Oh man I can imagine it now.. Finding a car and fiddling with it, accidently setting its alarm off.. Then the entire town's population of zeds comes rushing towards the sound of the alarm.

Yes, I know there's tons of threads about this and a stickied help thread, but nothing is working for me. I've tried pretty much every solution. Restarted my PC, ran steam as admin, verified game cache, tried the regedit thing (which didn't work, after an hour of playing with the settings it still wouldn't allow me to delete ArmA 2 OA), relauched both games, and even deleted Operation Arrowhead and reinstalled it. Nothing. At this point I'm extremely frustrated and feel like I've wasted much money and time on this. Any help or anything? Kind of desperate so this thread is my last resort.

After coming across two heli crash sites within walking distance of each other, I found what appeared to be a huge care package. I've read about peoples' reports on these but mine appears to be different. This time it did not spawn with every gun in the game, it only had a few M4A1 CCOs and M1014s with one DMR. Can these actually spawn via editing server settings or is it the works of a hacker? This is what it looked like .. (I did not take this picture)

This is in Chernarus, it happened near the NW Airfield.

AS50s and M107s need to be removed from the game or made much more rare. They're just too overpowered.

Actually, there are random dead American soldiers on the ground throughout the map. I see them quite often and mistake them for dead zeds.

Hi, today I decided to get on and head for the NW Airfield to find a gun for my pal. Before I left, my vehicles (bus and sedan, both fully repaired) were in their hiding spots secluded deep in the woods. I managed to make it halfway to the airfield before logging out for dinner. Upon returning, I made my way to the airfield and collected the loot. I heard a player say in side chat that a hacker came on and despawned most the loot and all the vehicles. When I returned to my vehicles' hiding spot, they were both gone. A player also reported that his group's chopper had vanished. Is it possible for hackers to do this? If so, will my vehicles respawn at some point?

The server restarted and it all my vehicles were back. Although some random gear was missing from them, I'm grateful they didn't completely vanish. Thanks for some answers.
