the air I continue to hold W, I flip my mouse to the right and add A, turn a bit further with my mouse, release W, and press S

Re: STRAFE JUMPING HELP
You flick your mouse first followed by a jump.

Re:
That is basicly the old way of strafejump. Standing at 90 degrees and not flick, but turn your mouse instead. is the new way. Hold the strafekey from the moment you start turning, till the moment u land.ODD wrote:Basically, as 9mm explained to me... You stand at an angle of your target, preferably 45 degrees for beginners.

The thing most ppl do wrong is the mouse flicking, you need to turn your mouse fast, but not uncontrollable. Especially the last thing is what is done wrong by most players. Turn as fast as it is possible for you to make a smooth, controlled turn.

Re: STRAFE JUMPING HELP
and does flicking the mouse ONLY, without pressing A or D help? because i did a few jumps from exactly the same place, with flicking and without and it seemed that the dictance i reached was the same.

It does work, but u have to turn further as you would when pressing a strafekey.dhflaj wrote:and does flicking the mouse ONLY, without pressing A or D help? because i did a few jumps from exactly the same place, with flicking and without and it seemed that the dictance i reached was the same.
It works nearly as good as strafejump with strafekeys, but as far as I know, it isnt as quick and does not work with 250/333 fps aswell as with strafekeys.

Re: STRAFE JUMPING HELP
i need help ^^
i want to work on my jumps...
+ the keys
all say the keys but everybody have them differently at their computers..
when we strafe we use a / d (doesn't turn only move to the direction) or left / right arrows (turn the body)?
+ combination
at post their is stated you also need a mouse action / movement that i do not really understand
+ ftps
what are these?
how do i change them? (i know this is already answered but the links are broken)
changing them will affect my computer?
can it be harmed?
+ maps / servers
are there any servers for me to practice?
which map do you think is the best to start with?
+ version
my version is Call of duty 2 x 1.3. i have seen some videos at youtube and various places and some ppl comment these are not suitable for this version.. do you think switching to an older would be better?
pff i asked a lot but i really wanna strafe jump

The CoD2 servers should be patch 1.3 though. And there's a cool no-hurt mod which removes all death triggers
