We've spent 9 pages discussiong this - and the conensus was you can't bail in space on most maps.

didnt we end this months agow?

but anyway: set it so that the last 25% of the verhicle people inside get hurt to, so that if they bail they get a -2 punish for suicide and the person that shot them gets a kill assist. i'm happy with that

I, for one, hope there won't be unlocks in the first place, but that's maybe just me.

I'm all for losing points when you bail out or when your vehicle is destroyed. It worked just swell in the Project Reality mod.

Points don't matter, but they are important. To me unlocks are usually better, as is the rank. Rank is important to me simply because of the commander preference.

Why not allow bailing but every time you bail, you lose one point. That way the only time bailing is worth your time is if you are good enough to rack up points before you need to bail. Also, my favorite thing to do is to put C4 all over the jet and that way, when I run out of ammo and the airport is captured, or if i'm about to die, I will bail but aim it to blow up either the Essex spawn point if you're Japaneese or on the airport if you're American. (I usually play sixty-four player maps and most people scramble all over the airport)

not a bad idea zanth! We have similiar ideas too, but as Bandu mentioned, nothing's set in stone yet.

Here is what I think about the bailing. NOOBS

My idea...

-----------------------------------------

1. There is a special PICK-UP kit near the aircraft for pilots. You will get a pistol, knife, and grenades. The special thing about this pack is the jet ejector. It's a small jet pack like thing on his back, but much weaker power. What it does, is when you bail out of a plane, or just fall from a cliff, it slows you down when you fall. So when you hit the ground, you don't get hurt.

2. If you bail out of a plane, and end up hitting the ground and dieing, you get -2 from your points.

3. No other packs besides the pilot pack has the jet ejector. So if anyone bails with no pilot pack, they die.

4. Pilots can only get in aircraft. (no tanks, ships, etc.)

----------------------------------------

Now, that wont stop noob bailing at first. But if you're just a pilot with the pilot pack and bail over a base, it's hard to survive. No armor (armour) doesn't help. In the end, the bailed pilot also has little to gain also because they can only get in aircraft.

Nothin is set in stone. We are either having no bailing or the ability to bail but have no parachute or any other anti gravity devise , so if you bail you will die anyway ...unless your like 3m off the ground.

We will listen to the community as a whole....however , not individuals.
