    😂 all of yall that think jumping around is good for the game clearly are the ones abusing it. It's not fun seeing 4 enemies all just jumping around for no fucking reason. Not even in a gun fight. The devs want the game to be about shooting. Jumping isn't movement. Also. Jumping is broken in the game. The on screen height for the person jumping is not the same for the height from the one observing you jumping. Screen barely moves for the person jumping however looking from the observer the distance traveled is greater. Resulting in easier shots for person jumping and harder shots for person observing. Also the net code and hit registration issues just make it worse

    Btw, on mnk, you could (not sure of right now) triple strafe every single hop. You cant do that on controller. You can start swaying to a second direction but its nowhere as smooth and effective as mnk. So yeah, f air strafing. Absurd. That should be in games with things that allow you to actually air strafe.

    I would say the main issue with movement is that it gives an unfair advantage to players who use scuf, or any control that has back paddles. You can tell when someone is using a scuf controller.

    Yall roast me if you want but I'll say it Xdefiant in my opinion after 70+ hrs, this game doesn't require much "skill". It's all about abusing what the game doesnt balance properly. Just use cleaners and any high damage or high rate of fire weapon and spam jump. Just hide behind the phantom barrier with a sniper rifle or just desperately try to head glitch everything. Just run around with spider bot and spam jump with shotgun. Just spam jump with the phantom character and use any weapon that gets you easy kills. The only character that can't be abused is the medic character. There's no such thing as a casual hero shooter in my opinion.

This game was bringing me so much joy and fun before the sniper nerf. The flinch is way too much. I dont want to play like a bitch with the sniper. I want to play aggressive. Without that style of gameplay I’m out. Really thinking about buying bo6 now bc I want to snipe aggressively again.

    Oh nooo the Immortal players that are unaffected by bad hit registration; pray upon the bad registration with their own personal network experience; indirectly gloat about what is and isn't a skill issue when they are being babied by the system are going from God-like to superman level. Cry me a river. The game can't sustain the kind of movement it has because connection is 80-90% of what matters in a gun fight. The worse the network stability the more small problems are emphasized exponentially. The big problems are game breaking. Fix.The.Servers/game. So I can put down bad players that movement spam and call it skill when I could be using aimbot and would only register 1/4 of my shots. Peace.

    I think air strafing is an issue because jumping screws with your hit reg and the ability to change direction in air makes it even harder to adjust for shots. So you go from hitting body shots to leg shots and hit leg shots less often because you’re aiming where you believe they would be landing

Complain about every single little detail of every single game in existence, not only extified. Okay, complain about. I lost count. We complain about so many games and realistically complaining about. You know the Wi-Fi game which I also play Myself the last descendant. Complain about that. Can we all just f****** enjoy video games and shut the f*** up? Give developers feedback, positive feedback and not give them. They're not gonna fix it if we keep giving them hate, it's not coming. Go that way. We just need to be constructive criticism for them to improve on the game and back in the day. We a will you suggest a joy games? A joy sports games avoid shooters. Avoid everything and not complaining what?

    bro air strafing is stupid af, people changing directions 3 times in the air makes no sense, and it's mostly a keyboard move. they needed to fucking nerf the bunny hopping cause it's getting worse and worse, just like they need to penalise every idiot that crouches while getting shot putting his head straight into the lane of fire (headshots dont trigger there).
    moving like a maniac is not 'skill', it's just abusing of the fact that as a shooter there is no penalty to aim with that movement, actually feels better as you move and aim as a whole. you either take more damage while in air/crouching, or your aim should be worse cause that's how it fucking works, you're exposing yourself not 'being skilled'

    I think that the air strafe nerf can be a good thing to make gunfights more clear.
    I just don’t like the aim sway. They should just add more fatigue so that after the third jump you are, more or less, standing still. If I just accidentally press the jump button more than it is allow I get heavily punished so that I can do anything for a few second. I think that’s not a good design decision but that’s just my opinion. They can just make the excessive spam (more than 3) not effective
