What is the priority for parachutes, or anything at all that can allow players to survive an ejection in atmosphere?
Joes · Technical Designer, Actor Feature Team

Parachutes. Yeah, parachutes sound nice. As we're adding more gameplay and stuff to do on planets, we're expecting to have more dogfights and so on on planets. So absolutely, you need to be able to bail out of your ship and survive the fall and not just fall to your death. So it's something that we want to do. And it needs designing from our point. And definitely something that I would like to see in our game.

It's funny, actually, because I do sometimes scan the thread on Spectrum before we come here. And I saw this question, and I was like, oh, parachute? Yeah, we've talked about it a little bit before. And it was funny, because then not long after that, I was just scrolling down Twitter. And I saw, sorry, I can't remember who it was, but someone put a community vote up there: what would you like to see in game next? And it was like a Banu hover bike, a couple of other really cool things, and then parachute. And I was like, let me just look at the results. Parachute was like 90%. And so it was like, oh, wow, you guys really, really want a parachute. So yeah, that's something that we'll be looking at in the future. But like Joes said, there's just no timeline on it right now.
