On the next update, can the fall height be increased dramatically because there were moment where i could safely make a jump but i died. (such a adrenaline rush killer :cussing: )

IE: There was a moment in muttrah map, where i was in second floor of a building with a HAT kit and my squad were on the ground floor making a FOB. But then suddenly an MEC squad attacked and killed my whole squad and destroyed the FOB. Because i had a HAT kit, i knew i couldn't engage due to my kit limitation, so i tried to hide in the building(m16 with no iron sights and grenade + undermanned). But then when i was looking outside a window, on the stairs, i saw an enemy and so did he and he opened fire narrowly missing me and hitting the window edges. Then i tried to move up by going to the stairs, but at the same time the enemy came up and we BOTH sprayed at point blank and we BOTH somehow managed to miss each other. When the enemy and I moved behind the stairs for cover, I legged it up to the roof and with the Adrenaline rushing, I tried to jump to another house (across an narrow alleyway) just 1 floor lower because visualized that i would get across safety (based on my experiences). But when i jumped across, i landed safety on the ledge, but it said I died with the white bold words "DEAD" across my screen even though I clearly landed on the ledge (which isn't even a whole floor). I was a bit peed and it was just such a adrenaline killer.... sigh. :cussing: :cussing: :cussing: :cussing: :cussing: :cussing: :sad: :sad: :sad: :sad: :sad: :sad: :sad:

So, my question is
1. Can the fall height be increased without increasing stamina (to stop bunny hoppers)???
2. If not why not increase fall height of the empty/civilian kit (the Right g click kit) because there is less weight??? - by also increasing Fall height and stamina of empty kit (it would make retreating a viable option, which not commonly known/used by people ingame)
3. Also shouldn't the empty kit have a knife for BLUFOR side because im sure you would atleast take your knife?? :!:
4. Also, can u increase the drop height when the heli hovers over a non-plain ground so there "isnt a squad/sniper :d rillserg that moans about bleeding or the heli crashing due to unstable ground :35_rip: "
:hissyfit: :hissyfit: :hissyfit: :hissyfit: :hissyfit:
PS for forum moderators- I searched for Fall height and found nothing associated 8-)

you should have survived that, you must've been shot, you would have at most been wounded making that jump. I make jumps like that all the time, and at full health its rare that I even start bleeding.

I suppose your source to support your realism claims was the 'Bourne Ultimatum'?

It just might be the very rare "dead dead" screen that pops out of the blue. The only two times it ever happened to me I was by a container in a tight alleyway or simply heading to an insurgent car in Ramiel just outside a compound's gate.

I'm pretty sure I wasn't shot on both times as they were both impossible scenarios. I tried to recreate the same exact steps but nothing happened. Just weird stuff I guess...

It is quite easy to make a 1.5-2m jump with a good sprinting start.

This has been suggested, brought up, discussed, pissed and whined over so many times its difficult to count. Putting so many different rage icons in your post hardly helps.
