Modern Warfare 2 \u201cdolphin hop\u201d puts slide cancelling to shame Infinity WardThe removal of slide cancelling from Modern Warfare 2 has spurred the best and most creative members of the CoD community to come up with something new, and the \u201cturbo hop\u201d is a movement technique that puts the slide cancel to shame. Mobility has been a pivotal part of the latest games in the Call of Duty series. The engine that was introduced with Modern Warfare (2019) allowed for slide canceling, movement tech that went on to take over Modern Warfare for that year, Warzone, and subsequently Vanguard. Having become a series mainstay, the (attempted) removal of this movement mechanic in Modern Warfare 2 (2022) has left a hole that the CoD elite have tried to fill. Those looking for more skill expression at high levels of play have been trying everything they can to find new movement tech. A month after Modern Warfare 2\u2019s launch, some new, game-breaking movement tech has been discovered. Modern Warfare 2 \u201cdolphin hop\u201d is breaking the speed limit The first public displays of this movement tech that caught on were from Meishu and Entervene. And, while the name for this technique is still up in the air, it\u2019s been called the \u201cturbo hop,\u201d \u201ct-hop,\u201d and \u201cdolphin hop\u201d so far. MW2 players have figured out that you can dolphin dive into a climbable ledge in just the right way; you can mount it and maintain your momentum through the slide. This allows players to shoot at dolphin dive speeds while in midair. It isn\u2019t as easy as it looks to pull off, but this dolphin hop technique is incredibly effective on certain maps. Jake Lucky compiled clips from both of the aforementioned players that shows off what they\u2019re capable of doing with this movement tech. To properly do a dolphin hop, you have to hit a very specific sweet spot on a ledge. Try to think about diving in a way where the tip of your character model\u2019s toes will touch a ledge. When you try to mount from there, it\u2019ll propel you forward while remaining upright, allowing you to shoot midair. With a bit of practice, it\u2019s possible to replicate this technique consistently. Whether or not Infinity Ward attempts to patch this out remains to be seen.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
