#11 i55 vloggers, lend me your channels in LAN Discussion

Yeah pretty much every other social media site is better for pictures and such, but snapchat is really easy for videos. I just checked kbk's "story" I think it's called (I actually don't use snapchat almost at all) and there was a stream of little 10 second videos that were cool to watch. Tbh it actually isn't a huge improvement over youtube or twitter for sharing what's going on but uploading dozens of 10 second videos to youtube doesn't work too well. I'm happy with anything though rofl

Any chance we could get some snapchat accounts just like what kbk did for ESEA LAN?

-protoAir_the time it takes most soldiers to learn to ctap consistently would be better spent actually being able to hit rocketsI dont understand this, it takes less than 5 minutes to learn how to consistently ctap. People are definitely taking the wrong approach if they think it's time consuming or difficult.

This is not true lol. Maybe for you, you happened to catch on quickly and had good teaching or something, but even the best players in the world had to work hard at it.

#20 Helpful Ducktaps in Map Discussion
Bob_Marleyyeah, it actually is pretty easy. imo people are just horrible at explaining it because they make it seem faster than it really is. Once i realized i was doing it too fast, i got it after 2 tries and after 10 more minutes of practice i was able to get it 90% of the time, and now i may go a week without messing one up

This it he main problem I find. There is actually a very small amount of time after tapping crouch that you should be pressing no buttons on your keyboard. I was trying so hard to get it right, but it just turns out you have to take it slow. Start on jump 1 of tr_ctap_a2, use the original, and just do vertical jumps until you get the timing. I haven't seen one tutorial that explained it well. If anything, the "go into thirdperson, and crouch so that your screen moves but your model doesn't" makes it worse.

Yeah that's why I put little hints at the end rofl. It took me a long time, but once I bound jump to mouse2, got the m1 m2 timing and practiced on tr_ctap_a2, it only took a couple days.

Well of course you can always get a quick buff, but not having to get that buff is just straight up better. Your medic has 4 other people he can buff now. The two extra rockets are also pretty helpful.

Ah I see, I wasn't aware of that speed calculation thing.

I just tested it though, medic gets into garage at :35, and with hurtme -1000 and lots of jumps I was able to get there at the same time. Maybe if medic pocketed roamer for a bit you could kill enemy medic before he gets to mid lol. Would be pretty funny.

Also yes, scout is the best class in the game.

Oh yeah it's definitely useful just as any other jump because of the increased speed. I guess by saying "useful", I meant that you can get from one place to another with only one rocket, instead of having to do some sort of pogo. Since you can reload in the air, you'll land with 4 rockets loaded, other than 2, and you'll only take damage from one jump, so you'll have maybe 20 extra health when you land.

Also you get more distance out of jumps by doing very small air strafes (forget what this is called, similar to midair bunnyhopping I guess... maybe I'm crazy?). If anything, a jump that requires a perfect ducktap would actually require some very small strafes.

I see your point though. I still think it's very underrated. Any of these jumps can be used OUTSIDE of combat (which was the main downside you mentioned), and allow much faster movement, and uses less health and ammo. The two granary ones can allow a soldier to get to enemy garage probably at about the same time the enemy medic gets there...

#1 Helpful Ducktaps in Map Discussion

Hello everyone, my internet was down yesterday and I've been pretty obsessed with ducktapping recently so I decided to look around some comp maps to see if I can find any useful ducktaps, maybe to try to entice people into learning the most underrated soldier technique there is. (I consider a ducktap useful if it goes from one elevated area to another elevated area. If neither of the areas are elevated, the jump can be completed by just walking forward a bit and then doing a regular jump. This is the reason the ctap from big door onto nipple won't be included here).

The three (or four) most well known ones:

- Across granary mid, bats to bats (both of them)
- Blands patio to fence
- Blands grey over fence

The ones that I've found:

Badlands
- attacking spire, from the ramp leading from mid, over spire, land on bats
- at mid, patio next to window over mid onto enemy hoodoo (not extremely useful but might as well)

Granary
- shutter door onto the wooden ledge outside garage (included this because it may speed up roamer rollouts)
- the lower level of crates across mid onto the opposite crate (come out of choke, small jump onto the lower of the two crates, jump over mid and land on the small health pack on the other crates)

Couldn't find any on Gully :(

Process
- attacking last, from door 3 or 4 (ie lobby, but not the door on the far right) to above spawn (there are even very small ledges above spawn doors that allow this jump)
- attacking 2, from sewer onto the small ledge above IT (the ledge that allows easy spam into rollout)
- in mid, from big pack onto enemy rock, spam choke, kill everyone

Snake
- defending 2, from bats onto pipe

Viaduct
- from your china, over mid, onto enemy rock
- from your cliff onto the rock on enemy cliff (the rock that soldiers love to stand on) (involves jumping over your own rock)

I had lots of fun trying to find these. I hadn't heard of any of them before, so sorry if they've already been discovered (I didn't see any other threads with this information). Anyways my ctaps are still not perfect, and I'm actually pretty bad at normal jumps now, so if anyone finds out that one, any, or all of them can be completed with regular jumps, let me know :)

Hope you guys enjoy

(P.s. bind mouse2 to jump, and practice on tr_ctap_a2. Not my map, but it's fantastic and it's how I learned)

deetrlighthousedeetrlighthousePeople take what ash says seriously?

I mean do what you want with your money, but seriously you are screwing over five other fine gentlemen who just want to go to Europe, just because you take offense to something someone says? Lighten up dude. Now because of this the $1300 dollars has to come from people who maybe don't have that kind of money available but just really want to watch some great video games.

Who are you to question how he spends his money

"I mean do what you want with your money"

Ya but clearly from the wording of your post you are questioning him and trying to guilt trip him into giving money. Just because you put a sentence in there that is the opposite of everything else you say it doesn't mean that the point you were making is summarized in that one sentence

Guilt tripping him into giving money is different than saying that withdrawing his donation was outside his rights. Again, he can do whatever he wants, he can go burn that money if he wants, I'm just saying he's having a large negative impact on other people because he took offense to some stuff. I don't know what they said, so it's even possible his withdrawal was completely merited, doesn't mean he's not screwing people over.
