Re: Can you zip line from a helo

you cant grapple from a chopper unless you are stood on top, same reason as to why you cant physically jump in it without 'attaching' yourself to the chopper. something to do with the vehicle meshes or summat

There really needs to be a mod in which you can rope out of blackhawks.

Re: Can you zip line from a helo

Why would you need to when you can just fly to the location and jump out?

Re: Can you zip line from a helo

why? cuz in real battle you wouldn't just fly above and jump out then parachute, or even fly in land and take off again lol. they would hover and all grapple out then the heli would detach the grapples and take off. ^.^

Re: Can you zip line from a helo

No because the Xip line has to have a base somewhere where it shoots from and A chopper does not have anywhere to hold onto the thing that the rope is attached to. You might be able to zip line through a helo though.

Re: Can you zip line from a helo

Not possible with the engine (to my knowledge, although I think one mod team has managed to get a very rudimentary system in place) and, not needed.

The Battlefield engine does not model helicopter rotors as physical objects, meaning they can pass through other objects, like buildings. In real life, the purpose of fast-roping is to insert ground troops in areas where the helicopter cannot land, ie; on a street between buildings. Since rotors aren't modelled as physical objects, the helicopter can simply land and drop off it's troops.
