Right, this stupid jumping thing is in the game and looks like it will stay for the rest of the duration of however long this game lasts for and I am not the only person who detests it.

I genuinely think a really good idea - to make it a little 'fair-er' - would be to stop people being able to fire while doing it.

Wasn't the whole idea to add another layer onto the game so and people could use it to get rid of spawn pads, or plant their own, and provide better mobility over the terrain for perhaps heavies and make the scouts better at.. well scouting.

I really think stopping these morons who take advantage of a broken game mechanic, let's face it - the shooting mechanics in this game aren't fantastic when people are able to move as fast as they do - it does make it very disjointed when every 'fair' one on one fight comes down to who can strafe in circles or left to right whilst maintaining a better hit rate than the other person will win..

If you weren't able to fire, you could use it for manoeuvring as was (hopefully) it's intention, and I guess escaping, although it's frustrating as hell to get the drop on someone only to have them bound 30 feet into the air, turn around midway and unload on you while you have little to no way of retaliating due to the aim assist weirdness and couple that with the rotation speed of the suit you are in. And that, in my opinion, would make it less of a douche-y, cheap, scummy, cheating mechanic of try-hards.

tl;dnr: stop people being able to fire while jumping, less rage will occur.

Thoughts?

I just want to see it given its own branch in the skill tree as a suit jetpack mod, why should you get the jump AND melee damage

Your whole screen shakes while you are jumping by the way and is almost a miracle to hit someone directly during this process, vice versa, it is not impossible for others to shoot you. In fact, I have forged and plasma cannoned people jumping through the air as well as seen snipers pick some of these jumpers out of the sky..... If that can happen then I don't see how people can complain. Motion to remove jumpers, denied. Reasoning: Lack of evidence to favor your judgement.

I didn't say anything about removing the jumpers Ok. Ok. The title of your post is Petition to stop moon jumping bleeps right? I have made some pretty valid points, yet you choose to dodge a real response and say you didn't say anything about removing jumpers.,,,, It's right there in your title! Yes I know you strayed from the title and made it about not allowing one to shoot while jumping, HELLLLLLOOOOOOOOOOO did I not just say I don't fire with MY TOES ? Care to respond to that simple fact? FORGE/FLAYLOCK/FISTS PLASMA/PISTOL/PUNCH ALL OF YOU PUNKS GET HUMILIATED AFTER LUNCH!
