    We're sorry to hear that, Waschroe

    Are you hovering at a low altitude and swimming down as mentioned?

    Same issue, can't get any work arounds to help

    Having the same issue. None of the work arounds are working for me (and no, I'm not going to waste even more time going back and getting video of all of them again after spending well over an hour messing around with it already). I've tried using fast, I've tried swimming from the "N", I've tried dropping in from a helicopter with the thing practically touching the water when I jump out, etc. Nothing works, I glitch and end up way away from the barrel every time. Beyond that, we shouldn't have to sit here wasting time with work arounds. Fix the issue. You've got plenty of proof that it's happening and people have posted videos of the issue. What is the problem Ubisoft? At this point, you're being incredibly successful at showing us all how incompetent you are, given that it's been almost 3 years since this glitch was first reported and still hasn't been fixed. And at this point, it's seriously making me reconsider spending the money on the upcoming game in the franchise if this is the way it's going to be with y'all. Good as the games may be overall, they aren't good enough to be wasting money on if y'all either aren't going to bother fixing things, or it's going to take years for you to fix glitches.

    This is a very annoying glitch, I have tried to use the helicopter 4 times now without success, I am sure this glitch works but it is annoying. I shouldn't have to find a glitch to get a game mechanic to work, how about a fix Unbisoft?

    I didn't even attempt to hover over, i just landed the helicopter over the barrel and it seemed to fix the glitch. Getting out under water and swimming to the barrel was no problem.

    Hopefully that helps, makes no sense this is still a problem.

    Please, don't treat this as a "known workaround". Having players solving the problems with brute force your team created is NOT a solution! It's been 3 years and the bug is still there. Either you guys are incompetent or just don't care anymore. Maybe both...
