Great video again Weyland. :thumbsup: I was checking part 1 again yesterday, as I'm probably gonna start a thread for 0.49, on where players found their downed choppers. Since 0.49, the UH-60 crash sites are now share with the Mi-8 crash sites, and they both spawn different loot. (UH-60 = M4, M4 parts, ammo, FNX, etc. Mi-8 = clothes, helmets, hats, vests, the elusive SMERSH vest, but no guns or ammo) I found 4 crash sites so far on Stable 0.49. 1x UH-60 and 3 x Mi-8. Still on the hunt. B) Can't wait for part 3! Take care Weyland and thanks for sharing!

They spawn. They're just very rare because they spawn only in Mi-8 crashes. Like the M4 only spawns at UH crashes. Found 4 crashes since 0.49, 1 x UH and 3 x Mi-8, neither had the rare M4 or SMERSH vest. Lots of attachments and ammo/mags at the UH, and lots of clothes at the Mi-8. (only spawns clothes it seems) http://www.dayztv.com/pic/dayz-0-49-full-smersh-vest-backpack/

I don't have any problem finding AKM and AK101 in barracks. There's plenty of them. On the other hand, finding an UH heli crash site with and M4 is very tough. I keep finding the Mi-8 crashes instead, and they only spawn clothes (with the elusive SMERSH vest, the only way to find it...)

I also found 3 crash sites since 0.49, all Mi-8. Their spawn tables seem to be only for clothes, but it's the only place where you can find the SMERSH vest to attach the bags on it. I seem to find crash sites more often in and around NWAF, when they used to spawn a lot around Green Mountain/Zelenogorsk. I like that they are rare, but it's tough to find an M4 when it's what you want. The Mi-8 crashes seem to share the same locations as the UH ones also. Here's the possible spawn locations since 0.46 for Dagwood.

Doors are open and closed randomly at server restart. You were getting cold because you were wet/soaked. Down jacket only warms you up when you are dry. You need either a raincoat, or a gorka jacket to keep you dry. Also, there's currently a glitch/bug where when you are "over" water (docks, the Rify shipwreck, etc.) you get wet/soaked anyway.

If you want space and rain protection, the gorka military uniforms are water proof and offer 6 slots. I play a lot of times at night, and never got cold while staying dry. The down jacket is still the best clothing item to get you warm, but if it rains or you're already wet, it won't offer any good protection against the cold and risk of hypothermia.

If any of this gets into the game, I'll be happy! :thumbsup: All of those suggestions seem fantastic to me. On a side note, you probably know about the game "The Forest" right? If not, check it out. The survival aspect of the game is pretty nice. Back to DayZ, with bears and wolves confirmed, wilderness survival will probably be a challenge. And I like that. Devs are doing an amazing job imo. :beans: To you, and them.

It works perfectly outside. Was cold and soaked, and it only took about 3 mins to get dry, and warm. Just don't light them inside buildings right now, as it's glitched/bugged.

For 1911 mags, I usually have good chances finding them at office buildings (commonly called "school"), police stations and construction yards with the yellow crane. Check on the ledges of each floors. I've kept my engraved 1911 until I found a mag for it, even though I had 7 mags for the makarov I also had. Ditched it though, as my love for the 1911 is too strong... :D

Go to NWAF. Stop by the Pavlovo military base, Zelenogorsk, Vybor military base and finally the NWAF. Check barracks as they are you best chance at finding magazines. As for loose or boxed 7.62x39 and 5.56, any military spawn really. Had an AK101 and was looking for a mag, and when I finally found one, I had stumbled upon 4 AKM, 3 30 round mags and a drum mag for them, so I switched to the AKM.... Balota has been nerfed a lot since it's gonna become a civilian airfield instead of a military one. Good luck, and have fun!! Edit: Eventually, there will also be Myshkino military base. Which is all the tents that were at Balota... :lol:

Fantastic! Great video! Thanks for sharing!! :thumbsup:

It's the piano house in Berezino, coord : 126 . 055 http://dayzdb.com/map#7.126.055 Those houses have the housev2_03b designation.

I watched the full thing and commented before. I really liked all the info transmitted there and even though a lot of questions were not very important to me, some were very good and got answered very well. It feels like even though Dean is leaving, his heart is still deep in the project and he's still very invested in it. :thumbsup:

The quarry between Novo and Seve got a major upgrade too.

Same happened to me, but I immediately logged out when I saw I was a fresh spawn, and rejoined the server, and got back to my character. Since 0.49 went to stable, this happened at least 6 times to me. But each time, I was able to get my character back.

Funny stuff Street! The get warmer, you need to find better clothes. Wool coats and down jackets are currently the best to warm you, but a raincoat (like the orange one you picked up) or any gorka clothes will be overall better to keep you dry. Currently running or fighting won't get you any warmer. Nights are pretty cold honestly. (Even with a wool coat I was getting cold. Making a fire outside got me warmer.) There's a glitch currently with the shotgun, you can't unload it at all. You have to shoot both shots before reloading it. Keep it up Street! Have fun!!

Really enjoying your videos mate. Keep it up! :thumbsup:

Didn't even know there was one... :D Haven't seen any screens of it.

Helmet+visor+mask combo looks fantastic!! :thumbsup: Reminds me of S.T.A.L.K.E.R. style armors and clothing.

The area surrounding Severograd is fantastic. Much love for the north recently. :thumbsup: I also noticed that the cemetery south of Severograd got an upgrade on its chapel. FIrst there was a parking lot. Then they added the tiny chapel. Then, a few cars and tombstones/graves. And now complete makeover of the chapel. I really like to see the map reshape and evolve throughout development process.

Love what they done with the northern central town, nicknamed "under construction". Has everything a big town like Cherno, Novo or Elektro has. New sign at the western Novo entrance? Haven't seen it before.

Balota changed in stable. No more tents near the shore, just the 2 jailhouses, the ATC, the 2 hangars and the 3 barracks. I had some problems with doors not opening at the barracks, even though the doors at the jailhouse just north of them didn't have any problems opening and closing.

I found a lot of fire axes in open door grey sheds. (4 of them) And a few others in 3 story buildings in most towns. Not 1 splitting axe though. Edit: Finally found a splitting axe in a wooden pub/cabin! Still found 3 or 4 other fire axes in between...

Goodnight! Sleep tight! B) :thumbsup: (If you're randomly changing servers, you might change hive in the same time. Be careful with that. I currently have have 3 different characters. 1 hardcore and 2 different regulars.) Oh, and alpher....

Recent hardcore experimental branch character. (before yesterday's wipe... 0.49 being pushed to stable, experimental servers are now offline...) Very "tacti-cool", but I like his camo look.
