Rocketjumping is just straight down, and you're aiming for a general area. It'll be a bit more difficult aiming behind you in a spot that'll blast you to the perfect location... well, if the place you're going to has a small platform. I'm thinking for more precision trick jumps, but plus you'll be going a bit faster. Maybe not too much harder, but a bit in any case.

Always wondered that about the bank. I mean really, 9-12 on saturday? And they're so tired from their long 3 hour shift they gotta take all of sunday off.
No offence to anybody working at a bank...

Edit, also " Dodge 1000 damage in a single life using your Bonk! Atomic Punch.", makes me think that this doesn't just make you run faster......

Since you guys haven't played cp_egypt, it's actually a really good map.

he could still do his invunerable run past your entire team and make atleast your scouts fall back to cover backcaps effectively leaving you a man down (2 chase 1 to be sure if he backcaps you lose) and killing your push. yay?
Well remember the cooldown from after using it makes the Scout super slow as well, so if they aren't in a safe spot after using it, they're pretty much dead. Also I would figure rockets still work, it'd be stupid if it made the Scout fully invincible AND immune to any kind of knockback.
Still if you can pick up intel in this mode, it will functionally ruin Mach 4.

I can't imagine they would let you pick up the intel in that mode. It would ruin most CTF maps.

On the blog, it is written,
Quote:youâll be dodginâ bullets like they ainât even there!
So I guess it won't work on rockets/grenades/stickies/flaregun/fire/melee.
That said, it'll be such a damn pain in the ass for Medics...
Re: HEY LOOK SCOUT UPDATE ON THE 24TH - Loqutus - 02-21-2009
If you can't dodge fire or rockets, I don't think I'd ever find a good use for that drink, except for specialized situations.
Which is a very, very good thing.

I think the Force-A-Nature will work sort of like Fortress Forever flamethrower boosting, but instead of holding down mouse1 you have to keep clicking.

[/quote]It's mentioned in some of the achievements, so we're speculating about it's effects based on the details given by Valve based on maps, and achievements.

jesus christ any % chance to dodge bullets is incredibly retarded. i land a direct shotgun on a scout. now lets roll the dice to see if i hit him!
isnt the entire point of a fps to be skill based rather than an rpg where its half chance?
Oh well. Doesn't really matter that much.

And where the fuck did you get the assumption that just because he drank an energy drink no one can hit him..at all?

It was 3 am, I was lazy...
Okay, how's this... Using the Force-of-Nature as another jump would be like doing a rocket jump in mid air as a scout.... good?

Probably from the achievement that is for getting a 1000 points of "Miss" damage. If you only had a % chance of dodging a stream of bullets from a heavy, that still doesn't seem very possible. It may not (I would hope) work against rockets and Demo weapons and possibly Pyros but it would probably make you immune to heavy's, snipers, sentries, and shotguns at least.
Re: HEY LOOK SCOUT UPDATE ON THE 24TH - Badgerman of DOOM - 02-21-2009
My guess is that all bullet and projectile weapons will miss. Fire and explosions will hit, as well as melee, but melee might have a 50/50 hit rate.
Re: HEY LOOK SCOUT UPDATE ON THE 24TH - Spore - 02-21-2009
can you drink the energy drink and just stand still, but have bullets still have the miss effect on you? :3
