    Parachute Issues: Who packed this thing?!?

    Has anyone else experienced problems using the parachute...

    Mine works fine when bailing out of aircraft from a decent altitude...but lately...my base jumping from cranes and buildings is resulting in me *splatting* on the ground.

    The parachute never deploys...I've tried press and holding, press repeatedly, press once and pray a lot...nothing seems to work.

    It's not like it's vital that I figure this out...but it would save me from looking silly when I intentionally take a plunge and wind up playing human lawn dart.

    pound that '9' key!! . IIRC, if the shute touches anything is disappears. make sure you are jumping really clear of any structures.

      Wait till your gun is tucked away, then hit parachute button!

        you know whats crazy for me....i've been doing some base jumping and doing the spastic "pound 9" exercises......it doesn't deploy but I take no to VERY minimal damage, even from jumping off a crane or tall building.

          That's because you are probably opening and closing it really quickly so it still slow you down but doesn't deploy

            Just use the superman hack, and you won't need a parachute. You unlock it after 1000 drops .

            Try it.

                If your chute so much as brushes against the side of a tree or a building then it will collapse.

                      I guess I've never attempted to close my chute back up, that wouldn't make much sense.

                      PEACE

                        Yeah, I know, but I wouldn't put it past them to include that feature in the game. :)

                          Since we're on the subject of adding features, with the next patch, are they adding the TotalBF2 map pack to it, or is that just a forum rumour? :)

                          hehehe
