How to Sprint Optimally in Half-Life 2 (and DODS I guess)

[@Pinsplash]

this is the most important thing today

[@rainbowdooche6957]

idk man the Soulja Boy performance at the inauguration was pretty LIT

[@aaroo9554]

I like how dods handles sprinting, it's used more as an emergency movement rather than common game sprinting

[@TommyCD1]

I thought the title said DDOS not DODS, and was fully prepared for source to have some server breaking bug with sprinting.

[@ThuNguyen-nc3sb]

Lol

[@bukachell]

bro i also thought it said ddos and was so confused

[@bagelmaster2]

I just love the the implications of the b-roll footage, with Gordon Freeman just deciding to hotfoot it up the entire coast to Nova Prospekt instead of taking the car like a sane person. It somehow hits different than when I see speedruns ABH their way through Highway 17.

[@SuperCityscan]

I did Highway 17 and Sandtraps once without the buggy and no speedrun moves. There are 2 places where you will be in trouble without the buggy. The first is at Odessa's, the gate won't be opened without a car, but you can just jump pass the gate. The second is the broken bridge after the crane section. You could ABH over it, but if you are a noob like me you could just smg grenade jump over it with a few tries. Make sure you have enough health.

2:45 Jesus, that displacement connections under water is bugging me

[@SebTheSamMarten]

It makes sense that in DODS you don't want to be sprinting basically ever. Unlike in COD, in real life if you sprint places you will tire out for WAY longer, especially when you factor in adrenaline comedown fatigue and the fact you're carrying at least 60 pounds of gear. It's meant to be used to get out of line of sight, to cross gaps in cover, etc. Not as your default mode of movement. xD

[@npc_pigeon]

me when incoming! they’re shelling us!

[@kornsuwin]

as one of the few people that play dod:s at a casual level this is everything

[@LonesomeBean]

Back when I played DODS, sprinting into a corner would significantly increase stamina recovery rate. Don't know if that's still in the game tho.

[@Pinsplash]

in that case you wouldn't be moving so you would have the 60% rate

[@LonesomeBean]

Ah, could have sworn it was faster cuz I had to keep sprinting. But thanks for clarifying

[@groundjet]

I love how source engine speedruns have become a proper science LOL

[@bunnyonabunwithagunnicepun5689]

Finally, love for DODS…

[@dk1480]

Sprinting being mid in DoD is realistic, because for long distances, slow and steady wins the race. Sprinting is terrible for long distance running. With all your script machinations you could only match the default running efficiency + 5, and doing so isn't humanly possible too. Good stuff

[@NKVD.Officer]

as someone with legs, i can sprint.

[@Cats-TM]

Can confirm, as someone who likes DOD:S, sprinting is terrible.

[@lukapetrovic412]

I crouch walk as recovery (used to is the term I'll be using from now on), great video!

[@bounceb]

i dont understand

[@mugatu3578]

"So you should be able to hit 'em off in the desert if you really hold the shit outta that shift key..."

[@M4rco880]

Now this, is quality content

[@Eyeling]

Now do it for Classic Day of Defeat ;)

[@DevilNeverKnows]

I'm waiting for the day you end up famous from all the info you've gathered on this game

[@d3layed]

Pinsplash my beloved💖

How to Sprint Optimally in DoDS: *don't*

[@notalostnumber8660]

You need to be moving at less than 100u/s what if you used analog movement so that you could change between full speed and slow walking?

[@notalostnumber8660]

Since this is the source engine, you can add this to your alias macro with a cl_ variable (can't remember the name right now), so you can do it automatically instead of trying to mess with a joystick or analog keyboard

[@RYRY1002]

4:22 Gordon Freeman!

[@Saver310]

YES FINALLY DOD:S CONTENT!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@HubertBeckham]

What i do is i press shift and jump and let go of shift and it basically doesnt deplete at all

[@qewobob]

good video thank you

[@Cantav9907]

idk why did i watch this but i'm geniunly trust ur math

[@silvialuzmia]

Such simple mechanic have quite complicated thing.

[@scarletcrusader5431]

Me when TELEFON MAUST

[@GuythatisocoolSothere]

I haven’t watched it yet but this is probably good

[@ntn999]

Don't you get an increased moving speed in HL2 if running while touching a wall?

[@halfdeadthomas1]

wooo another pinsplash video

[@derDooFi]

name a better multiplayer shooter than dods

[@subsidiary7397]

what ahppened to ur entropy zero 2 vid

[@channel8896]

was controversial as hell so he took it down not entirely sure if he ever addressed it

[@VitriolicVermillion]

wait what? i missed it! boo :( what was the controversy?

[@soupcangaming662]

okay, now use your arms as well

[@nil0bject]

reverse bhop

[@kriskarmaa]

I feel bad for you that you needed to do math

[@SASTSimon]

Hi

[@NoName-st5so]

aaaaahhhhhh....hard to understand this scientist!

[@769JFX]

!

[@TheBloodyViki]

Never heard someone actually say "HL2" or "DODS" 'til today.
