R*, fix the rappeling (Merryweather helicopter)

10/10 worth the necro

As you know, there is a rappeling function in the merryweather heli where you can drop a rope, and rappel down on it, BUT the problem is that there are barely any places where this is possible, so how about this? :

 

- You can rappel down at every location, but there is a risk that you might fall off.

 

-You can rappel down even when another players controlling a helicopter.

 

 

This is part of a larger issue of the merryweather chooper being limited in what you can order it to do, I would like to be able to tell him to go up or down in addition to where to go, I would like for me to be able to tell him to land, to pick up my friends and continue on.

 

if we had this kind of control, this issue would be fixed by default.

 

I would ALSO like to have the ability to repel from ANY helicopter because they all use the same flight model, so trying to make it so only one type or another can use it would be more difficult then just enabling it for choppers. making it more likely to actually have to fixed. less effort on R*'s part.

U can repel anywhere u just have to wait till u get to ur destination and if the option isn't there go to the map and choose a new spot. Even if it's only a few feet away. Most time it will let u do it at that location. The most times I've ever had to do it was 3 and then the option came up.

 

I've never tried it with 2 people but I will next time I'm on. The main thing is being patient and trying again.

 

I've done it hella times and yes it is cool to show off to friends.

You should be allowed to rappel from any helicopter when the pilot or player flying reaches a certain height. Most people dont know about this option because its not always availible for use

LOL at the comments people don't really play this game to the fullest, there is so much to it

They should just make this available for the maverick as a side perk to that chopper or even the annihilator (due to being able to have 4 in the back instead of just 2)

 

I'm kinda mad I know this now because this is so cool but so worthless at the moment and I doubt R* will improve on it. If you could rappel with friends anywhere as long as you had proper height, it'd be perfect.

 

TBH, all they should do is make it so it displays your altitude as a number format in the GUI and tell people that you can be at a Max Altitude of X and people will rappel down safely, else they will just fall off when they reach the bottom of the rope, and given the physics in this game hitting anything while going down would make sense.

R* Logic

If the Swift helicopter is actually released, it should be obligatory to rappel down.

 

Rainbow Six Vegas 1&2 had a pretty similar heli.

Wow, OP has "Rappel" in the title, and mongoloids are still using "repel".

 

You should be embarrassed.

I've fast roped onto the ground before when I've been hunting special crate drops. It's available in places besides buildings.

We have a pinned wishlist thread for a reason.
