Key presses are shown on the center panel under my crosshair! You'll see different sides light up as I press different keys. If you wanna see more strafe jump techniques, head over here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ndaZpZmLv7HRk4E.html

I can't even do it the way those incredibly strict tutorials do it anymore either, lol. I think one of the best parts about strafe jumping is how it completely open up maps and let's you get from point A to point B in so many interesting ways. It shouldn't be explained so restrictively. Thanks for this video! :)

The most precice advice for strafe jumping on youtube!

That a really solid tutorial how to do strafejump, now i manage to gain even more speed and i finished the Quake Live tutorial after 9 years !

Best explaining. Thank you.

Thank you very much fellow defragger! I never knew I had so many options and that it's not even that hard to implement. Gonna start practicing non diagonal techniques now, it really feels like my movement will benefit from more use of that fancy halfbeat :D

good point if you're running around an empty map. but when you're making short runs, chasing someone or running away, you need to strafe to be as efficient as possible. At this point it's not even something I think about, but if you don't strafe you don't have GOOD control and won't be able to hit that sick rail chasing someone before they round the corner

Damn, its really that simple? I couldnt figure this out for years :D Thank you

2:31 Haha! I really felt quotation marks on "strafing" when you said it there even though you did not say quote-unquote. :D

I haven't seen this map before, seems really good to practice rocket jumps.

Good video. Straight to the point, cohesive....organic? I liked it.

Had no idea I could do this thanks!

I've liked to consider strafe jumping as just one technique used to express the acceleration which I don't really know what to call. (Crooked Wish Acceleration???) However I don't really even like to call the standard vQ3 technique strafe jumping, rather that's more so "forward strafe jumping" and instead the typical QW technique Quakers like to call bunny hopping would make more sense to call "strafe jumping". Although like you said the terms are what the community has stumbled into over the years and nobody's really going to be able to change that, heh

Yes that game teached me how to actualy strafe jump... After 400 hours playing QC 🙃 nice video

Hieno video bro! Kiitoksia! Subasin. :)

This is really good advice! When I started to learn strafe jumping(In quake 3 without the HUD stuff) I switched side every time I jumped, very hard for a n00b to get the angles right this way... Then I started to jump more jumps on one side and instantly started to feel the frickin' acceleration! It felt so damn good!!! I also think I learned the technique better by really knowing why this stuff happens, I remember watching this video: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qLqji7Jnv8_HnKc.html This technical video might help someone else reading this comment, maybe not(I don't know!) but it is interesting though! Again your video was great and, I don't think I've seen any other strafe jumping tutorial video that makes this much sense! And I've watched many(I don't really know why I still watch them when I already know how to strafe jump...)!

Thank you for this!

so for inverted strafing you only use A and D and the angles that correspond to those?

haha, I hope this reaches the masses cause I'm tired of seeing "walkers".

Nice explanation man. Do you know if it's possible to load maps to practice while the master servers are down?

Well now I know why I'm shit at race maps.

Thank goodness 2GD got rid of the fucking gmeter. Shit was way too exploitable by noobs. If they want to add it back it should only be allowed in training modes, not in online at all. It can inflate skill too much.

wow... this game is gonna be the QC killer. good show it's closed beta or else the servers would be flooded with all the dudes waiting on the edge of their seats to play the hot new arena shooter. does it got a million dollar tournament yet
