3 seconds is more than enough. Most Pilots don't fly high enough anyways.
During the lst test 3 secs was just barely enough. ^^

1) You'd better be joking about the marijuana thing. Olives yes, marijuana no. (At least then... I know they grow it there now, but I don't think so 67 years ago)

2) "Marijuana" (I'm in a terrible nit-picking mood, my apologies.)

3) printf("THIS MAP LOOKS AWESOME");

printf("!");
goto(reallyFreakingAwesome);

Is Marihuana or Mariguana in Spanish Marijuana is for gringos :P

And yes, it's a joke

Marihuana for the win. ^^

Weed fields?
So shooting a HE or throwing a grenade in there will provide a smoke screen right? Nice for tactics... but you will probably get that dizzy-screen-effect after you have run through.

I've got few questions:

1. Will you stand on the plane or sit? (mean when you get in the vehicle pressing E).

2. On safe drop zones, is there green smoke grenade or such? If not, it can be hard to find (if not in minimap) but in commander menu it would be awesome to send for example "mine these cordinates" (of course with different text ) to pilots and squads meaning "paradrop here" with smoke grenade on the ground (don't know is it possible, just an idea)
