'Bunny Hopping' is the worst thing in L4D2. And I have a solution for getting rid of it.
The chain hopping know as 'Bunny Hopping' is getting out of control. It gives an unfair advantage and it is obnoxious to see someone 'running' at 3x regular speed through maps.

The fix?

Make jumping connected to the stamina used up by gun butting. Simple as that. 4 jumps and you are DONE.

1) consistent bunny hops are incredibly hard to do.
2) doing them shows alot of skill.
3) you cant really shoot accurately while concentrating on doing them.
4) its a 9yo game, you honestly think your gonna get a fix?
5) you should learn it yourself then you probably won't have an issue with it.

6) only a handful of players know how to do it so they can separate themselves from the rest of the group and easily fall into a well-prepared trap of the infected

7) bunnyhopping is completely useless in normal gameplay and is mostly exclusive to speedrunners who only do it when speedrunning with their team privately.

It's fun to do tho, if you manage to connect multiple jumps :D

yeah, but it gives you no benefit at all. as most of the time you'll either make one small mistake and be slowed down, or get too far away for your team to cover you. Plus the time you focus on bhopping is less time spent on clearing the area, so another downside.

it is almost entirely useless on your average run. also the way source gimped it makes them incredibly difficult to time. just join a server with a mod that enables in natively and see all hell break loose in no time.

Only use for it at most that is useful is when low on health and trying to keep up with team to find a better spot to heal, or atleast versus wise, in others like campaign just to keep up with team and to avoid having to heal too early.
It has its moments, but it's not something to rely on.

Bunny hopping has it's benefits . You clear a chapter faster means less infected spawns . Which translates to survival . You have then accomplished the goal & move onto the next part of the game . Simply put , it's a tool for winning .

Unless you WANT other people to lose . But then you should not be playing in a public game if you want that onto others . If you do have this kind of mentality , then seriously W.T.F ?!:steamfacepalm:

Idk man, bunny hopping has always been part of Valve's games, ah the good old Counter Strike 1.5 days.

It takes skill, definitely doable by everyone. Just use it when you can, if you don't like it, don't do it, and let others be. They did buy the game afterall, they can do what they want no?

bunnyhopping in a team where the others can't bhop is just handicapping your team as a whole, so if they want to handicap their team they're welcome to lmao.

Doesn't change what I stated though man, people can do what they want, tk, bhop, leave, eat all the health, it sucks but that's how it is.

Whether it handicaps or not, it has its uses too.
