Pariah_ 4 Posted March 3, 2013 (edited) Hey all, here is a little somethin' I did yesterday. Just out lootin' & 'splorin' a long way from camp... and leave myself without a way back, other than walking... when I'm operating solo, I tend to get the dumb, I didn't realize something like this would happen (even though its happened before with land vehicles). Keep in mind, I'm a bit of a noob on this game too. Its funny now looking back, but at the time, I was a bit irritated. :Dhttp://youtu.be/chdId471NM8 Edited March 3, 2013 by Pariah_ 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dackspuds 15 Posted March 3, 2013 Yeah, I think that that should be in the game, but only on choppers with wheels, because you don't use a parking brake very easily on a helicopter with skids... Actually, how about this: on every vehicle, give the option to "Park Vehicle", (only usable on a gentle slope so you cant park it in air or on the side of a building to prevent exploitation) and then it won't move along the ground unless it gets destroyed or you "Unpark Vehicle"? Seems like a useful addition, considering that most of Cherno isn't flat. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pr3llox 63 Posted March 3, 2013 (edited) actually in the standalone if they are using the heavy helicopters that is, you have the option to use brakes on the helicopter if it has wheels... use them all the time in "Take on Helicopters" among other things you have to use in those choppers..Good thing we cleared that up!
