I think most've us have seen that video (if not hundreds of times lol)
But yah they really want to you to fall as far as you can.

The Panau Island reporters also mentioned how extremely high the stage can go

"I was tempted after a recommendation from Mycoldman and everyone on the official forums to try out just how high you can go in this game, and believe me… I was up pretty high and it took me a lot of my precious time to get to the height i was at, but I didn’t even scratch the surface according to Mycoldman!" (http://www.panauisland.com/experience/)


x3 I'm soooooooooooo excited

i think the bar is about achevments like in gears of war when it would show how close to an achement you were. in the video he basejumps 592 meters and there is an achevment for basejumping 1000 meters and the bar is around half full

another thing about freefalling.

1. how far can you fall without dying?

2. if you somehow can stand on top of a plane without being in stunt position and jump off does it count as a base jump?

Hmm.. Not that we know of..

The highest non-freefall vid we've seen so far would be this one:


That's as high as we've gotten in terms of the gameplay videos..

oh yeah just so you know, the record of 1500m was for Basejumping not for freefalling

Basejumping is the same except you jump off a tall building or natural occurence (Cliffs, mountains etc.) that are 'connected' to the earth, where as freefalling can be from anywhere such as a helicopter or plane.

also i think for it to count it has to be non stop falling so no parachutes.

just saying to Jeffkeuh so nobody else gets confused.

i love being an annoying helper.

The answer is parachute.



















Or jetpack.
