Glide Jumping

Ok, it's been stated by one of the devs that the acceleration from bhopping won't be as fast.

So, this brings me to ask, will glide jumping still be possible to the extent that it was in TFC? And for those who don't know what that is, it's doing an airstrafe right as you jump for an extra boost in distance. Very useful on strafe maps.

They should keep the acceleration the same. That is all I have to say.

They said, at the moment, it wasn't quite as fast. They haven't set anything in stone, of course. Since Dospac is such a fan of Glide Jumping, I would expect it to stick around.

Maybe the first jump is like whoosh and the subsequent jumps don't add as much speed.

Like, you go 100->120->125->130->135...

those percentages would be worthless...

20% is not "woosh", 60-65% is "woosh"

Well, do that, then. I don't know. I've never used one of those speedometer dealies. Whatever constitutes a whoosh.

Sorry, but your definition of "is" is clearly incorrect.
