Hi guys , ye i know its another stupid thread about longjumping help , but i will try ...

I play kreedz about two years.. but i still jumping with 5 strf. , most of time , sometimes 6 ( i know its sad.... )
and i was wondering how can i increase my strafe count i realy wanna make 7 strafe easy as 5 ..

i saw alot of demos with 8 strafe longjump , but it looks imposible for me.. i need more time in air to do that.. i cant hit my damn buttons so fast.. and if i could it would be uber ugly and unsynced....

feel free to comment , maybie you had same problem and now its fine..

waiting for any help. thx

Mb its stupid, but i also hardly did 7 strafes when i jumped with left pre.Then i decided to change my pre, and later i could easily do enough synced 8 strafes.Its my opinion.Try to change pre.

same problem, i do right pre 5strf 90-+sync sometimes 6. left pre i can 7 with ~80sync but distance and pre is owfull.

i play kz for about a 1.5 year and i do 6-7-8 strafes...my lj rec is 253.452...when i started to play kz,everybody jumped with 2-3 strafes and i with 5 (in those times it was exccelent xD)...and i was increasing my strafe count,no matter what my sync was...(in those times i didnt know what sync is)
then i realize that my strafes are better as time passes...so i started joking jumping with 9 strafes,and suddenly 251.209...i was like wtf...i was happy and wanted to do 10+ strafes...but i fucked them up and now im back to 6-7-8 strafes...

its not too late to increase strafe count,but my advice for you is to jump still with 5-6 strafes,cuz you can jump 254+ (some of my frends did)...

BUT...if you really want to increase strafe count,your first 3 strafes mustn't last over 20%...

btw:dont care so much about lj,climb the maps,and your strafes will come :D
greetz!

i could do 7 well and 8 decently (random 250s, usually less) on my good keyboard. then when i went to a stiff keyboard, i could only do 6.. you only need 6 for very good distance though

same problam.. im jumping to the right with 5 strafes and they are realy good synced, but its just 5 strafes... i could jump 250 ~ 251 no more.. and when i jump to the left i can hit 7 strafes and if i sync them good ( its called magic , cuz this happens 1/300 jump XD) i hit 252 and i imagine if i could sync them all the time my jumps will be prety nice.. but now i just randomly hit the buttons and i look what ganna happens... because i need more time in air to sync them.. with 5 strafes no problam .. 7 strafe freaking nightmare...

maybe lj-ing isnt ur thing xD btw u can make254 block with five strafes isnt that enough :D

@dpi what sens are u using try go increase it with 0.5-1 and mb ull get 1-2 strafes + what ever try to do small fast sharp strafes and ull get 7 |-( i think u can get and 9 :P it will be harder to get 6 or 8 cuz u jump with 5 and ur fingarz finish the jump to the other side whatever just increase a bitt ur sens.. and make smal fast sharp strafes

also u can show us some demo to get what u need..

try using mwheeldown for jump instead of spacebar, this gave me that extra little time to do 1 one more strafe.

dpi09/03/2010 12:23(edited 09/03/2010 12:24)

Dragon ? duch... I start to use mwheel instead of spacebar 4 years ago...

dArKRO09/03/2010 12:30

In my case...i do 7 strf on right side..but when i tried to do on left..i did instead 8 strafes....i dk man this depends on how fast are u'r fingers:D

why would sensivity increas my strafe count ? it have nothing to do with strafe count... i dont care about my strafes gain if its 0 or if its 7 the point is that i hardly can hit 7 strafes. Im right pre jumper (i was... ) and its impossible for me to hit 7 strafe to the right , and yesturday i started to jump left pre i can hit 7 strafes but they look so ugly ;|

I'm like you,I'm switching from 5 to 6-7 atm. I wasn't as good as you I guess,with 5 I only got like 251 stats and 249 block and 75+ sync. Now I'm using 7 and around 70 sync,252,4 rec and alot of fails on 250 so I improved I guess :D Anyways,here is a trick I got from someone which helps me alot:

Go to 250 block and do it noduck.

I know you can't do it noduck,but just dont duck. You'll concentrate on strafes and you'll get the rhythm some day and then you can just insert duck at the end which shouldnt be a problem.

kaa09/03/2010 16:34

what u guys think of using mouse2 button for ducking?
kind of used to it, but i think that it spoils my last strafe cause i cant time it well :E

it the strafe buttons quicker, nothing else... cant? buy some uberTOPw/skillsinclueded keyboarg like G15 and pwn 11strafes ezz

dpi10/03/2010 17:01

g15 keybord is horible thous buttons are so big.. gash.... best keybord for me is the laptop type ..

wils11/03/2010 14:31

just hit the buttons man. if you can do 8strafe with 10 sync, just keep going, suddenly youll do 8strafe 90 sync. BAM.

cheers

dpi12/03/2010 06:00

wils thats the point... i cant hit the buttons so fast.. and i dont understand how other players can hit 8 or 10 strafes no matter what sync ..

wils12/03/2010 13:22

my point was. start geek.
I couldn't hit 8strafe 1.5year ago...
cant barely do it now ;>
