parachute spawns in Deathmatch ?

[JimDirt]

is there a way to have parachute spawns in Deathmatch or TDM (or any map type for that matter), in BHD? everytime i have tried the player just falls and dies ,i have set the hight as far up as 500 (you spawn way up in the clouds)and u just fall and die , i know it works in LW and TFD at about 150 +,but for the life of me i cant make it work in BHD,or is there something they did in the Med that prevents chute spawns in BHD ? im stumped!

no paras in BHD m8

if ppl land in water they will be ok

That just seems dumb to me ,why would they take it out of the game configuration, i would think that since they were trying to make a more realistic game ,that chute spawns would be a givin, since they dont have cargo planes that you can be in and jump out from there , do they think that all armed forces in every battle fastrope from a helo?, you would think that they would leave something like a chute spawn in the game ,like all the other DF series,i cant think of any war or combat mission in the last 30yrs where at some point someone didnt parachute into a area to do battle, Hmmmmm! it just dont seem right to me to remove something that would enhance the game, but yet i have read posts where you can make the AI in the game spawn with a chute , so why not allow the players themselves to do the same ?, but thanks for the reply Steve!, as i was and still am baffled by this !

well it must have bin one of the things that made the reslese date get put back, and even with more time they still could not get it in.

I had a similar thread queries about parachuting (halo-ing) as Joe dirt here. Yupp. agreed. It's a let-down on not having the "DELTA" to chute. Anyway, I thought I swear I played a map which I glide down from a black hawk before in a TDM map which the host create. But referring to "J.B's" comment, maybe i was dropping from the BH & didn't die when i hit the water. I doubt still though coz' I've even played a map which I died when I hit the water too.

damn! wish there's moderators out there can fix this up. maybe we could have "band of brothers" or fallshirmjaegger mods. Anyway Joe dirt, have you tried playing BF1942 yet? Besides the rest of the DF series, that's another game which you can have 8 of your team-mates piloting, gunning & chuting behind enemy lines. Pretty cool too.

Anyway, can somebody shed me some light here on creating respawn point that involves the fast-ropeing black hawk?

I have actually seen this before and had it happen to me.It was on the UFP Holodeck 2 server.The other team claimed i was cheating but it was explaned that it was a respawn.And there was indeed a parachute.
Kyo out!

cool!!! gimme details of the map Kyosti. I knew I was playing something like that b4 but don't know how or where I could play that map again. I'd love to create that kinda map too.
