Weps And Parachuting

[thesingh5716]

will you be able to use parachuting? i mean you have a plane and gangs of people parachute out onto the war zone??

 

though it would be cool to see it happen

 

will every plane be supplied with a parachute like in the airport (or in certain missions) and/or will you be able to collect it?

 

i wonder if its possible to have more than 1 or 2 people in the aircraft.... is it????? the only one i remember is the mission with the bike entering plane one, but that was controlled by a computer, more like a planned path thing u know?

 

i also hope all the weapons are availalbe... even snipers and heat seaking would be nice i hear they do much damage will it be same damage as in single player or will it be reduced ??

 

i do prefer weapon damage not being changed

parachuting with a bunch of other people would be HOT, like in that mission where you jump out with a bunch of people. If they could get that plane in I would bust a nut

[njr1489]

I guess the team just has to sync it, and its good. The plane you were talking about sikstyle was the AT 400. Nothing is stopping them from putting it in.

Would be great...

 

parachutes should appear on the hangar, dont u think??

 

hope they can do the "many ppl on plane patch".. lol

 

I think it would be cool with snippers... but should be a limit... else it will be no game.... only campers on roofs.... max 2 snippers per gang.. so they can use'em strategicly

yeeeeah! that would open up so much more too, like jumping out of planes mid-air into another plane. not that it would be easy, but that's the kinda stunt stuff I found most fun in the gta games, and when you throw in multi-player teamwork, wow is all I gotta say. this game is gonna make me fat.

[greddy5643]

The plane in that mission is the andromada, the AT-400 has only 2 engines and you cannot lift or drop the back, the andromada has 4 engines and there is a way to program it to where the back does open and close, but you cannot get in, until there is a collision file editor.

 

I'm sure they will allow multiple people parachuting at a time, but you would have to find enough parachutes for everyone.

[kevuwk]

they will be able to pick up the same parachute surely

[Sobeit]

well for one.

 

if animations are synced you should see everything as planned while parachuting except (in theroy) the parachute itself..

 

(maybe its part of the parachute shooting animation? iuno.. lol)

[thesingh5716]

so is every wep going to be on sa-mp?? i was playing around in satchel charges and found it attached to people and cars and thought it would be usefull when stalking ur enemy...

[NTK]

Here are some ways to get multiple people parachuting:

 

1:Winghiking: people try to stay on the wings while the pilot keeps the thing steady.

 

2: Andromada Supplies: The pilot will lower the andromada's back and people try to stay on it.

 

3: Co-pilot: same 2 player airplanes.

 

4:Buildings: basejumping at some fine points.

 

5:Warping as a start position: When starting you should be able to choose Paratrooper and get a gun and a parachute, and be falling from a great height to assassinate people.

[thesingh5716]

yes hopefully they do this before i detonate the satchel charges on the plane!

 

so you can actually fit a few people in andromeda...i thgouth u would have to mod it

[NTK]

not in the andromada on the lowerable ramp of the andromada..

Unfortunately, no.

The 'plane interior' in both of the shapes and missions it appears in (Stowaway and A Home in the Hills) is fake. It isn't really a plane, just the interior. It is not moving AT ALL, and the interior is actually a little wider than the plane itself. On Stowaway, continously check your map and you will see you arent moving. In A Home in the Hills it's obvious that you aint moving and the interior disappears as soon as you jump.

 

So as mentioned, the only way would be a coll edit to allow you to get into the inside of the plane.

 

Also, making an openable/closed ramp for the AT as well is quite easy by the SCM. It wont be as smooth as in the Andro but it's doable.

[Flieboy101]

Dudes this would totally rock i could just imagine a load of people just dropping in on a gang war, maybe u could even have other planes on board?

[Brad]

so in a server will the whole of SanAndreas be accesable?

[Flieboy101]

isnt the inside of the planes just an interior and not actuali the plane so some person with loads of time on their hands could make a map mod where they can just walk through a door they modded to be there and be inside the plane and jump out?

[AlphaCueUp]

i think parachuting would be good, if it were a fixewd interior, over a certain location, abiove enemy gounds, two or maybe three paratroopers per team/gang....perhaps if the parachuts could fall slightly quicker, as a parachute gliding slowly is quite noticable, and a helpless target....

 

im not sure, but it might also be cool if bullets could damage the parachute, making it fall quicker, or with less contol

[Flieboy101]

If it was a fixed interior though someone who mods could make himself an area in area 51 and just walk through it and straigh into the air

[AlphaCueUp]

good idea, perhaps re-assign one of those yellow markers to that jump spot in the air

[Flieboy101]

What i mean is that there could be a marker or something in area 51 only he can see and he walks through and he could be in one of the plane interiors and jump out.

Not to blow your bubble, but all the ideas under this post are awful and 99% wont be made. Static interiors would suck. What we need is a good COL edit for aircraft.

Look for the "Chinook" heli mod to see what I mean

[Flieboy101]

thats very true bigun static interiors would suck, but if we are gonna make the planes so a lot of people can jump out would we also be able to put bikes on and stuff because theyre could be a part where you can parachute down but be oon a bike.

in it

[Flieboy101]

Putting that thing in it would be a bit stupid i would prefer to have new planes or the large planes we hav 2 hav an inside area and we can just walk or drive in and put stuff in, btw im writing a sort of vehicle mod where u drive a car into it if you are very high up and want to get sumwhere quickly by going down and it shuts and goes down and you can just choose when to drive you car out in mid air or maybe give the vehicle some kind of parachute if that would help.

that mod is so cool that would be sweet if it was apart of sa-mp v1.0 when it comes out

[AlphaCueUp]

Well this seems to be getting a bit into the whole topic of wheather or not SA-MP will support mods, if it can, then it would be soley upon the discretion of the server admin wheather it would go either way.

 

I personally like the idea of that huge plane that carries vehicles, simply because it offers alot of possibilities, think about it, a deck of 6 cars, filled with four people a-piece, flying on one plane.

 

Now picture a sniper on another one, taking out the pilot of the first one, assuming of course it is possible to kill someone while in a flying vehicle (I dont see why not, as it is possible in ground vehicles). Even the ability to drive from one plane's platform onto another, or even taking out the gas-tank of one of the vehicles being transported. That would be a lot of kills for a skilled sniper.

 

The idea of having brawls on the back of these things while realy high in the air also sounds like fun, trying to knock an opponant off the edge.

 

Now if this vehicle could hover in one place, then we have the perfect air vehicle, for transoporting up to 24 people (25 including pilot) to virtually anywhere.

[Flieboy101]

Or we could just have a reli big one of them which we can drive off while parachuting in a car?

not that that isn't practical right now, so the aircraft carrier is good, and you can parachute from it, and u can transport people(i transported my homies)

[michael-z]

humm this inspired me with a new game every one jumps out of the plane with parashutes and 1 guy trys to snipe them down and they can shoot back that would be awsome lol

[Flieboy101]

If we did have the crazy car transporter we should have a really huge one thats also up in the air and is a base for one of the teams.
