when genji is in mid air, about to double jump off of a wall, he can only do so if he was holding space the whole time.
ie. 100% repeateable…
press space to jump,
-press space to wall climb while in mid air
-press space to jump a second time (UNABLE TO DO SO)
This has been around since the triple jump nerf
The only way to perform a successful double jump off of a wall is if you are holding space the entire time.
ie. This is the only way to double jump off of a wall
-hold space to jump
-maintain holding space to wallclimb while in mid air
-press space to jump a second time.
You said you’re pressing space to jump once, pressing it again to wall climb, and then trying to press it a third time to jump again. But the second jump is consumed when you try to wall climb, you just don’t cover any distance with it before the wall climb initiates.
Just because someone disagrees with you (and points out your understanding of the game is faulty, no less) doesn’t mean they don’t understand you. That isn’t an excuse.
ok…
the second jump is not consumed… that is why it was called triple jump before ie. jump jump wall climb jump… because before the wall climb would reset your double jump
if one way is considered true, then the other is a bug because they should both function the same
… No. Triple jump was when Genji actually had 3 jumps. It’s not a bug. It’s how the ability is intended to function. The jump is consumed because you pressed the jump key again. It doesn’t care that you were trying to wall climb.
Because they both use the same key. You only get 2 jumps wall climb or not. It does not reset if you wall climb. That would be unbelievably OP for mobility.
If you’d like to jump after your wall climb, you’ll have to hold down space on the first jump, otherwise, you’re going to have to choose between wall climb and double jump.
Heres a video of a pro genji explaining what TRIPLE JUMP is

also this is from patch notes…
Double jump no longer resets when wall climbing
just in case you dont believe me… this is directly from overwatch.

you’ll never have to choose between wall climb and jump because if you perform what my second original statement was, he always gets the second jump after wall climbing, as long as hes holding down space…
Yes, exactly what all the people here have told you. Because you haven’t used your second jump yet. It’s not a bug that you don’t get the 2nd jump if you don’t hold down space. It’s using your 2nd jump to latch you to the wall instead of your first.
wall climb is not considered a second jump to latch. If it is, by your theory… Then genji should never be able to jump off the wall, for consistency, since it wouldve been consumed. In this case, it would be considered a bug. No?
I don’t really need one. If it’s a bug fine, it’s not really relevant to the ultimate point.
No. You’re not understanding. The wall climb is not what consumes the jump. You press space to jump once. You release space. You press and hold it again with the intent of wall climbing, but the game treats it as an attempt to jump, you just happen to be pushing on the wall already so it just immediately starts the wall climb, burning up your jump before it does anything.
It’s not a bug. It’s how his passive works because they’re both on the same key. Every time you press space, it will attempt to use a jump first (and obviously if you’re out it won’t work), and then if you continue holding it while against a wall, you will wall climb.
