Well, I was thinking about having a more realistic parachute. One that reacts when projectiles hit it. For Example: When a player is floating down with a parachute you'd be able to shoot at the green nylon part of the parachute. This would cause it to get a hole and you start to go down faster than usual. if this is too complicated you could arrange it so after a few shots to the parachute it closes and you can't re-open it without getting a new one. Discuss.
If this has already been submitted as a request I am sorry for re-asking.
