One of our veteran players, Unnownd, has put together a pretty neat video showing some of the tricks he uses to gain and maintain speed. He covers jump-turbo, bunnyhopping, airstrafing, and a technique he calls 'killing space'. This is a great video for anyone who is looking for tips in those areas, and it shows off how incredibly mobile a really good Smashball player can be.
Also be sure to check out Smashball University for training videos and live on-line classes!
Really should try this mod sometime :)
Omg if you have played enough Quake 3 Arena in the past this is a piece of cake.. I do allot of Quake 3 and RTCW-Enemy Territory Trickjumping which is practically the same as this and even harder.
Sande: a lot of these tricks have been around for a while. We wanted Smashball to have that same kind of skill curve. This video is for less experienced players who haven't done it before.
Nice video! Makes me want to play again. :D
give us another shot! I don't know when you last played, but we've been adding tons of stuff since our initial release in January.
