Yes, I saw in the known issues thread they're addressing the whole "deploy next to a jump pad" deal, but I did a search in the thread and didn't see other mentions. Like getting continuously bounced on a jump pad when entering it normally, getting launched for a ring out, or it simply not taking you where it should go (The ones near the annihilator in Lazor Razor tend to land me on the ground again, though this one's at least partially my aim). Seems some classes are more prone to getting stuck, too.
Oh man, if I had a nickel for every time the jump pad at my spawn of Steel Peel threw me against the wall into a ring out, I'd be a rich man. :lol: Also, the ledges on top of the jump pads are not good. Jump on jump pad > hit ledge above > fall down > jump pad > Rinse > Repeat. Very annoying indeed. :x
It happens if you aren't lined up perfectly.... you get stuck in a rapid bounce mode. If you try you can get stuck that way on purpose, although I usually get stuck bouncing by accident. Jump pads will knock you out (the one on steel peel at your base) if someone hit the jump at just the right time either before or after you. These problems are not lag related.
No problem, I like this game and I'd love to be able to help. Also, you can taunt while bouncing on the jump pad (very difficult but possible). I think the rapid bounce mode happens mostly for the larger modeled gunner and tank.
Also in wheel arena, is that GrenAID III? Anyhow, sometimes I'll hit the jump pad to get away from the annihilator/juice inner wheel only to barely jump and fall to my death. Not sure what that is.
