Think bouncy ball, if you hit it off a wall it goes flying, now you'll be able to jump off a wall, like that ball.

[GSF]Ganon, that was suggested 2 years ago by me, and I know someone suggested it way before me.

Please get over it already guys, both of you. Walljumping exists in *many* different games as well as the cartoon and assumably manga of Dragonball Z. Who suggested what is really irrelavent at this point. Get back on topic.

And don't worry, you'll still take damage if you're thrown into a wall, whether or not you jump back off of it. Being able to bounce back off of it at the expense of some ki was made possible to maintain the fast pace of the ESF melee system and add a little style to the foray.

"Wall jumping" has nothing to do with being thrown in the first place though, at least not the "wall jumping" written into the ESF 1.2 outline. That kind of wall jumping will take place when you swoop into a wall and hold onto jump, allowing you to rebound back in the opposite direction without having to turn around.

I'm sure you can't wall-jump off of people. The entire point of flying into someone is to hit them, and punching is automatic now, so there's little chance you'll be able to jump off of their faces.

Well then why not fly circles around them? ESF isn't about making people who aren't at your level feel stupid. The team isn't going to waste its time and effort to design techniques that only appeal to the top 10% of the community.

Well, more than 60% of ESF players cant melee properly, so i wud say thats a wee bit more than 10%. And besides, I never said anything about adding anything to the new melee system and walljumping, otherwise i wud have posted in the Suggestion forum :\
Besides, i ain't gonna argue with a mod, so i'll just shutup ;D :rolleyes:

The one way they could make the walljumps happen would be close to how they are in UT2003. You jump up to the wall and Dodge off of it.

Or they could make it so if your running in to the wall and jump, then pressing Left Strafe, you jump off of the wall.


They would want this to be easy, thats pretty easy if you ask me :D

haha..
its ok guys.. joe and I did wall jumping in another test mod of ours.. we know what we're doing with this wall jump thing :D

-=: test mod := -
you could jump in 4 directions,
front/back/left/right
so depending the direction you face.. you do a different flip..

Im not sure how we're gonna do it for ESF yet so READ CAREFULLY!
