Yeah, it started as a bug and the devs loved it so they kept it. So now it's intentional. Kinda like Street Fighter 2 combos.

What do you mean by street fighter 2 combo care to elaborate?

[SirAaronIII]

Combos weren't supposed to exist, but since then they have become pretty much essential in fighters. Or so I think it goes.

That kept happening to me too, until I decided to just run away. 20 levels later, I don't go flying anymore. I only kinda flop over.

Expanding on what SirAaronIII said:

When Street Fighter 2 came out, fighters were basically like Karateka (the old one) or wrestling games. You punched and kicked and maybe flying kicked and shot fireballs and that was it. You'd hit an enemy, they'd go flying for a bit. Land. Get up. Repeat. Then a fledgling pro scene for Street Fighter 2 discovered animation bugs that basically allowed you to cancel animations before they fully played out and keep attacking while the enemy was being juggled in the air. Capcom liked the bug so much they kept it around and that's how combos and the modern, fluid, exciting fighting game was born.

Ugh... can't stand combos in fighting games.  Nothing like having to invest hundreds of hours (only slight hyperbole) committing stuff to muscle memory before you can even think about having fun with a game, because if you didn't, you can be sure the other guy did.  I wish there were more fighting games out there that followed a Smash Bros type formula.

Depends on if you're talking online or local multiplayer.

Because a friend and I play tons of fighting games together, and the winner is largely dictated by which of us can find the most innovative way to prevent the other one from actually playing.

And Doom isn't an FPS because it doesn't have rocket jumping or headshots.

So any modder here willing to show us some screen shot of your mod you made?

[WillowLuman]

Uh... I've got this one dungeon I've been working on since forever. Not much unique to look at though, except for one big cellar with pillars. Hold on...
