Subject: What are the benefits of Bumper Jumper?

Recently I've been trying to get better by playing MLG, and 1v1 on Octagon.

I've always heard that Bumper Jumper is the best button layout. So i gave it a shot. I played with Bumper Jumper for 10 games and I couldn't find any benefits of Bumper Jumper over the default layout.

For those of you who use Bumper Jumper, what's so good about it?

You don't have to take your thumb off off the right analog stick to jump, so...

You have more control over your aim while jumping.

It gives you a slight advantage when you strafe. You can jump when you become 1 shot and possibly throw their aim off while yours is unaffected.

Feels great, you have a little more control but I can play on default if I wanted to.

Would it be worth changing my layout from Default to BJ when I'm so used to Default?

BJ makes it harder to use armor abilities but since I don't rely on them much I think that BJ is much better than recon or default.

You pretty much can't jetpack if you use BJ since X is your AA. Otherwise, yes, you should.

Its hard to use BJ and fly at the same time


But you will find the less fly you are the better you are with BJ's

Meh, since I use Jetpack a lot I think I'll stick with default.

There is a such thing as jumping too much though. It can become a bad habit.

  • 02.12.2012 10:13 PM PDT


the one when were you have to take your thumb off the joystick to beat down someone is stupid. Its harder to aim while preforming a beat down. it you are pressing B

[Edited on 02.12.2012 10:19 PM PST]

  • 02.12.2012 10:16 PM PDT

Beatdown is on the right bumper?

Maybe you want Green-thumb with melee on the right stick. I sorta want to use that one because zoom is the 'B' button. I absolute hate zooming in with the right stick. :/

Happiness is a warm gun

I've got additional shoulder buttons to map to the AA button, so I don't have to take my thumb off the joystiq to Jump, or to sprint
