If there’ll be parachutes in BF1, cool! However, I loved BC1 and it didn’t have them, so I’m fine either way.
im 50 50 on this yes it would be good to bail out but then would we get bail outs every time you got a few nicks,i would prefer to stay with my plane until it went down.i think to bail with a parachute is the easy way out.
Parachutes in fighters aren’t true to the era, I think a pilot should have to try to crash land his plain, or die.
Well that Shovel German had crutches, so… 
Parachutes only for the pilot class that’s required to fly aircraft. I don’t want to see basic infantry parachuting off a second story building.
Personally I think you should only get a parachute if you are a pilot class or spawn in a zeppelin
No if you want to leave the plane you should have to commit suicide and the player who dealt the most damage should get credit for the kill. Also I hope you don’t get your kit if you leave a plane just a pistol. Don’t want vehicles to keep being wasted because someone wants to use it as a taxi.
Well, in the end, I don’t really mind pilots getting parachutes just so they aren’t fully ‘tied’ to a vehicle. Leaving them with just a pistol after bailing out should be enough…
I would just assume that everyone gets a parachute… cops and robbers don’t have parachutes, yet look at hardline
Seeing as you know a lot about this game, I’m going to assume this is confirmation that everyone has access to a parachute.
Nope, I actually don’t know the answer to this one. I am just going off the fact that if hardline has them, all of them have them
Dang.
Wouldn’t make sense considering they were issued till after the war…
Yet, look at Vietnam. If I remember correctly infantry didn’t have them.
no parachutes
I vote for only the pilot class having them to bail out of their aircraft.
This is the early 1900s so it’s not like we’re going to be jumping out of skyscrapers, therefore the average soldier shouldn’t really need them. If you’re in a 3 story building just run down the damn stairs.
But cops don’t have parachutes, and they have them in Hardline
Also, they already stated they are taking some creative liberties in the name of fun and balance. I fully expect parachutes
THIS! I completely agree. So ridicules seeing infantry jumping off small building with parachutes. Please stop it, it hurts my brain.
If they do then it’s another aspect of the game ruined. How different would the fighting be if you couldn’t jump out of buildings? I’m just adding up the nuggets we’ve been getting and it’s not sounding good.
What’s the number one thing people in media were saying about the reveal? Wow…WW1. That’s awesome. No ones done it before. They actually thought it would be fairly authentic to WW1. Forms hat it seems the joke will be on them.
Now all I’m seeing is a reskinned BF4 and whining and complaining about optics, auto weapons, slow tanks, parachutes …all things 12 year old want.
If Dice was smart a mass questionaire would be sent to the 12 year olds. Ask what they want in the next game…and promptly do the opposite.
Be the best game Dice ever made.
