well?
depends on my mood
top cause im not a fag
>>338210071
Depends on if there's fall damage and if the second jump resets your fall distance for taking said damage.
top
>needing to double jump for that gap size
fucking hell lads
>>338210292
This
The bottom one isn't a double jump because you only utilize one jump, you fall off initially. Maybe in-air jump, if you wanna call it that.
Fag.
>>338210071
i do the second because i like INSANE thrills! Livin on the edge.
>>338210292
this pretty much, i default to the top because why would i risk dropping further than i had to unless there was a reason
>>338210292
Fucking Dragon's Dogma and the levitate not reseting fall damage
>>338210071
Top because if you extrapolate it, it will actually get across the gap without a second jump.
>>338210374
THIS
just do it in one satisfying leap
double jumping is for queers
>>338210071
i time jumps accordingly instead of spamming jump therefore i can be as effecient as possible
>>338210071
>not in the middle to get the maximum distance
Step the fuck up senpai
>>338210390
That's exactly what a double jump is you retarded faggot.
Bottom gives you more distance
>>338210390
Donkey Kong Country is really the only game I can think of that won't let you double jump, but will let you mid air jump
>>338210071
Usually Top, but there is one mandatory jump in Maximo which requires you to essentially triple jump by running off the ledge, then jumping and then double jumping.
It was really out of place, it was the intro level to the hub of the final world, you have to jump off some siege engine thing.
Very strange.
The top one clearly has a running start and wouldn't need to jump twice.
And from the looks of the bottom one, he just ran off the cliff and jumped once, though he does have the ability to jump in mid-air.
>>338210583
i'm pretty sure two jumps are required for something to be a double jump
>>338210583
A double jump implies the ability to jump twice, once off the ground, and then once in air. Let's hypothetically put our jump on button A. The top uses two A-presses, while the bottom only uses one A-press. It's one jump.
>>338210071
The bottom is only 1 jump
>>338210071
The top one is the smart one because you can make it over that pit with only one jump and then you'd still have one jump left in case something unexpected comes along as you are about to land.
>Drop down part way to make sure it's not a fake bottomless pit
>Double jump back up
>>338210583
>Mario 64
>>338210706
Technically to jump only requires a half-A-press faggot.
>>338210071
Ignoring the fact that you don't even need to double jump (according to the known trajectory of the top path) to get across that, AND the fact that you could probably get across that by just sprinting off the edge in most games, I am the bottom.
What about half jumps?
I do both like im sure any other real human bean does
>>338210071
Top. I tend to not enjoy putting myself in riskier situations unnecessarily
>>338210838
A jump is a jump. you can't say it's only a half
>>338210621

>>338210838
epic meme man EPIC!
>>338210838
what about 25% jumps?
>>338210390It's a half A-press fall, then a jump, actually.
>>338210970
One and a half
>>338210374
This right here. No need to use a double jump for that gap.
>>338210493
I need the Webm of the Strider move that lets them take no fall damage from insane heights. You know the one
>>338210071
Bottom. I love to make my jumps perfect and efficient as possible. All that time spent in the air hovering can get you killed but a descent would be faster.
>>338210970
1.5
>fall of ledge
>wall jump to other wall (full A press)
>wall jump to safety (half A press)
>>338210071
but running off the ledge doesnt count as a jump, fixed it for you OP
>>338210071
Bottom. Gotta conserve that forward momentum.
>>338210071
>two types
>>338210970
2 presses, unless the initial fall trajectory is only possible with a .5 A press, in which case it's 2.5 A presses.
>>338211084
>>338211268
You don't understand A presses. The second jump is a second A press, you can't only benefit from the jump, when you press it down initially you're in the hold phase too.
>>338210071
Doesn't matter either way.
>>338210071
Why not just do 1 jump? The top one looks like it'll clear the gap easily without the second jump.
>>338211310
this nigga get it.
>>338211389
is that third type a retard or something?
Im top, but bottom is legitimately the smart way to do it, you have more control on your land, and are farther from unseen enemies, and can see your landing spot better
but its worse if something is jumping out of the pit
ghouls and ghosts veterans know that you must make several jumps in several directions before committing to a complete forward double jump
>>338210956
a sorcerer is not the same as a wizard
>>338211310
N guy would just run faster until he doesn't need to jump
>>338211493
>He doesn't bunnyhop to maintain forward momentum
Stopping just before the gap is a stupid move though.
>>338210798
An A press is an A press. You can't say it's only half
>>338210929
But first we need to talk about inter dimensional time travel!
>>338210071
If timed correctly, I think you could do it in 1 jump.One less button press for me
>>338211856
>>338210798
It's called a down-press, you memesters, now bugger off.
>>338211846
ah shit i didn't realize that's what it was you're right.

>>338212220
Nessfags are the worst.
>>338210071
Neither, this gap clearly only requires a single jump, if that. With enough speed you might just run over it.
>>338211856
Yeah sure, """""""Henry"""""""
Depends on the game's physics.

