Self boost.

= 1.9 sprint...

You can jump while sprinting.

Hold sprint - jump. Release sprint. Jump x 3.

You go half of the cube distance... in no time.

Repeat = crossed entire map... in a few seconds.

Sprint jump = no thank you.

Reinstall version 1.6 on your test computer.
Model sprint on that.

sprint is on on what server again?

Stulovesyou · Post by **Stulovesyou** » 02-11-2003 15:56

It has throughout the history of time, always been on Australian servers.

Turn it on in single player to see how much it has been ... 'bollucked'.

Jumping decreases sprint amount = good.
Jumping while sprinting = bad
Jumping after sprinting carrys momentum into jump = super jump = very bad... not fixed from 1.8... made worse.

1.6 sprint = good.
Short boosts only.
Jumping decreases sprint stamina.
Recharge is slow.

If any server anywhere uses sprint in its current form, that server can only be classed as for novelty purposes only.

Either fix it or remove it from the mod please. If it is removed from the mod, then I can tell the players that and they will have to accept it being off. As it stands about 15-25% of Aussie players would possibly give up if sprint is turned off.

Could you please release a patch to 1.9 with proper 1.6 sprint settings, or officially announce that you are discontinuing support for sprint.

Otherwise I am going to have to fight to keep the aussie league running.

We've already had about 3-5 people saying that they're quitting DB.

Demolution · Post by **Demolution** » 02-11-2003 18:57

More like 7, because of 1 clan already quit which had 4 people and i can't remember who they were and another 3 had left.

And this is just in the Australian area, so please fix up the boost DavidM, like YoYo said... 1.9 just isn't right like it was during DB 1.6.

Correction, you had all the time in the world. Unless of course you have a brain tumor and only have 6 months to live.

Big problem with Deathball? Rushed releases.

I think this rushed release was fair enough, they had to get it out in time for the comp phase 2.

But now they have the time, a small replacement deathball.u with proper sprint settings would take very little time I imagine.

Sprint will be fixed... don't like to see big parts of this community die.

that's great, but when? Are we talking days, weeks or until db2.0?

because this update which screws up sprint has happened right in the centre of our league.
