Jumping

I dl'd BF2 assault mod yesterday and played it for a while. Now while it was nowhere near as realistic overall as PR, there were a few things in there that definately WERE more realistic than in PR.
a couple of the things I really noticed were
MUCH lower jump. I was at a construction zone trying to jump a gap, and he more or less leapt in the direction, and didn't jump 5 feet in the air. It reminded me a lot of how I jump IRL, crossing streams and such. You go more forward than you do up, and its something I would really appreciate in PR.
no chat spam at all. TBH, I did not see any problem with this. I actually liked being able to see the left hand part of my screen, when all the bots were goin "affirmative. yes sir. i need a medic!" Even playing as MEC I could somewhat understand what "Kunkula!" meant, plus there were icons on your minimap, so for example if you really needed a medic, it wasn't hard to find out where one was, or who you had to heal.
It should be like this in PR. Im sure people can learn just a little (like, a few words) of arabic and chinese (maybe russian too) to get a long, and if they REALLY have trouble with it, just use the english VO only in the options.
Devs, I love you but i would love you to death if you implemented these changes. It would bring everyone closer to the battlefield.

Removing spam...always nice. The jumping sounds really cool too, I dont like the super jump we have now. What it does do is take the place of "Climbing" though...I think sometimes this is really needed but I'm not sure. There would be no way to get in a tank without the high jump

Hasn't that been there since vBF2? It still is in for PR.

The jump height is fine, and is needed as there is no way to climb in the Battlefield 2 engine.

Lol learning Russian wouldnt help coz when your spotting infantry on Mestia you shout "I see enemy helicopter!" in russian. So i would't get supprised that you say that you like it from behind when your spotting something while playing MEC or PLA...

Yeah, if you played SF, you'd know, that "vertaljot" stands for helicopter, not infantry...

yeah...what i meant is take out the generic comrose chat from the chat box.
ppl can still type-it doesn't happen often so its not really spam.
and playing bf2 with a normal jump height is no problem at all.
I played it, i know what i'm talking about. maybe the devs could try this out, try stuff like making an invisible ladder in places?

as someone said we don't have a climb functionality
and we made it two jumps before you're out of stamina
so thats all good I think
unless we somehow implement two jumping heights, one to model climbing

maybe...shift+jump=high jump for climbing, takes away lots of stamina
reg. jump= low, like jumping jacks, not too much stamina removed.
