You’ll notice that if you do it right, you actually don’t lose speed in turns, but rather start to accelerate! Also note that releasing the forward key while you’ve already pressed the strafe key will slow you down too, so be sure to use the right order.
#XONOTIC AIR ACCELERATE COMMAND FULL#
The movement needs to be fluent and soft to get the full benefit. Slowly accelerate and decelerate the mouse turn and maintain a steady turn speed in between. I can’t stress this aspect enough - a lot of newcomers that I told this technique basically got all the key pressing part right but fail at moving the mouse smoothly. It’s vital to move the mouse smoothly, because any abrupt sudden movements will slow you down. Now hold the jump key and the strafe key and smoothly turn your mouse in the strafe direction (in my example, right). Once you’ve released the forward key and while still keeping the jump key pressed, hold down the strafe key in the direction you want to turn (for sharp right turn: strafe right).
#XONOTIC AIR ACCELERATE COMMAND HOW TO#
Online you’ll meet a lot of players doing sharp turns at high speeds, and here’s the secret how to do it:īefore the turn, while still bunny hopping, release the forward key (yes, really release it - it doesn’t slow you down that much). If you continue to press the forward key and simply turn the mouse, you’ll hardly manage to make a sharp turn (unless you stop jumping, which slows you down a lot). You’ll face complications if you now try to turn once you gained some speed, however. This is quite easy and there’s nothing really to master about plain forward bunny hopping. If you press the forward button while holding the jump button, you’ll continuously get faster until you hit the acceleration limit. The good thing is that you only need to keep the jump button pressed and you will jump again once you hit the ground (unless of course you disabled that in Settings → User). By constantly jumping you can keep ground contact to a minimum. One of the keys to gain high speeds in Xonotic is therefore to touch the ground as little as possible. When you just walk around, though, your feet are in constant contact with the ground, so the friction is slowing you down a lot. In Xonotic you have a lot of movement control while you are in the air, and to a great extent you’ll accelerate when pressing the forward button while flying. You can do that too, and this post will tell you how. You may have noticed that players race around the maps at insane speeds, making them hard to hit and also hard to tell from which direction they’ll come next, should you survive an attack. Hello everyone that’s new to Xonotic and maybe even new to fast-paced first person shooters in general! In this very first chapter of my newbie tips I’ll be showing you an important movement technique called “bunny hopping.“ This is a guest post from our good friend Halogene, an experienced Xonotic player and all-around good guy.
