Jumping beans

Postby Gunther » Wed Aug 31, 2005 2:00 pm

What is with this technique by many players to jump in order to throw of one's aiming point? This has never worked against me. Anytime anyone has ever jumped while in my sights, has ended up dead. I fire in 3-5 round bursts, aim, fire 3-5 round bursts, aim and repeat. I merely keep my sights on the idiotic jumping bean until he his dead. I notice they can't keep their sights on me because they are jumping up and down. I rarely take damage against someone doing this. Seems to me like a waste of effort.

Yea, this is a CS technique, it's amusing too. I aim for the center of mass usually and fire in bursts. jumping is only going to be useful if you're aiming at their feet, or against spray and pray.

That I believe is called "Bunny Hopping". It cah be effective depending on the weapons and location. I find it the best way is to shoot when they hit the ground and not waste shots on the enemy in the air. This is ofcourse because I have the DAO-12 and it has low accuracy and if I wait I can have a better chance of hitting him. Especially because the DaO-12's clip can go quickly and the reload time is really too long. If this happens in a battle I will normally just switch to a pistol and just destroy him.

Also I just won the Eryx/SRAW competition(Unofficial in server)!
-36 total enemies(16 moving and 20 still)
-Distances vary.
-Soldiers, Snipers(on cranes and buildings), HMMVs, MIA2s, Jeeps AND Choppers
-NOTE the enemies did fire back and you had to kill them and if you died it counts as failed enemy.
-54 total competitors
-35/36 enemies in 68 shots(failed on moving HMMV)
-2ND place 33/36
t3RD place 32/36
5TH place 30/36
