Not necessarily appropriately.

The catapult was the first one I saw, and had to accept that it was POSSIBLY MWO physics...

But I saw fire coming out of the raven, and it wasn't being hit by anything or running into anything.

Myth Busted.

It's not really a myth. It's just that the AI only uses JJs for pathing when it has no feasible way around, like when the player jumped down a cliff and the AI tries to follow.

What I saw wasn't path finding, it was just random usage.

Weirdness.

Oh and I did see a couple of WTF physics moments recently, where a mech with NO JJ got sent airborne somehow.

Still, JJ physics is much improved, annoyingly so. I like the way JJ works in MWO, even if it isn't realistic.

I once saw a mech that I got a lucky headshot on bounce way up high in the air and pinwheel around like a ragdoll. It took it a good 2-3 seconds to fall back to the ground. At least it was amusing. Posted Image

Jumping off a cliff in MW5 reminds me of leading a ridge charge in MWO.

You charge into battle, then turn around and everyone is just milling around in a group hesitant to take the plunge.

Yah I saw something similar too. Mechs, instead of falling, got lifted up in the air or falls like a doll instead of a heavy mech.

needs more Playstation controller...

I'm using keyboard and have my cycle zoom set to left shift, just like in mwo...

If I unmap it, is it still going to make me run?
