| |
| − | | |
| − | Alright, as per the discussion on [[Talk:Rocket jump]], all jump-related content should be moved in to this article. Because of the mass of content we have regarding jumps just merging everything in would result in a very messy article. I would like this page to be ''(re)written'' with information about jumps. Use the other articles for reference. -[[User:RJackson|<span style="background-color:#FF0000;color:white;font-size:0.7em;padding: 0 2px;">RJ</span>]]{{mod}} 18:24, 15 October 2010 (UTC)

| − | == Merger ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | I thought the idea was to hold sections for all the jumps, but Rocket jump & Sticky jump would have separate articles and remain summarised on here. Now there's just one huge page? Rocket jumping & sticky jumping are much larger topics, individual pages should be dedicated to them, in my opinion. [[User:Seb26|<font color="#0B61A4">'''seb26'''</font>]] [[User talk:Seb26|<span style="font-size:95%;">[talk]</span>]] 04:41, 20 October 2010 (UTC)
| |
| − | :Honestly, I don't see a problem with both types of jumps being in the Jumping article. Sure, it'll be a long article, but I think creating individual articles for sticky and rocket jumps would result in two small, unmaintained pages. ~ <code>[[User:Lhavelund|<font color=red><span style="font-size: 1.2em;">'''lhavelund'''</span></font>]]</code> <sup>([[User_talk:lhavelund|talk]] ▪ [[Special:Contributions/lhavelund|contrib]])</sup> 04:47, 20 October 2010 (UTC)

| − | ::Personally, I think there should be separate articles for the Rocket Jump and the Sticky Jump. They are techniques essential to playing the Soldier and Demoman class and deserve their own pages. [[User:8-Bit Lincoln|8-Bit Lincoln]] 18:17, 14 May 2011 (UTC)

| − | == Section ordering == | |
| − | | |
| − | The ordering of the types of jumps appear to be listed in a somewhat random order at the moment (unless 'frequency of usage' is the intended order?). Wouldn't it make more sense to list the types in the same manner that most lists use, in Class order?
| |
| − | | |
| − | On a side-note, "Pyro jump" feels out of place as a header, considering every other jump type involving a weapon is named after the weapon used to make said jump. I do believe "Reflect jump" or "Compression jump" are possible substitutions, unless a more fitting label can be found. [[User:Disaster|Disaster]] 05:13, 12 November 2010 (UTC)

| |
| − | | |
| − | And I also don't like the name 'flare jump', as that would indicate the use of a flare gun, which it doesn't; I'd opt for det-jump, but that's just my opinion.

| − | == Charge Long Jump ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | I'm not 100% if it is applicable here but I don't think ramp sliding completely covers what you can do with charging. You can jump and charge or just straight charge to get great distance (way more than regular jump). I just simply feel that this should be included here. This technique is very helpful when you have to get to a place below you I can try to make a demo video.

| − | :{{c|No}} Unfortunately, "GRU jumping" as described on this page is ''not'' switching weapons in midair as to lose less HP, but rather to time the HP loss, which causes knockback, to propel you enough to get across certain jumps.

| − | == Rocket jump extended description ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | I see expert rocket jumping all the time, and I play locally and think I understand it, but then when I play online I can't rocket jump without (1) doing massive self damage or (2) going very far at all. The description of crouch jumping is also similarly vague that I can't tell when to crouch, before, during, or after the jump.

| − | ::{{c|no}} Unfortunately, this wiki doesn't contain possibly biased strategies or tutorials, it only contains factual things such as "crouch jumping increases rocket jump height". Additionally, this is the wrong place to ask. Go to a forums to ask for help on the game. For your information anyways, rocket jumping usually involves '''Jump'''→'''Crouch'''→'''Fire Rocket Behind You''' (preferably at a nearby wall for distance, at the ground for height)→'''Maneuver through air'''. —[[File:User Rocket Ship BBQ Awesomepyro.png|24px]][[User:Rocket Ship BBQ|Rocket Ship BBQ]]([[File:Speech voice.png|20px|link=User talk:Rocket Ship BBQ]]•[[File:Intel neutral pickedup.png|20px|link=Special:Contributions/Rocket Ship BBQ]]) 23:41, 14 November 2011 (PST)

| − | :::During gameplay, there are mentions of rocket jumping, specifically the load screen and the "Rocket Jumper." If the only official manual for this game is this web site, it seems to me that this site should provide basic rocket jumping instructions. All of the strategy pages go well beyond basic ideas of what can happen in the game and mention what one should do to play better in the game. Not to mention that knowledge of the correct order of hitting buttons is a basic fact. I think I have nullified your argument. :) [[User:Liquidefeline|Liquidefeline]] 23:53, 14 November 2011 (PST)

| − | :::::I said, "Can someone please provide an extended rocket jump tutorial for dummies." I'm really not sure where you got that other info from, but that's not what I was asking for. I understand you have no interest in providing basic instructions for something that is part of TF2's root and will probably take down any posts that are similarly made. I say that it's part of TF2's root because there are about 2000 pages on this site that mention "rocket jump". Even if the fact that the page is in multiple languages is taken into account, that's a large number of pages, approx 10% of all the wiki's pages. My interest wasn't specifically for asking for help in the game, but asking for added information to be entered to explain what strongly appears to be a big part of the game play. This would not be of use to just me, but to all that wish to play Soldier on TF2 in the way that that class was designed to be played. The class is specifically designed to rocket jump as part of the achievements, weapons being designed specifically for rocket jumping, descriptions of the soldier rocket jumping mentioned on load screens, and the list goes on and on. I repeat, I made no mention in my initial post as to wanting a video of someone rocket jumping; I'm sorry you understood that (really I am). I also strongly feel that since this is the only official manual for the game, and that the soldier is designed as a rocket jumping class, that there should be some solid mention as to how one uses rocket jumping in a manner that is actually useful in gameplay. The videos in this section do not have any accompanying description, thus not showing how such rocket jumps are performed, nor does the text describe them. From what I'm understanding, the desire on this page is to say, "Rocket jumping happens. You do it, or you do not. The End." That's what I'm understanding from your posts. I hope I'm wrong.

| − | The wiki looks for factual info, not opinions of things like what the correct way to rocketjump is, which a how-to video tries to demonstrate. There's no "right" way to rocketjump because there are many ways you can do it to accomplish different goals and situations. Crouching isn't necessary, but it will provide more knockback in either a good or bad way. For example if you only want to jump up a small ledge, don't crouch when you rocketjump or you'll probably go too high and take unnecessary fall damage and give the enemy time to evaluate your trajectory. If you're covering more vertical distance, fire directly below and behind you. If you want to cover more horizontal distance, fire at the wall behind you if there is one, otherwise aim at the ground a bit further away. As for "when to crouch, before, during, or after the jump", you need to be crouching as you're being hit by the rocket's explosion, which is where the knockback is applied. If you're looking for info on how to move in midair while rocketjumping, you're looking for airstrafing which is a different game mechanic. Its unclear what it is you don't understand, and I'm pretty much just giving you the answers to some FAQs of rocketjumping. All of this info is already in the article.
