I don’t mean crouch spamming, but i’m finding it difficult (if not near impossible) to make a simple jump up onto the top part of the trains on badlands using a simple duck jump.

I have done it, but at first it took me like 20 attempts+.

Anyone else having these issues?

Heard that rocket jumping was screwed too.

Yes I am aware of that post, where did you think I found out about the update….. but the whole point in a seperate threat was to get a serious issue more ‘coverage’. And since that post is about the update in general, i’d rather start a new one solely about this topic and let other people discuss the rest in there.

I am kinda scared now since i am on cell and i cant test.
What class u used? Do u mean u cant double jump on top of train or u cant climb with other classes?

ye i tried like 30 times to jump on the train and it only worked twice or something

but it seems they will fix this fast

I don’t even understand why they would limit mid-air crouches, anyone care to elaborate?

And why limit it to 1? With 2 you could crouch-RJ and crouch again if you screwed up the jump and still make it, or do very close jumps (like onto the spire top from outside the lobby, sometimes you come a bit short), now that’s not possible…I don’t get it. :?

It isn’t just the crouch jumping, they also did something to make jumps match the models. If you look at the link wer posted you can see that it results in it being impossible to jump on a sentry.

Valve seems to be aware of the problem http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?t=816875
“It was a side effect of the changes we made to ensure the bounding box more correctly matched the player’s animation, so that hitboxes were correct. We want you to still be able to jump sentryguns, so we’ll be doing something about it.

Most stupid update ever. Why nerf soldiers even more ?
If the don’t want scouts to crouch spamming, why then do they change the soldier too ?

Well, what I mean is that scout seems the most effective to do that without limiting movement that much, e.g. whilst double jumping + spamming crouch.