Jesus christ who wouldn't take the knifedude who gives you a bat. It's not like people have naruto powers in real life just break his fuckin knees.
>>338212569
Jump over it, then climb over the wall. Yes, you could do that, although I think you needed to get hit to boost over.

How often do you play a side-scrolling platformer with fall damage?
>>338212569
>>338210071
The second (bottom arrow) is best because it wouldn't result in any fall damage... obviously a trick question.

"Hold L to levitate" gameshark codes in Ocarina of Time work this way iirc.

The old Prince of Persia games have it
>>338213434
I boot up Spelunky about once a month at least
Isn't the point of a double jump to gain access to a higher levels then one jump rather then serve as a flash move like in OPs to jump to a lower level I'm style
>>338210071
I jump even lower than the bottom one.
Anything else gets you spiked in smash.

High jump can actually help you avoid some ground-based attacks. Low jump is for pussies who can't into aiming their landing destination
>>338210071
wtf? that gap does not need double jump retards

>>338210706
in most games mid air jump are considered double jump and you cant jump a second time off them.
>>338213029
Just turn 360 degrees around and walk away.
Also, congrats everyone that took the bat over the knife - you're officially dead now.
>>338210970
literally me
>>338213029
is the bat wood or metal?
Is the knife steel or plastic?
>>338210706
While that's true, the term "double jump" in video games is misleading. Almost 100% of the time it's actually a midair jump that can be used once between landings.
>>338213319

Shut up """"""Henry""""""
>>338214694
Name me one game where you don't have to be grounded for the first jump.
DKC games are king of utilizing the bottom one.
>slide, double jump, tornado spin down
Im a Crashfag
bottom because i live on the fucking edge
>>338213191
I like you annon
>>338210071
Top leaves you hanging in the air forever like a retard directly above your enemy asking "PLEASE STAB ME, SHOOTING ME WOULD BE FINE TOO"
bottom allows you to slash him on the way in. It's plainly superior.
>>338218373
i like you too sempai

>Fall from really high place in vidya

Why does this happen? Do I self insert too hard?
>>338220230
I mean, in 2d i don't really get that but did you ever play minecraft, build up to build limit and hop off? shit's intense man.
>>338214140
source?
>>338211310
But you still have the same movespeed in the air
>>338213029
anyone who says bat is retarded
a bat requires a solid hit, one that must connect. with the knife all you have to do is dodge/deflect a single strike and then you're close enough for a quick reach around and kidney shot or straight heart hit
>>338213029
I'll take the knife against the bat.
One good stab ends a fight.

PURIFICATION IN PROGRESS
>>338210551
Fucking this. Most efficient double jump
>>338210071
considering fall damage is negated after second jump, I like jumping after falling
>>338217708
There really isnt a true double jump in DKC. Thats just using roll mechanics to your advantage.
I do think there were a couple special zone stages in DKC3 that required the suicide jump to finish the stage which was cool.
>>338221771
I want to become the guy
>>338211108
Skull splitter? I think it doesn't negate fall damage if you do it while already in the air
>>338210071
>not taking the top route
>>338224212
oh shit, new tech.
hue
>>338223646
It doesn't if you jump prior to doing it, but if you run off a high ledge and do it without touching the jump button then there's no fall damage.
You shouldn't be able to jump again once you are already making downward motion.
Double jumping upwards = I meant to do this, I am trying to get somewhere
Double jumping while falling = get out of jail free card for idiots who didn't plan ahead
>>338210071
Depends on the game, for example in wings of Vi you would always do the lower option because falling of a platform doesn't count as using a jump.
>>338213029
>hurr durr X because no one's a naruto brah range > damage
You idiots, do you really think someone waiting around with a baseball bat and a knife and is willing to give the bat to the first guy they see isn't prepared? Do you really think they aren't a fucking ninja master?
>>338210186
this desu
>>338212638
>that guy who ALWAYS fucks it up
>>338227703
>the hunter/lock that doesnt unsummon their pet
Depends on if a collectable is located between the platfrorms, or if it's like Mega Man where an annoying enemy jumps out of the pit.
>>338210706
and theoretically, a one and a half jump would be one a press and one half press
>>338210071
depends on the mechanics on the game. do i slow down to jump, and benefit from running straight off? is there fall damage? etc. i do what is best
>>338210071
in most games I've played with a double jump like that, usually the top path leads to me taking more fall damage than the bottom path. This is usually because the game calculates fall damage based on force by acceleration due to gravity.
In TF2 this is apparent, the Scout can double jump and he can fall from great heights and not take damage because of this, that last double jump negates all his momentum and then he lands light as a feather
>>338227703
>>338210071
In some games, doing the second one will mitigate fall damage, so it is obviously superior for those games. In some games, you can jump the furthest by doing your second jump at the top of your first jump. In those games, you wouldn't even make it across the gap if you went with the second method, thus the first would be better.
You are honestly a casual for thinking one way works in every game.
