I got an Idea for bunny hopping.

[Warkaiser]

If they are bad without bunny hopping... And you say they are bad by bunny hopping. So what is the problem, you should be able to kill them with no problem.

Thats what I think is entertaining about the whole thing. Several threads lately popping up with QQ about bunny hopping, usually someone claiming how bunny hoppers are bad, have no skill, etc... But then I wonder "If theyre so bad, why are you on the forums crying about it?"

[Xstriker]

lol Yeah bunny hopping morons with rapid fire launchers. Ohhhh such skill. pffft... I just got the game. And I get matched up with those wimps a lot. I just have beginner weapons straight out of the tutorial. Since story mode is currently broken with the empty world issue I can only play PVP.

Great match making BTW! Anyone that defends that gutless kiddie tactic obvioulsy depends on it to get any type of kill. Grow a pair. Of course if you had a pair. It would slow you down for your stupid childish jumping with launchers. xD And yes, you can always tell who the annoying childish idiots are. The ones constantly jumping everywhere even out of combat.

I don't think all are bad players, just F$%king annoying players to tell you the truth, I hate players that just find ways to exploit game mechanics because they think it gives them a small edge, Bunny Hopping in a shooter makes the game feel cheap, like 1990 low tech cheap, I know it's human nature to want to get the edge but come one people were is you honor?
For once I want to play a online game where all things are on a level playing field, skill vs skill not exploit vs exploit, I mean I could bunny hop too, but I don't because I know dam well this is not an intended game mechanic, I like to master the game the way it's meant to be played, Roll for avoidance ,line of sight, ect. not hopping like a 12 year old with ADHD at Chuck E Cheese's.
Anyway after thinking about it I think a bloom increase or a damage reduction might do the trick, I don't know for sure though as I'm no game dev. I'll leave that to Trion but something needs to done, I don't want this to turn into "those tasteless games" as a matter of fact Planetside 2 has a nice anti hopping system, give it a look Trion.

I hate when people jump in pvp, HATE, HATE more then you know, let our roll be our main source for avoidance, jumping in a shooter (bunny hopping) is a clear sign of bad game mechanics, every time I see someone bunny hop I picture a 12 year old thinking he has mad skillz, as a matter of fact those that bunny hop should get there accounts taken away because this game is Rated M and they shouldn't be playing lol, I joke but really make bunny Hopping useless in this game.

My fix: Make it if a character is in combat he or she jumps at half the height and turns mid air at a much slower rate, also make it so they can't use weapons, just like you can't shoot while using Roll as of now, however make Roll more attractive by letting players be able to shoot while rolling but only allow hip shots with a larger bloom to balance damage to avoidance ratio and to keep the kids from spam rolling and shooting as there replacement for the bunny hopping nerf, this fix will put a end to bunny hopping and let players use roll more strategically.

LOL at person not very good at multiplayer

Let me get this comedy gold right, your saying JUMPING is bad game mechanics but you want to be able to roll and shoot at the same time.

Why not ask TRION to nerf peoples trigger fingers, or maybe glue all players to the spot in any session your in.

Quakelive is skill vs skill. Go try it out, it's free.

Weapon RNG and perk slots increasing as you level will not make this game a level playing field till everyone has their perfect weapons and is max ego.

I get the feeling you want wild west style duels instead of fps pvp.

LOL At the typical little kids reponse to a valid complaint from an adult.
+1 for not using the words "you suck noob" in your in sad attempt at an insult the guy above you.
At least you tried. But still failed.... xD

To the Devs: How about a baby bunny hop mode for the kiddies in PVP? And a non baby bunny hop/non rapid fire launchers mode (with launchers that also take time to reload after 1 shot). That would bring some balance to at least the adult mode. Then the kiddies have their lame 1998 Quake jump mode. And the adults could also get their more tactical mode. Everyone is happy then.

I personally hate bunny hopping..just so dumb, decent players can easily overcome it..as someone already said, strafing > hopping.

The thing that bugs me is not that people do it per se, but it ruins the immersion factor. Im not talking about realism, but immersing yourself into an alternate world.
Example= BF3..usmc vs the russians, fighting in urban and big outdoors enviros..great fun,then someone bunny hops to avoid being shot.
Not one hop,but a long series of frankly pathetic attempts to get away.
All immersion is instantly lost, because jumping like that in full battle rattle is virtually impossible-ive tried!

Same goes for Defiance, its supposed to be immersive..certain things just ruin that immersion for people, bunny hopping is one of them.

Its a black & white issue, you either agree or not.

So jumping breaks the immersion its not the constant respawning or the no fall damage or the infinite sprint or other stuff. This is the weakest argument I heard for being against jumping. In real life some people jump when they hear gunshots.

[Devacore]

have them get knocked down if shot in mid air. bunny hopping is pretty silly looking i agree.

[Darklove4343]

the pvp should be like metal gear online.
