I've noticed a bug when jumping off buildings and out of planes. As I'm frantically 9ing it trying to open the parachute, I finally hear the sound. But I then proceed to continue my feefall only to get a suicide. Anyone else have any parachute problems? I find this extremely annoying. Also, why does it take 50,000 pushes of the 9 for the thing to open. The only thing I can do to assure a parachute staying open is to continually and frantically rape the 9 key until I'm on the ground.

only time I have had trouble is inbetween buildings before I knew better (your chute wont open inbetween buildings or if you are too close to a building)

I have no answer. I even put a sticker on my 9 key so I can find it easier.
I' HAVE found that yelling out "C'MON YOU FUCKIN P.O.S.!! WERRRRRRK!!!!!" helps a lot. Give that a try
Sober enough to know what I'm doing, drunk enough to really enjoy doing it

There is a way, in the localization file, to adjust the button so that you press it once and it will deploy the chute at first possible moment..

Cant remember right now tho

I find it better to wait for your gun to disappear beforfe hitting 9 instead of mashing it.

i have found that the best way is to wait for a second or two after you have jumped / fallen. IDK why, but when you go into "freefall" mode, (i.e. cannot shoot, screen whizzes by), and press 9 once, purposely, my chute ALWAYS opens. I think that rapidly pressing it just spams the PC and nothing happens.

My complaint is when you hit anything in the air, be it wall edge, power line, anything, your chute "undeploys", and i fall and die...GrrFace

Yeah, would be much more fun if you got caught and just hanged there ^^

I imagine that's happened to everyone at least, what? Ten times?

Look on the bright side, my friend can't get his to work at all so he has to walk down stairs or climb down ladders - pretty major handicap for a sniper as you can imagine!

LOL, didn't work for me! I found that screaming my head off afterwards doesn't help either, no idea why.

Oh that would be hilarious. Except to the guy hanging there, which knowing my luck would be me half the time.
