how long does the grappling hook stay deployed?

*SPAAAMMMM*

I have long been looking for a way to keep my New York Asian escort body in shape. Thank you so much.

Back on topic, I think 20 minutes is a good compromise. Doesn't stay forever but long enough to respawn and get back.

Well over one hour it stays if you dont die, then i got bored

Wouldn't knifing it to dissappear be a viable solution, if possible?

What he said. Otherwise I'm more happy with the current, then the one before (dissapears after a minute).

[Tartantyco]

The longer, the better.

[ghostfool84]

5 Minutes would be fine. Kit stays 5min, Wounded for 5min, Hook for 5min...

30 Minutes are way to long cause in real life every soldier would be able to remove that hook if you dont want it there, in Pr thats not possible without a specialist.

Sounds good (and sometimes maybe funny) too

No, no knifing, love when some enemy fool follow you up a rope, then pick it up when he reaches the roof. being able to knife it would ruin that just revert back to 1 min or maximum 5.

Stop trying to hijack the thread and turn it into a suggestion thread. Give the OP the answer or move on.


<edit> Nevermind the OP is turing it into a suggestion thread too. <edit>

bump. bump

I idled for about 45 minutes and it crashed............goddammit.

i never see how rope is disappears. in skirmish its stay in world from start to end of game)

[Web_cole]

I like that it stays for ages, and if you need to get rid of one you can have a specialist throw his somewhere, and pick up the offending rope Not a big deal at all.

[Startrekern]

I absolutely disagree with shortening the time to anything shorter than 20 minutes. Having a rope somewhere, especially in a prolonged battle, and not having to reset it every few minutes is an amazing tool to have. Or being able to throw the rope, leave your AR up there, and not having to worry about coming back to retrieve him.

so i guess not even the devs knows the answer to this or what?

Eww.. this thread has dust and cobwebs all over it =P
but no really, no answer yet?

[mosinmatt]

Ropes can be used to cause MASSIVE lag on a server. The more you throw the more lag there is.
We tested this on the Hardcore server. Since they stay so long, it causes lag. I love that the ropes do stay though, and that enemies can use your ropes too.

I think GoreZiad's fascination of the grappling hooks is reaching unhealthy proportions...

[Cossack]

Please, let the hook expire, when the dude with hook is dead and respawn, cause its improved the work on field. You don't need take it and try to trow it to get off.

Found this at INS main:


Changelog said "semi-permament" So it would be 1 hour or so.
