Parachute help please

[Underhook]

I have just tried "Operation silent spade" I have to jump off the cliff a parachute into the base. Well ....... my chute opens and then i smack into the rocks on the cliff face below me. What am I doing wrong? How do people control the chute.

u run pressing W, and u keep pressing W when falling. thats why u fail

when the parachute animation starts, hold the opposite key

saying opposite key cus i use gamepad. i run moving forward the stick. when i know it will do the parachute animation, i press back

How to do this properly? I fear that in ghost mode this might lead to a lot of stress...
Keyboard and mouse here mainly. Using xbox pad just to immerse more while drone controlling car driving...

Yes that worked, "S" for slow down keeps you in the air

My problem now is I cant kill all the unidad choppers whilst flying. My Ai is useless

Do jump when tactical air sensing u have for sure tells you the air is good to jump.

Good to know.

How tall must be the cliff in order to do this and not die? At least 90 meters also in diagonal as the movement of fall will be forward going or ...?

U dont fight them, u can trick that part. here an example

also, u can wait in last "checkpoint", after around 1 minut, the hunted/alerted status will over and u can keep going, no need for turn back

the best u can do is try in every cliff. is the best way to learn haha. just remember, when u are about to jump, hold S

I have found a definitive solution in using the PAD (joypad i have) which by holding the A button or x with xbox or ps will allow if u are sprinting from the edge to auto go base jumping mode on.

Otherwise with keyboard u need to get used to it. Just spam "space space space" multiple times.

The video that sorted this out is one of those tutorials u find online...

To me it has been very helpful.

I think the parachute is pretty poorly designed to a point where it becomes useless. When the guy jumps off a cliff, for some reason he has to go into a dive position for a second or so during which time he will need at least 100 meters before leasurly stretching out for the parachute. don't know how many times I have jumpted off cliffs only to dive straight into the rocks. If this is what the game designers think is realistic or cool, they have never jumped using a parachute. It is just ridiculous and removes all fun of using it.

There is a way, I don't play it much in last years but I shall finish the hardcore campaign I started (the only one), and I remember it was so clear that I had no fear doing it in permadeath mode...
There is even videos showing it.
It's about holding a button and releasing it with another click after it... something like that.

I hold (spacebar) about 1 step before I expect to jump off, releasing the (w) key and (spacebar) once the animation begins. You can hold the (s) key to slow your decent once the jumping animation starts if you think you might go splat. I've never had a problem with base jumping doing it this way as long there is enough elevation. I don't have any weapons drawn when I jump and I do it at the jog speed (not sprint) but I'm not sure if those things matter or not.
