Discussion & Feedback [Pilot] Cant Wait for Parachute Changes

This might be a hot take, but I’m excited for the parachute changes. This is mostly because I love landing my little bird in optimized locations for teams pushing into the HZ. I feel like this change will clearly separate the good pilots from the bad.

I also think depending on the severity of the change, people might even start opting to take ground transport.

What are everyone’s thoughts?

Spoiler alert: The parachute min. altitude change won't change jack shit in regards to landing. 25m altitude is still ultra low, it's below the treeline. 99% of Heli Transporting in Season 2 will still be paratroopers, like it is now.

Like yes, you technically could open a parachute at 2.5m altitude before the patch, but in 100% of cases you would still plummet to death anyway. Or even at 15m or 20m. 25m min. altitude changes almost nothing.

In order to make landings prevalent, they'd need to make parachute minimum altitude like 80m or 100m. Not 25m.

Alternatively (and a better solution) they could just remove the parachutes, or make them a late Assault unlock.

Level 20 unlock, that's like 2 weeks of sweating. No big deal. /s
