Towering out in chute.
« on: January 14, 2005, 11:41:46 AM »
I noticed last night I can tower out of my chute,without even opening the chute.

           I don't know if this is a bug,but I'm sure you used to have to open your chute and, reach Terra Firma before you could Tower out.

           Has this changed,or is it a bug?

It's that way in the MA but not in the CT. Or at least last month when I hung on the silk forever and found out the hard way:(

Exit while moving-chute. First time I'v looked at AH2 arena settings. Alot more than there used to be.

In MA you can exit while hanging in chute. Same for TA and SEA, not sure about CT.

In DA, you cant exit from chute, i wouldnt recommend opening it there.... you have to call for a mercy kill. :)

As for exiting without opening the chute: id like to see that changed in next patch, but thats my humble opinion. Since it can avoid death when bailing at too low alt. Its ok not to have to hang in chute till you reach ground though.
