Anyone else think parachute missions are crap and waste of there "

[twopair2s3s]

I mean 1st time u see it obviously you think its awesome...then you do it. SO STUPID, and there is like 20 of them. lol maybe if they did a target landing with some obstacles or something i dont wanna go 2 mph thru targets so boring, this game in general is getting pretty redundant

[Bakb0ne]

Get some friends..

how is that even a logical answer to my question?

ok well honestly this sounds like you SUCK SO MUCH at this game that you can not even complete a parachute mission. they are fun, period. try out different locations and different times. obstacles? sorry i wont go the extra mile to look up what the name is so i can tell you now, but there is one quick jump down between buildings : sharp cut to the left making sure to not clip the corner of the roof and then gun it back to the right to land in the small park type of area. pretty fun.

 

and yes, go get some friends.

Parachuting with a big group is totally fun.

 

They have some with very tight obstacles you need to get around (dam into a valley, buildings, ect.).

And it TOTALLY sounds like you have yet to do the Terminal Velocity "parachute" jump because it's f*cking rad.

 

Another thing to do with the group is to agree that everyone should try to free fall through the targets instead of opening shute right away. I usually free fall the first one or two anyway.

I love them... great views. And some of them are challenging. I found one where you don't even open your chute until just before you land. Thrilling.

I love the parachuting missions, brings memories back of pilotwings. Now we need moon boots!

Yeah I have Just Cause 2 flashbacks

The first parachute mission I did was pipeline and that was a little fun. Then I found others and how challenging they can be. Now I love them.

I will have to try that. I always pop the chute early and dive bomb through all the targets.

[twopair2s3s]

I agree, if people freefell threw the checkpoints much more fun, floating at 2 mph isnt fun, ya great views....of a fake world.....dont forget people i know sometimes you do...ill show ya a great view, walk up your basement stairs past your mom doing yoga and out the window....SUN! GRASS!! HUMANS!! sh*ts crazy isn't it?

[Muse182]

I'd love a mini game where we all fall from the highest point possible and the last one to open their parachute and survives wins.

[twopair2s3s]

that would be cool mini-game, but no, they have arm wrestling...could be dumbest addition in any game ever played lemme break my controller stick to get absolutely nothing

[theadmiral]

Yeah they are total crap IMO did it twice or so and you don't even get a payout and it's nearly impossible to not crash into other people.

[wallpaper42]

They're cool with me.

[Bakb0ne]

Simple, the more people you play with. The more fun you have.

 

Parachuting is a great laugh when you have 4 or more people playing.

 

So, simple put, get some friends.

[Crookid]

It's really fun with lots of friends.

 

However, I wish there were races where you had to race from point A to point C... At point B you have to bail from your car off a mountain and parachute to a target.

 

That would he epic. I saw something similar on the online ad, so maybe it is in? Not sure.

[Durden]

I hear about people freefalling through the hoops...

 

HOW?

 

Right stick controls the camera.

Left stick up makes you descend faster

Left stick down makes you descend slower

Left stick sideways turns your character

 

No f*cking clue how people can control their freefalling to actually fly to the hoops. They are too far away to reach without opening your chute.

[Bakb0ne]

You can usualy free fall the first hoop, after that it's all chute, unless someone has a video to say otherwise.
