    base jumping stopped entirely since update

    base jumping has been sketchy at best since "release"(beta) but since the update even the guaranteed sites fail and you just fall off the edge. i used to fast travel to passage point bivouac and jump the cliff to get to haruhi's daily elite but ever since the update i just walk off the edge without ever deploying my parachute. if they cannot fix base jumping at least allow us to deploy our parachute in midair so that any failed basejump doesn't have to be fatal.

    Hi there, for the base-jump to work, kindly note that you need to press and hold the button rather than just press it, and we are also looking into how we can improve the base-jumping in the game.

    But if it has stopped completely for you, please open a ticket with our support team and provide them with info they need: http://support.ubi.com/

    We know how to do it. Something changed. Now you have to be in the exact right spot on the ledge, like the spot you can jump from got smaller. How about adding a prompt for base jumping so we know when we are in the right spot. There's a prompt for every other action in the game, but not base jumping.

    UBI-HAYVE Add icons to indicate when/where you can base jump. Make it akin to parkouring over knee level obstacles or climbing up ladders. Side note: add a rappel feature to traverse up/down cliffs.

    Go through Wildlands code and copy and paste. Weird how it just worked in Wildlands (aside from that helicopter fiasco).

    You can't improve it yet, to improve it, it first needs to work. It doesn't work, the term you are looking for is fixing it.

    You can take the "corporate wording" gloves off here, you know, we know, no need to be gentle, the fact that we are here talking about it should send a clear message that we have the same end goal. We provide honest feedback, you (ubi in general, not you personally, since I don't put emojis everywhere it can feel harsh), act on that feedback.

    Having to be flat footed on the edge of a cliff was hard enough before the patch but it is worse now. Known jumping points don't work anymore. I've only managed to jump off passage point once in 15 tries since the update, and I'm trying every angle, every square inch of the rock.

    I've based jumped since the patch with no issues. I do agree that maybe a prompt would be great. Personally ibwould like to be able to base jump where Harui Ito is inside of falling down to get to her.

    Since the patch I've been consistently unable to base jump from the bivouac when going to talk with Haruhi Ito. Never had any issues before the patch and now I always tumble off the cliff.

    Same. I've noticed this as well. Ever since the last patch. It's not working at all now, no matter what I try.
