Quake Live strafe jump troubleshooting video tutorial by J0Z
This video tutorial is probably one of the most important publication for anyone new to the game. Not only it explains strafing in written word, it also shows you a video demonstration and what keystrokes are made during the jump.
Also inside this thread you will find a link to a map made by RAZ3R called raztrainql_beta3, which is a map combining all the jumps you find in Quake Live maps (example: Campgrounds bridge-to-rail jump and many, many more. ... )
So be sure to jump into the thread and learn all about it. But be warned! This might actually increase your skill!!!
