Lori is good in online game or not?
I thought about to play with Lori in online. Because too many people said her jump is not enough high and buggy...etc. What do you think her is a good choice or not?

Lori is my best character, in my opinion. However you will find it is different for everyone because that is the nature of gaming. I find that using the special jumps of Jazz or Spaz is actually most of the time more risky than rewarding because the amount of time you are delayed or slowed by using that move. Lori can instead take a powerup with full ammo in the shortest amount of time, faster than Spaz sidekick or Jazz uppercut, and without moving as much either. And lately I am playing as Jazz anyway. The disadvantage of jumping not as high for Lori is also true. But her advantage is speed and range of movement when taking powerups. And the ability to kick through some walls.
My take on this is probably based on Lori being most similar to JJ1 Jazz because of her jumps and me being first a JJ1 player. The characters seem more or less balanced, ignoring the fact that Spaz is the most popular in JJ2. Last edited by Jett; Mar 5, 2013 at 11:24 AM. |

Although, each character has their own benefits, and there are many different situations for each character that make them better than the others, so really, none of them are the best, or the worst. It just depends on your play-style. Although, I strongly disadvise using Lori due to bugs. So, really, There is no best or worst character. Just choose whichever one best suits the way you play. tl;dr: Lori is fine online if she fits your play-style. |

So what now? Now I play with her or not in online? Because in single player is best choice Lori for me.

I tried Lori today in online game. She faster than Jazz or Spaz. I think she is a good choice for me. I has'nt sense any bug for while. In Battle Mode a little weak, but I can balance the run speed and firepower.

I used Lori a lot, and it usually depends on the level you're playing. Some popular levels don't work so well as her, for example battle1, facing worlds, gauntlet(urgh this level), semiconductor (I know about the wallkick tricks, but the lack of a quick high jump is hindering) and jungles edge. Admittedly, I generally find Spaz better in multiplayer (except in ground force, where copter ears are a godsend, though actually I find Jazz the best in ground force where allowed) but I just find it more satisfying not to win with him. I agree with what some of the people said in this thread, it can help with taking PU's really fast. Her kick is also overpowered in streetfight, but I consider it a novelty gamemode. Learn to time high jumps with momentum, because you're going to need it. Also, all characters run the same speed. It's funny because I hear some people say Lori's the fastest, then some who say she's the slowest. It's an illusion. With the fast pacedness of online play, Jazzes uppercut in online play unfortunately isn't very useful, though there are some occasional situations and parts in some levels that uppercut reach only/faster, that Lori can't. Infact some specially placed powerups in a few levels are made to make uppercut work best on them. TL;DR. She's good in some levels but be prepared for non friendly ones every now and then. JJ2+ fixed the annoying bugs out of her

I'm understand. But she's have same run speed? Lori is faster then other Jackrabbits. But I can reach the higher places with Lori just know her technique.

I bothered to check exact values. Actual jump heights in ascending order, rounded to the nearest integer:
Spaz's double jump while standing: 211 pixels Jazz's uppercut: 226 pixels Jazz's golden jump: 239 pixels Spaz's double jump while running: 296 pixels Spaz's golden double jump: 317 pixels Data for Spaz is approximate because jump height depends on timing of the second jump; actual maximum values might be slightly higher but certainly not lower.

Was completely surprised when I found this out the other day, but: Lori doesn't go as far upwards on springs and Jazz and Spaz do.

I found out this a few months ago. I think it's to do with her sprite hotspot, which appears to be more at the bottom and less at the top. It's still annoying in some levels though.

(By the way, is a Golden Jump a Running Jump that causes the character to roll into a ball, a bit like Sonic does?) And, as you said before, Spaz's jump can be higher if you time it right, but I still think that there is no best character. Quote:
So, to sum most of the previous on-topic posts up: Lori is actually quite useful online if she suits your play-style. |

Read: Streetfight. Spam kick in a corner where you can do it infinite to win, unless you're unlucky with lag though you could possibly be hit by sugar rush if the level has food. It's a boring way to win though. I prefer fooling opponents and collecting food. It's basically no fire and there's a ton of poorly made levels for it.
