Re: Fast rope addon
I deffinatly think ill be using this in my BHD mission:P. This will add so much to Evo and more.
Just imagine. Rope in at the center of Cayo, anbd fight your way out. Talk about intense. Currently most of the time its shoot form outside in. Now it will be strict Urban Conbat, awsome!

Re: Fast rope addon
Ooo yeah! Very nice indeed. Only things missing now are black wetsuit/diver skins (complete with fins and scuba gear) and an adjustment and an animation or two for jumping off a helo hovering above water...

Re: Fast rope addon
Its a good addition to the game, but I cant think of too many situations where fast roping will be a better option than landing or hovering at jump out altitudes.
Other than forest insertion and narrow city streets, a good pilot can land his chopper just about anywhere.
The long hover required for fast roping means it wont be a plausible evo insertion method for any city with active AI. Landing is a must if you don't want to take fire from AI. Maybe it'll be easier to use ropes to get guys on roofs in a BH. The Cayo insert, for example, won't work unless you get in and land very quickly. Hovering above roof tops means taking lots of fire, infy, UAZ, and armor.
Anywho, not to be debby downer, its cool and I like -- but its only adding a limited amount of tactical flexibility, best used for forests in my opinion.|TG|Switch

Bullseye. Mission maker will have to focus on that. Originally Posted by Switch

It's all up to the mission makers!|TG-69th|Kevlar

Re: Fast rope addon
Tactical shmacktical. That look likes a ton of fun!!! and if a mission can actually use it tactically (like insertion into a dense forest) then all the better!
Is this something that needs to be installed client side? server side? or both?Sleepdoc
My typos are legendary. I choose not to correct them as a form of unique signature
(and because forum spell checkers are a hassle) : )
I actually spell just fine. But my typing skills are the pits.
