Leaping

[Scruffie]

Okay, so we have this jump thing that allows us to control how high we jump, terrific, but we can't really choose the direction. At the moment, it's more like this when we want to jump in any direction:
...../
..../
.../
../
./
/

Which I suppose is fine, for some people. But it would be a quick way to travel if we could bounce off of the ground, off of walls, and generally off of anything we land on, like this:
......................../
..................../
.............../
........../
...../
/

Simple idea really. I played BFP the other night, and you could literally bounce about the map, and this way you'd be across it in seconds. Great stuff.

It would need a nice animation, like the swoop animation.

Just something that popped into my head.

I suggested this a long time ago, they said that the jump is perfect the way it is.

 

[Scruffie]

Well, it isn't, that's all I have to say.

There will be beam jumps in 1.1, so if we want to go fast in a certain direciton just charge a beam at the ground in the opposite direction.

I can just see Beam jumps getting messy

They should make it so you can hold down the jump button for height.

IE: Tap jump button = Normal jump (no ki use)

Hold jump button for long time = Big jump (some ki use)

Good idea Ghost. Too many times I have died from not being able to jump cuz of no-ki. Really ghey

1 problem. you are standing on the ground. enemy is swooping to you. how in the world you want to dodge it if you MUST hold the jump key first. but you already got hit when you need to charge. and if you have normal jump. you get hit also cuz you dont jump high enough.

*about the beam jump it takes ALLOT of ki.. and i agree whit that to.. otherwise very lame whit the beam jumps

 

[SaiyanPrideXIX]

Uhh...if you hold down jump, you go much higher and can control the direction you jump. I do it all the time, my Vegeta high backflip dodge/melee in the head combo. I'm not certain but I think when you transform, you can jump higher and higher, too.

Beam jumping is going to be cheese. If a Kame wave is coming at me I'm simply not gonna have time to use it. And better yet, I'll leave a bright blue/gold trail for the guy to aim the k-wave towards my new position.

Personally, I think it would be a lot cooler if you could just hit jump while against a wall, and kick off of it.

 

[Just-a-guy]

good idea, I like it and I'd just love to jump agianst walls

 

[Not A Llama]

that was the exact reason i got the desert crisis mod, wall jumping like a monkey or sumthin, that fits the story too because goku and all them are monkeys with bad beam breath (im not so good with dbz story if there sumthin screwy there)
