_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ If you don't want to read the post, my general question is "Do helicopters de-spawn after a certain amount of time of nobody getting in or out of them, or after being left alone for a certain amount of time?" _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Me and a few friends have had a helicopter on a server 2 times now, we hid it pretty well both times the first time was pretty close to the edge of the map (Like within 30 meters of the line) so we took it that was why it de-spawned, along with a land-Rover we had with it. This time around we made sure to put it inland somewhere, to take away the ability of the server de-spawning it due to zone restrictions, we had a friend log on and check it out... it was still there. Later on though, like literally 45 minutes, we came back and it was gone.. at first we thought someone had taken it, which was the natural reaction... but we had some tents close by it, in plain clear sight of the helicopter, both filled with decent gear, 2 AS50's, 2 M107's, Fal's with night vision, that sort, but all of it was still there? they didn't touch anything but the helicopter if it was a player, which just doesn't make sense to me, if it was me I would have at least taken something, a blood bag or anything just to have some extra supplies... so has it de-spawned again or what's going on with our god dam choppers? :(

But then that raises the question of why they didnt touch the tents... although i suppose they could have been geared enough that anything in them just wasent worth it

So i started on the RPC3 server a while ago, i did what i could for fun and then i had friends join... We soon found a clan owned the server along with their admin, they traded a truck for a Ural and then left, a few hours later 2 of us were running about 50 meter north of our already discovered camp to get food and we die in the forest, i surrender but still get shot. A day or 2 later we go up north and discover this clans base, take 2 sets of night vision and a range finder among their 3 helicopters and multiple vehicles and tents.... they found out and gave us the whole "Were coming to get you", a guy on the server (Therapist) even said "I'm picking up some lube on the way cause were gone rape you" (or something similar to that, trying to be funny) and when they got there we killed 3 of them and they ran with their chopper, Therapist freaks out and starts flaming on chat xD it was hilarious... 3 down (we moved our base up north more before they attack, so they couldn't have known were we were) were sitting at our base, 15 minutes into sitting there the admin comes over side chat, "Guys sitting at (Our base location) keeps your heads up", obviously using admin powers to find us...one of there members play "flight of the Valkyries" over the side chat speaker... after about a minute 3 choppers fly over firing, we take down 1 with an AS50 and then kill one of their guys that was killed just beforehand in the forest... 2 more down the server restarts and all 4 of us have axes and disable side chat so we cant taunt them any more ..... so they must have deleted items, and now its dark, the items were still in our bags though so we had 2 M4's, AS50 and a DMR... we go back to the camp and take our remaining vehicles up north right on a course for their base (Because we assumed we were going to get banned or kicked) on a suicide run toward there base... driving across the land suddenly a chopper pops up... so they must have used there admin power to find us again. everyone jumps out and opens fire on the chopper, 1 door gunner dies and another guy takes his place... another door gunner dies, the admin comes over some chat channel (Not side chat, we werent sure what it was but it was a global chat of some sort) and tell us "You took out the gunners but you forgot me the pilot, so cya later bitches" and crashes his helicopter straight into my ural and i die... with 3 of us left my team-mates drive closer to their base... when suddenly i get banned.... then 2 more us get banned... finally our last guy is left, they agree to meet up with him, a short drive later our guy gets out of his car and walks toward their UAZ with his gun lowered... they try to drive over him but fail and only break his leg, our guy shoots the guy that dives out of the car and then while bandaging sees another guy behind him, killing both he started to bandage himself... only to be banned 10 seconds later... the only way to stop us, was to ban us... how fucking low can an admin get? Total 8 kills for us.... 1 for them (and that 1 was a suicide fly in with a chopper) So the moral of the story is... if your going play on RPC3 (I think its the Eff3cts clan but don't quote me and if its isn't them I'm sorry for pinning this on a clan called Eff3cts) then expect to be restrained from killing/taking anyone/anything that's part of their group... because your going be zoned in by the admin and swarmed by their shitty players, in an attempt to stop you creating some friendly server competition

Thanks for the offer man, we will check it out

Fucking beat them at their own game, thats what we did xD

Basicly everything you mentioned happened, accurate description xD

They pritty much couldnt handle being shot and killed by a superior group, so they banned us after multiple attempts at our death and failed... im not so annoyed at being banned... its just that they couldnt take the heat and even with admin abuse they still lost

Hay, glad to attend the event, hope it goes well :)

so i was sitting around in dayz when all of a sudden i have an AS50... M4 CCO SD, packpack full of amazing gear ammo and a NV + Range finder, as well as my 2 friends sitting right next to me... what just happened? we switched server in fear that a hacker just did it and would instant kill the server so we switch server, went to another and theres a dead body near us with all the same gear? Did every Dayz Player just get this or not?

No doubt :P But why would it happen on 2 completely different servers one after another? that's what didn't make sense to me... was making this wondering did everyone everywhere get this gear all of a sudden.

Another update, were sitting on this new server for less than 5 minutes and a random guy runs up with all the same gear as us and starts shooting, i shot him twice in the back with the AS50, he died normaly... im so confused, what the hell is going on

So me and a friend were sitting on the hill north east of Elektro waiting for someone to come along and hopefully have something worth taking, about half an hour passes... only noobies, nothing worth wasting a shot or revealing our position on, then we see this guy running into Elektro like a psychopath, looking like he had the right player look that was worth us taking a shot, but because he was going crazy and just sprinting the shot was probably going to miss so we decide to wait until he finishes and follow him out of elektro. about a short walk west we see a tent sitting in the middle of nowere and just take it "Whatever, must be a random tent... nobody is going to leave something good in there" (Oh were we wrong...) we follow this guy all the way to cherno and lose him like the silly trackers we are... (I'm not going into cherno for some guys loot...) so we double back to our spot and ones again we seem to be passing that tent all the way back near Elektro... so we decide to take a peek at this thing... the conversation basicly went "Im gona look at the tent here... have an eye do- OOOOHHH MYYYYYYYYY GODDDDDD....." 2 - Mk48 Mod 0 2 - M14's 1 - M16 4 - 100Rnd LMG ammo boxes 8 - Stanag rounds 9 - Cooked meat Multiple tools and other types of ammunition. What the heck did we just come across in the most obvious place possible... was this a hackers tent and he just left his things here? i dont understand this tent was so easy to spot a noobiefresh of the coast would probably think to themselves its not worth checking because who the heck is going to leave something... in a tent... in a field... NW of Elektro... I dont think ill ever leave that 1 random tent to chance anymore... So my question is, have you ever found something amazing when your expected literally nothing?

Found the same thing a really long time ago in Dayz, was in a random area out in the countryside, an old broken church... next to it was a road with the same truck, all the crazy gear you would expect - NV, coyote packs, all types of med supplies, 50 cals... the lot, was my first ever look into the higher tear items in the game, safe to say it didnt last long as how new i still was :P

Was this yesterday by chance? i had a friend go to the tent and gear up on the M14's that were left behind and he got fired upon, we had to give him support while he sprinted across the field toward the mountain haha :D
