I'm at work till 10, if anyone's still playing after 11, i'd be up for some more vs. Wanted to play last night, but ended up falling asleep at 9:30pm Very very same thing happened to me.. no idea what had me so tired. Going to see Bond tonight so no joy for me, might be online around 11 for perhaps 45 mins tops. btw - I discovered a new definition for the term "joy" Playing infected against alkaw and 3 of his clones. "lol alkaw" "GRRRRR stop all targeting me"

Now I accept that the jumps and leaps are great there, yes I do, however!!!!!!!
None of that will help you with a survivor melee in your face will it? It's like keepie uppies in football, yes you can one 1 million in a row, but what use is that in a real game?
Having said that I wish I could do it like that, would put you in some great positions to launch an attack.

Time to explain... Firstly.. Jumping like that is important to reach HIGH places... If you jump on a survivor from a great height, you do INSTANT damage to them before you even start clawing away! I've managed 20 instant damage from a high warehouse building - That's 20% of there health lost instantly, and if no-one's around to knock the hunter off, that player is going down FAST! Secondly.. For distraction reasons.. If a hunter is jumping around like mad, the survivors get scared.. try and shoot it.. That's a great time for a boomer to approach the rear! Thirdly: How to do it... Simply launch yourself at a wall... As soon as you hit the wall, press your mouse button again and look in the direction you want to jump... takes a bit of practice, but it's good

I tried this out some on Monday night -
If any of you have played Shadow Warrior on the original nintendo it comes a bit easier - also spiderman 2 on playstation 2 / xbox is a good learning curve. The only thing to remember is that you don't jump as far if jump isn't charged (crtl) - you can charge in mid air - helps a lot.
The best thing about hunter freerunning is that (as si mentioned) you are bloody bloody hard to hit and its a great distraction, it also usually makes survivors stop and shoot which is great as if they are standing near each other you will get a knockback on remaining survivors when you pin.
Hunter knockback is ideal for attack co ordination!
