1) Fastropes are "now" in PR, this having been doable since the Merlin first entered PR. 2) To use them you have to be on the GB team 3) You have to be on a map with a Merlin 4) You have to hover at 10m or so for around 20 seconds 5) Your passengers must either be SpecOps or be using stolen kits with the rope 6) No-one else can use them because they fall out of the chopper very quickly I'm sorry mate but to my mind if you've got hilly terrain, you either let them drop from 5m up and chuck a crate out after them to get medpacks from (or, given that a full squad should have a medic in, you let them heal themselves), or you get bloody low and touch down just very briefly. Works just fine - and THAT'S realistic too. Hell, if I know a LZ is going to be rugged I warn the passengers over TS/VOIP or Team Chat that they've got to bail from low altitude because I won't be touching down! It's a great bit of video, yes. It looks pretty good, yes. It is going to alter gameplay in PR or become something you see every day on a server? No way! | |

Actually, depending on the pilot and person with the rope, a whole squad could use it.
I'm not sure how often it would be used IRL, actually, it seems very dangerous and I would rather walk than risk it. |

How has it been around for years? Merlin just came out 1.5 years ago or so. And what map are you guys using in that. Looks great to train on. | |

Training mini mod i think it's called.
Also I swear anything which jonny remotely endorses gets slated to shit by R-somethings or maybe that's just me. |

(Here it is) YouTube - Rising Conflicts Video release #2 Hold at about 1:55 to see. You can do this with other choppers besides the merlin I believe, all you need to do is be able to walk around the inside, and throw a grappling hook out. | |
