Does anyone know why the button that's supposed to give you a slow fall off the vehicle... drops you like a stone instead?
I mean at this point I've accepted it as a rite of passage that I must die and run to my corpse whenever this WQ spawns, but I'd like to know if it's just me.
I just wanted to add if you're an idiot like me and fall off, you can clip up @ 37.06, 41.84
Note: The Signal Flare extra action button at the end of the WQ returns you to Plunder Harbor on the East Coast. NOT where you started the WQ.
