pontiacgtp00 0 #26 February 13, 2008 I bought this game a little while back, before I started skydiving. Its a fun game to play and I like it, but I don't really take it seriously. Got some cool jump spots though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
virgin-burner 1 #27 February 13, 2008 so did i, just got disappointed at the time where i found out that the web-version of the game was better supported. and that i was being offended by some, well, not such a nice guy..“Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S.

gimpboogie 0 #29 February 15, 2008 Quote There's a giant thread in BASE about this game, where the developer has solicited input from jumpers. ok I'll go look at it. i got the web edition of this game, i had the demo, which worked fine for me, i did download it with antivirus program on... anyways I do find the game realistic in many aspects to sky diving, except the glaring fact that you can kill your person 3 times before he's really dead.. hhmm... ok, I find that it helped me with understanding lots of canopy relate stuff that didnt click in my head before,'I'm getting better at rigging related decisions, and understand the general benefits of planning your dive and diving your plan... my player has discovered the downfalls of not executing this BSR of BASE game, at the Troll wall a few times and the TV tower in Moscow. Russian site, sure maybe I didnt pay attention. Maybe I got lucky with the download....? it all went fine, demo included and the game is in english, audio is good... graphics are fine until you land, then sometimes my fellow hovers in the air a few feet off the ground or the rocks are difficult to judge in distance *but in reality, if im flying so close the rocks are difficult to judge i should not be there...* one thing i must admit as a negative for sky diving is that if I was to play it as a BASE jumper (in mind) rather then a sky diver i think i would learn some basic incorrect muscle memory issues... i.e. if i build pathways in my mind to swooping and hooking my landings in the game just because its a game and I can.... and do this 1000 times in a week, i wonder if my mind builds an imprint that this is a viable option to choose from, when im doing the real thing and i need to rely on instinctual action in an emergency. just incase there is anything to this, i decided to play the game more conservatively, and play my character more like a sky diver, even if BASE jumping, choosing some pretty simple jumps now only. i haven't killed him once, and he is only building his endurance, skills and strength as I play it this way. If I was playing it like a BASE jumper, I would be practicing what ever it is I'd be doing next in real life. Not going to to the Troll wall to kill my character.. just because I still will have 2 left, good game,i like it. too bad many are having trouble either with loading it, getting service/customer support, or even computer difficulties, in light of all that, then i would have to say i got lucky.
