New LJ Map Idea
I've posted this in another topic here but i think it fits better in here, so here comes my idea :
What about making an lj map with big height difference and longer distance? Like the big jumps at rooftops where you do liek 20strafes!
Wouldn't it be awsume to make a lj map full of jumps like that, where you can train your "cliff jump" skills.
The plan i had was to find a good height that every single jump at the map have, lets say every jump is like 3000units high(+/-), and as the jumps get bigger and harder the only thing we do is to change the distance to the landing. So lets say the easiest jump might be 3000units high and 1300 units long, and the hardest jump might be 3000units high but 1700 units long .. I think a map like that would be really fun to play on and test your skills on longer falls.
But the hard thing might be for the mapper to find a good standard height and what distance the easiest should have. But when you got that clear it's just to make jump iwth the same height but maybe +5 untis long.
I hope somebody gets the point about my idea .. :D
I think it's important that we make an offical map for this just like kz_longjumps/2 with an set standard height..
This shouldn't be to hard to do so if any mapper thinks the idea is good please tell me, i glady improve the idea and hear your opinion :)
for what? new kind of record on ljrecords?
nop...
no gamster, just to practice ... it's a nice idea ... i would like a map like that just to practice ( no new lj record or something like that ) ..
Besides, i don't know if it should be an official map, it should be just another map like weird_longjumps or something like that .
Yeah would be cool.
I think its stupid, u can train it in any map, lan or public. but its my opinion
Well ofc you can train on different kz maps or @ rooftops but it would be better if we had a map gathered with such jump that you can practice on.. So that if you make the "1300 lj" you can go to the next lj whitch is like 1310 and see how far you can come ..
The training will get mutch more effective if you dont need to swap map everytime to get a harder jump, here it's just to move on to the next and text your skills :)
It maybe not need to be offical but i believe that would be better, so we all compare our jumps with each other and we all know how hard the jump she/he did etc .. :D
This thing might be fun at the end of a kz or bhop map, such as the bouncy jumps at the end of kzie_bunnyheaven. But I would never play a map which only has these kind of jumps.
sounds like a good idea, because such jumps also are in a lot of shortcuts :)

It's like playing kz_longjumps. You play it for training and to competit with your self about making the longest jump. It is exactly the same as longjumping, excpet on a map like this you train your "air strafes" alot more. Ofc you can train it on any other map but on this you can test your skills and go to harder and harder jumps ... :)
Thx to all that supports the idea :D

Ok nice :)
See if you can find it :D
