Bhop..

I started playing Crossfire a month ago and my favorite modes so far are SnD and GM.

I'm pretty good at both but I'm having a problem in GM. I have no idea how to kill a GOOD bhopper...which really ****es me off.

Any tips?

  • Spray?

    Killing bhoppers in my opinion is just luck, with a bit of reflexes. Predict where they will go, and be sure to listen carefully (not a good idea to learn in pubs).

    if you spray and hit them, wont it show the ghosts outline, so in that case you could use spray before they get away to quickly?

    Coming from someone who barely touches Ghost Mode...

    Umm...I think you should know that bhopping in GM allows ghosts to be invisible so I don't see why would spraying be useful if I get caught reloading afterwards..
  • Ok I decided to start my own little contest. No one needs to enter or say there playing, because your all automatically playing lolz. When i come to check my profile like I have been, I'll scan the forums and if I find a thread interesting enough I'll post in it. Only one post every day or so, and maiby a few more on the weekends.

    Anyway if you make a thread interesting enough to get me to post then you win, and I'll write your name down for a prize I'll offer in the future. The prize is optional of course and many might not even like or care. But basically I'm doing this contest on my own and you don't even have to know about it for it to work xD

    I am adding a category to include if there is a post with large amounts of win in it. I'll quote it and declare a winner.

    Any way gratz your the fourth winner Zoyerin.

    The best way to kill ghosts is pinpointing. Which the simplest way to start learning is with a friend that will hold still or against noobs who don't bhop.(headsets highly recommended) To start, look back and forth in the direction of breath. you will hear it go from left to right speaker. If the sound is balanced into both ears then they're right infront of you. after much experience and practice you will find yourself not having to sway as much and will actually be able to pinpoint with a single breath.

    Techniques to help pinpoint is to strafe and move as if you were in a knife fight, which causes you to move within range and back out and move the breath from ear to ear faster while making yourself a harder target to bhop kill. also use the terrain as much as possible to force bhopers to trip or avoid you, or otherwise move into places easy to pinpoint in(like a hallway).
  • bunnyhopping is really really cheap in this game. You can double jump, bhop without taking damage, bhopping to tank dmg and bhop to avoid knock back.

    Me? Fourth winner? 0_o

    Cool! =D



    On topic : Thanks a lot man! That's a really good tip. I'll try to use terrain a bit more. Let's hope that I'll get better killing bhoppers now...


    Thanks again :D
  • Bhoping exists in CF?
    I hadn't seen one yet.

    I'm saying if you know where they're before they bunny hop.

    Yes it does. It allows ghosts to be invisible while moving in GM...and this is my problem.

    Anyway if you want to see a good example of bhop :

    Ooh, THOSE Bhoppers.. my mind was coordinated to Counter strike bhoppers.
    Sometimes i have problem with them too, but like the second poster(?) said, its all about pinpointing them, which makes me blast up my speakers but having a Turtle Beach headset would help you pinpointing them. :o
  • Turn up your headphones. If you hear something, back away and spray. Cause if they're bhopping towards you, and your standing still, your a sitting duck. Move constantly, or get to a place where you think they can't bhop straight up to you.

    -Hope it helps.

  • use iphoenix's guide to b hopping

    its a good guide and u can practice timing with it
    i use method or gen 2, pretty decent gen, when done rite u can move around just like when ur running backwards, only disadvantage is u cant see waht behinde u
    may have to adjust the timing, to faster if u want to go faster, hold s for longer time to go faster, practice with a friend and ask him if ur visable

    I think you should read posts instead of thread titles.
  • You can pinpoint bunnyhoppers.
    HELLO?????
  • listen for breath. no other way unless the person fail bhops. i know 2 amazing bhoppers that i couldnt ever kill - nest.mc and -H1N1-

    respect to them :D
  • Just learn to pinpoint, maybe? No matter how fast the bunny, even with breath down, you can still hear them before they get to you.
  • Gm, as well as killing bhoppers, is all about thinking and planning

    you have to figure out where ur enemy is going to go, and track them down

    first off, avoid the places where its easy to bhop, ie the lobby in lab, these are the places bhoppers will hang around and it will be hard to kill them since they have plenty of space to attack you or escape

    try to go to places where there are ramps or obstacles, making a failed bhop very common

    if they are in full bhop, there is nothing much you can do other than pinpoint and spray...

    but if they do mess up, notice the direction they're facing/bhopping to and predict and spray the path they will go
