There are far too many pixel jumps in tribulation mode and with the game engine + complications of lag, it creates a very unfun experience.

Clearly this was made to be 3D IWBTG, and in IWBTG, you lose your 2nd jump if you leave the platform, basically teaching you to jump while ON platforms. GW2 for the reason of either 1) lag or 2) the game engine, had you jump after leaving the platform. This really isn’t logical… I can’t jump IRL if I run off a cliff.

I doubt Josh or someone is going to go in and redo all the pixel jumps, but hopefully for the future you give more breathing room.

There is difference between the visible model and collision hitboxes for characters (all races and body types have the same size hitbox, for balance reasons in normal gameplay). Also the platforms are physically a bit larger than their render, presumably to combat lag.

Jumping is also a little different, since you can change your momentum and direction mid jump, you are expected to figure this out, I guess. If you jump first and begin moving forward after the initial momentum is up not forward, and while you can change it mid jump the normal jump duration is often too short to make the longer jumps this way.

If you are an asura, yes that means you have to jump slightly later than what your eyes would tell you to, because the model is so much smaller than the character hitbox.

well in that case, platforms need to be increased in size so asurans can do it without jumping while off the ledge.

No.

TM is the hardmode and meant to be unfair.

There’s enough whining because of bug fixes in NM.

there is a difference between unfair and unpolished broken gameplay. i guess the checkpoint in w2z2 should stay inside spikes then since its unfair according to the people of this thread.

i consider these pixel jumps buggy for asuran characters, period.

im not sure why the fanboys of this forum section defend such buggy unpolished content. there are over 1000 IWBTG fan games that are properly made and challenging. IWBTGW2 is simply broken. this is also the only precision platformer where latency actually will ruin your experience. single player games i run on my pc dont have internet latency.
