Jumping while sprinting?
Doing the blazin right now but I can't get more then bronze because I need to stop sprinting and holding space to charge up a super jump.
Are you not suppose to be able to charge the jump while sprinting?

just hold jump key down while sprinting, theres no need to stop moving

You can charge a jump while sprinting, but it's more of a long jump than a high jump. Having the 'run up walls' ability makes things a lot easier.

I can't charge a jump while sprinting I can button mash the "Space" key while sprinting and it do nothing.

Are you by any chance using a Logitech Keyboard?
Komarimaru Aug 24, 2013 @ 6:23am 
Many Logitech keyboards suffer from a poor matrix design, specifically the combination of W+Shift+Spacebar. They proclaim this as a feature to make typing a smoother experience, but it's bull pucky. What you're suffering from is ghosting, unable to press certain key combinations at once.

Screw Gamepads. Game Pads are Keyboard without BASIC knowledge on how to keybind.

Keypads are Less Ergonomic than the basic Keyboard. and more Pointlessly Complex.

I can't help but wonder, did you just quote me without reading properly?

You do know that a gamepad, and a keypad are two completely different things, yeah?

Gamepads are "made" for Gaming on a PC interface; Except...Most (cough...All...Cough!!!) suffer from oddities which make them useless for certain game (Aka; any games which invole fast swtiching of "play" like Saints Row IV. ) GamePads are not made to be as cross compatable as your normal keyboard. They are generally made for specific Game series Like Call of Duty....

There is Good Reason why the Sales Packaging on "Gamepads" tend to be towards a specific Game. As that is the ONLY games it was "made for". If you want to be a Real PC Gamer. use a Normal Keybpard and Learn to Keybind for what works for YOU!, Or give up and Use a Console System.

Ever had any actual problem with your hands? Keyboard + mouse is an ergonomical nightmare. Anything is if you use it long enough I think, but nothing aggravates my RSI as much as keyboard + mouse, and that's with me trying pretty much everything. Sitting in different positions, using special keyboards and so on (oh and ergonimical keyboards don't help ONE BIT).

I love mouse + keyboard for the control it offers, but ergonomically I fare *much* better with pretty much anything else, including a gamepad.

IMO, we desperately need better controls than both offer with the amount of time many people spend in front of their computers, but most people are happy with sticky rubber keyboards and ergonomically disastrous mice until the day they experience an injury themselves. I know I was. Now I'm super annoyed that there are so few alternatives.

That said, throw away the cheap Logitech and get a proper keyboard. I personally use a mechanical keyboard with no ghosting that I ever noticed and super smooth, low force keys. So glad I upgraded.
