in stronghold i know for 2 shortcuts wich are a bit too big...1 is at the begining where you can jump on the left panell and fell straight dow (cca 10 'hard' jumps skiped) and the second when u re down there is a nade jump and you go over the actual jumps and do some easyer ones to get faster to the lasers and there are some smaller ones....to skip 1-3 jumps

edit: mp_mine what about that begining....before the actual mine? I think there is about 25 jumps and if u skip it you end with 5, and skip it a bit more you end with '1':)

Jep, all too big imo. I also take the skill it takes take a shortcut in concideration.. When u can skip like 5 jumps, but the jump to do it is much harder then the 5 normal jumps, then i usually take it.

Shortcuts no matter how big should be kept in ;/ it will encourage people to explore jump maps to find shortcuts.

yeah, like when its not just walking round a corner but like getting on a roof (which could be really hard to get onto) id do that.

Thats the point, shortcuts should not be found in the first place. I really wish i was allowed to kick for using shortcuts tbh, they piss me off bigtime.

You will always have those people. They will be the first to say that they are finished. Brag rights :roll:

But what exactly is that shortcut in mp_jump ? Or have I missed it somewhere in this topic ?

dont know exactly how will u decide, but shotcuts are just to meny....you can finish a 10 min map under 2 min.....where is the fun in that??

or....just fought at something:
1 One record page where are all the rules the same and u can use all the shortcuts that you want
2 No shortcuts alloved

duno....just a proposition

In mp_jump there is a nade jump to shortcut 2 or 3 jumps

I think it would be fine the way we did it in cod1...
About the mp_jump nadejump, go ahead, ill jump the 2-3 jumps faster then you can do the nadejump anyway.. ( i think;))

Nadejumps should be disabled on mp_jump anyway.

Anyway, I have no need to use a nadejump on that map (Even though I don't know where it is :roll: ).

No need. We will make the rules and we can tell people if they read the rules that shortcuts aren't allowed. If they do, then the record simply won't be uploaded. Simple as that.

Simple fix to all the problems in this topic idea...


Me and my friend will create a mod that will average your FPS

Have a timer going

Have save mod or no, what ever you want it to be...

Then it will up load all the player stats to a log on the server...

Lets decide about that rules then so we could get jumping our way for the records 8)

we decidet allready
-not to allow nades on the maps where they arent necesary
-not to limit fps
-not to allow shortcuts biger that (x) normal jumps (x is to decide yet :D )
-loading after a failled jump gives u 5 sec penalty

I only think that not to die in a map like stronghold is allmost impossible since i cant be 100% concentrated for that 15 minutes :?

Have a proposition for start&finish

start: time goes on from the first jump on the map
finish: last jump on the map
