It might depend on your server host, our server is provided by vilayer and they have twice got us a new instance ID within 24 hours of requesting one. We got our newest one on the 11th Sept... so I don't think they would have changed anything since then.

Yes the loot only spawns once every server reset, when the server restarts the heli crash sites will be reset in 5 random locations... I think

Yes Hull, VRotar, HRotar, Missiles and some other things I can't remember :P all need scrap metal

I had this problem as well, we ended up requesting a new instance ID because after 15 days still didn't spawn. If anyone does have a fix for this though, would be greatly appreciated!

You still need scrap metal to fix up the hull and various other bits on the chopper, should be good to go after that!

I'm glad the numbers are dropping every day I encounter more and more survivors who are actually friendly and not just shoot on sight players. The who stay will be the ones who have the creativity to make this game great and not just get bored and go on killing sprees, because "they have nothing better to do"

You NEED: 1 Main Rotor Assembly (6 inventory slots) 1 Engine parts (6 Inventory Spots) 1 Jerry can at least (3 Inventory slots) (Takes 50) 4 Scrap Metal (3 Inventory Slots each) 8 Windscreen Glass (2 inventory slots)

The Soldier Camo used to be in the game, so some veteran players still have it. But more than likely it is a hacked in item that has been duped multiple times. Doesn't mean that player hacked it in though, he could have discovered it in some tents somewhere.

I like the randomness of the hive servers, even though hackers are a pain in the ass you get the occasional laugh out of trying to kill a sheep for some meat and it turns round and starts shouting at you. Private servers I feel would go stale for me after a while as I got to know the people who play on them, I would feel to "safe" and predictable. Chaos is what makes the game interesting, getting frustrated about being killed by a hacker just reminds me of raging at CoD because of campers. If it wan't the script kiddies it would be something else.

I don't know about you guys but when I log into a server and someone has a few thousand zed kills I am a little impressed.

The duping problem is the biggest issue at the moment IMO, I would be happy to play alpha as it is now until stand alone if they fixed it. As I am helping to establish an effective trade outpost, having gear so easily accessible does not help our cause. @kryvian Tents still come back on restart with whatever gear they had in them when they were last saved, so if you empty a tent and save it, on restart there will be nothing in it.

Vilayer host our server and they are pretty damn good. Quick support response and patches are normally available the next day, if not sooner. And I believe they will be helping with hosting for the standalone.

We normally jump in the arma 2 armory if were having a slow day, You can waste literally hours there. Although I wouldn't technically say we were playing arma :P

Me and my group were talking about this the other day, Although the chance of Rocket implementing this is pretty slim... Going round eating people essentially makes you a zombie... that can shoot...

Fort Haven (Probationary Member of the Coalition) are now open for private trade, I will be dealing with all requests VIA PM for the time being. When we will be fully open to the public depends on how well this trail period goes. Thanks for your support guys.
