Marmolade Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 This just aroused my attention; parachuting. Was there any confirmations that there would be no parachuting whatsoever or is it still a possibility? Really, it'd stink if we couldn't parachute in a game where you can hang onto the legs of helicopters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WellsMcK Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 Usually people say they were forced to double post because they can't quote in a post that they already posted. I know you can quote people, just don't use quoting as an example to double post. (I know you haven't but a lot of people do use it) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TuRu Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 I've never heard of parachuting being denied. I actually thin it is possible, this is why: This a journalist that finished the game talking : "...there are some elements of gameplay that make going up on the roofs worthwhile." link http://www.gamesradar.com/f/hes-finished-g...040914415107076 Could be something jumping with a parachute but could be something else though...

xheartshapebox Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 I think/hope parachutes are in. I haven't read anything confirming thst they are out and it makes sense having them to avoid death when falling (from a chopper) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scubakid Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 If they removed parachutes to add realism, that's plainly ridiculous. What's more unrelaistic, jumping off of a building without a parachute, or jumping off a building with one? There's no reason for parachutes not to be in this game, and I'm pretty sure it hasn't been CONFIRMED that they aren't in the game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think calling a parachute a 'fantasy vehicle/item' is too much. Yes a jetpack, but since parachutes are genuinely real, and relatively easy to get your hands on, I don't see why they've been removed. It's going to be wierd going from a game where you can jump out a helicopter and use a parachute to a land safely to a gme where it result in simply falling and dying. It was, in my opinion, lots of fun to parachute, and skydive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DroppedHonda Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 Hey i was reading this review on ign and take a look at what this guy seas Why run when you can drive? Why drive when you can take a helicopter? Why arrive at your destination by landing when you could bail out from high above the city and watch the crunching impact? who knows he might mean just watching your body splatter after the chopper hits idk. its on this page if you for some reason don't believe me http://uk.xbox360.ign.com/articles/865/865944p4.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DDR Midian Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 Just cause there's no parachute item doesn't necessarily mean there couldn't be a one-off mission in which you parachute off of/out of something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
