Quake - Power Bunnyhopping

"Technique of tapping +forward every time you hit the ground. This reduces the speed loss on contact, which enables top speeds of over 500 - and even 600 - units/s. Most people do fine without this technique."

Map: 100m
Click the "here" in "Get the map here".

So wait, I'm not supposed to hold foward? You mean to tell me that was the one detail that hid under my nose for literally 20 years now?

It's cool to see that even quake had a sort of tapstrafing before titanfall and apex

[LukeLane]

Cool! I tried bhopping like I (kind of) do in Left 4 Dead 2, and it kind of works, but this seems to work a lot better.

[Sentay]

that's a lot of finger gymnastics just to move quickly

[totara]

Nice mate! Every game has a little trick you can use to get around faster, haha. Makes it much easier for speedrunners :)

Why turn always run off and set cl_forwardspeed 200? I do understand facing forward and pressing forward when landing though, to reduce friction. Not using run key now that always run is off? How do you get the speedometer to show?

Very good video. When I first tried Quake 1 running I came from Half-Life 1 so it wasn't entirely strange to me. :D

[buzzlightyer]

is this what ranger's sports career looked like before the events of quake 1?

[-nd]

so if you just add +speed in autoexec it's as if you have always run on?

[GFUexe]

how do i install the speedometer please?

[metalvideos]

is there a way to get this map with the bunnyhop speed meter (not sure how to call it haha)

[GroinMischief]

Seems like you're holding two movement keys every time you land.. What if you bunnyhopped diagonally to begin with? Wouldn't the speed loss be reduced that way also?

[yuriusutr]

what does forward+ mean
what does mmb do

[DrQuadapus]

how is the middle click different from the regular forward key?? i dont understand

[milesbrown]

the real question is why are your movment keys ESDF????

[Honuhg]

Excuse me, but do you know how to install a map in quake?

[psychedeliccarrie]

Mind posting the lyrics to the Nine Inch Nails song?

[CHMP]

can't you just hold forward the whole time? that's how i've always done it but it's not like i'm a pro or anything

[lefnx]

bruh, if u have always run off, u must use shift or some button for run?? did u use this in your speedruns?

[BillMCypher]

is it possible to bhop in quake 64, i got it on an emulator and i'm wanting to try to do it
