I didn't ever realize it was specific to chrome, I've been using atf2 and just dealing with it. What a nice surprise it's fixed now!

Were you lying naked on a bear rug in front of the fire?

By clumsy I mean that I'll rush my jumps and mis-time some of them if i'm trying a double jump or something, which usually results in me falling short and then out of panic I'll try to jump again and just mash keys and go straight up in the air about 8 feet.

I think my main problem is that I panic. In jump maps and pubs I'm never in a rush so I can just take my time with the jump, and they always turn out better.

As for just going around and jumping in the ESEA maps, I always just use rocket jumper in pre games of scrims and pugs and just jump around. But aside from a handful of jumps per map, I don't want to just practice specific jumps, I feel like I'd be hindered if I try to script all my jumps. I'd rather just improve my overall jumping abilities, and jump maps are much more fun for that than jumping in a random server.

I can beat more challenging maps than those ones (cheval, bomb, etc.), but yeah I get your point.

Off to the bball court and some more jump maps until i'm just more consistent.

So I've been trying to improve on my rocket jumping a lot to make my roaming better, so I've been doing a lot of jump maps.

While I've beaten quite a few jump maps at this point, I still feel like my rj's are clumsy and just not all around that much better than before.

Does anyone have any advice about translating the jumping skill required from jump maps to real gameplay? Is it just as simple as practicing more and getting more consistent?

I use numbers and 'q' for last weapon. No fancy scripts here.

He didn't write that for all of us to read and judge him on, it was for his team. If he comes off as cocky, arrogant, or whatever he's being accused of, he shouldn't be judged as such because it was a personal letter with a very specific audience in mind (i.e. his team, and not all of tf.tv).

I did. One day at Winterpark before break (gorgeous weather, but they could still use some snow), and one day at home at Alyeska (decent amount of snow, they just need to open up the whole mountain).

Done.

Very interesting read. Seems like a personal letter of sorts to Lazer Beams, so I almost feel bad reading it.

Sometimes when looking at the server list, it will say I will have 1000 ping. Then I join the server and it's like 60 or something. Server list lies.

I never use the forums section, I just click on the topics sidebar so I never notice what section anything is in.

On topic, I think it's still a work in progress, the guy developing the site is still working out the bugs and kinks.

STAR's not the best player in this game, I'm sure you can find a better mentor
