    Wingsuit & Parachute Goodies




    Just wanting to say that colored Smoke could be a lot of fun in Far Cry 5's COOP and Multiplayer when using the wingsuit, not only is it a good way to show off to other players (especially if it's something you can unlock in game) but it is an excellent way to show your coop partner or Team your position.

    So Far Cry 4 actually has smoke which might work for this kind of thing so it shouldn't really be that difficult for them to modify it. (Image by Fino)




    Just Cause has a light on the Wingsuit, that could be fun as the setting turns darker in Far Cry and again is good for a team member or coop partner to see your location as you fly past waving at them

    Just Cause also had some DLC where you had flame wings when using the wingsuit - maybe fun to grant things like that in FC5 - also look at the parachute, although this doesn't get seen that often there is also the option to create numerous different parachutes which could visually look stunning.



    You could even have a round parachute to unlock in game.



    I would even like to see this ported over from STEEP



    I would even like the option to get hold of different wingsuit designs / skins

    Yes, it has been spoiled by Dan Hay in an interview.

    Montana is perfect - Wingsuit mentioned HERE

    At about the 1:25 mark, the interviewer asks if the wingsuit is back for 5. “I don’t honestly know if I’m allowed to talk about the wingsuit…you know what, **** it, yes, it’s back”, Hay says, in a rare and wonderful unchecked moment. You’ll be paying homage to a 1960s-70s stuntman that exists in the game world when you use it, apparently, and unlocks will be based around his personality.

    Montana is a western state defined by its diverse terrain ranging from the Rocky Mountains to the Great Plains. Its wide-open spaces include Glacier National Park, a vast wilderness preserve that passes into Canada. The park’s many snow-capped peaks, lakes and alpine hiking trails are showcased along its famed Going-to-the-Sun Road, stretching 50 miles.

    That second pic is EPIC.

    Some areas of Montana are flat, as compared to the Himalayas, but there's still mountains along the Western region. I would hope there was a parachute for the plane we'll get to use...

    You have a horn now when driving, we had it before so good to see that return.
    I think it was right trigger for forward and left for reverse - I actually hated that and preferred the analogue stick so I think / hope we can switch between either configuration as I like the one as default in FC4.

    I liked having the L - lights switch (for the PC). Not much of a fan using headlights in enemy country...the less the BGs can see of me, the better.
