Suggestion for fastrope style?
Don't know if it has been thought of, but to implement a fastrope system, could the system used to drop supply crates being used? Crates have to be dropped at a certain speed and height, so could this work for infantry as well? It might not look amazing, but it could certainly get the legendary fastropes into the game. What does everyone think?

this suggestion has been going on since the dawn of PR
i think it would be better to have a parachute for the crate. (if needed)

Re: Suggestion for fastrope style?
We god of PR decided fast ropes are not realistic and with out any proof have NEVER been used in real combat.
I dont think your idea will work, code doesn't exactly work that way. Crate have a gravity applied to them, and I'm sure this gravity cant not be dynamically adjusted. But good for you to think out side of the box

Re: Suggestion for fastrope style?
For starters, you should wait til you have the required post count to post suggestions in the actual suggestion thread
Second fastropes have been asked for a million times and are always shot down, EVEN if they were to work they would most likely not be included anyway.

Re: Suggestion for fastrope style?
well, crates only come out at a slow speed cuz they don't have real earth gravity modifiers, so if we used this infantry would be long jumping all the time
