somewhat off-topic but did you ever play quake 2 Frames? Probably the only game I've spent more of my time on than melee.

i've only watched part of the vid, but it really just reminds me of TFC back when it had uncapped bhop (read: before steam came into existence).

I mean it looks kool and all, dont get me wrong.

*watches more*
Love this editing though.

or maybe if i havent played tfc.

That's all this seriously look like, just with the q3 engine. Im obviously not talking about scrub *** pubbing tfc.

well the thing is defrag is a mod to the game and the concept is basically like freerunning where you travel through stages in the fastest time and the shortest route its like mirrors edge on crack

its actually really complex because there are several different jumping styles for different situations like

single beat strafe jumping (w/ airchange)
double beat strafe jumping
half beat strafe jumping
inverted strafe jumping
circle jumping

then different physics aspects like

vertical overbounce
horizontal overbounce
sticky overbounce
diagonal overbounce
zero-ups diagonal overbounce
slippery diagonal overbounce

etc etc

Wow that surprises me, q2 is to q3 how melee is to brawl imo, its sooo much faster than q2 and rockets are slower which makes being good with rl a real challenge/skill (uber mindgamez). Strafe jumping in q2 is kinda similar to wavedashing imo except it is easier to use effectively and virtually necessary to win at a high level. KK I won't steal your thread I'm just a q2 fanatic at heart. : >
