Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee. You shot down a Huey on a private Hive where you all probably just script in whatever little toys you want to play with. That takes SO much skill. Come back when you can do it with an Enfield on an ACTUAL server...

I LOL'd...

No, no, no.... THIS!

Scripted vehicles will despawn after resets and/or a period of time.

The infection! It's gone airbourne!

That sounded like a missile/rocket incoming. Didn't here ANY engine I know of...

If you were hearing explosions then someone may have scripted in an AH1.

1 chopper per map... legit that is. Scripturds, on the other hand, will constantly bring them in... and often get them stolen (those despawn after a reset, however).

Just to confirm: That's a known ArmA II glitch with a crashed aircraft. :D Though, odds are it was a scripted Huey that went down anyway :P

There's been an issue recently where when a server is freshly restarted tents may not show immediately. Just give it a bit.

Absolutely none for me in Cherno, Elektro nor Balota, which is where I had seen them almost every time (haven't been to NW airfield today).

Nope, the FAL uses FAL magazines. It's .308 caliber, but .223 (aka 5.56).

"I think I've seen that one. Is that the one with the plumber?" - I lol'd

That just makes me feel so much more justified in our murder of Shiggy Diggy...

Wait... I thought the best place to set up camp was in the church in Cherno?!?!

My group and I ran into this situation ourselves recently. Our solution? We gathered in the middle of the woods, put some leftover gear in a tent or two, ran a random direction, had a group hug as a teammate chucked a grenade at our feet... and then tried to meet up in Cherno and start all over.

Also, just run ArmA II OA and Combined Ops really quick (Boot Camp or whatever) if you are using the Steam version and then run DayZ again.

7 days is fine. The moment it gets to a point where you are tripping over choppers is the moment I go play some Counter Strike. The amount of time and materials it takes to get a Huey back in the air is the kicker. Seriously, can we not WoW-Generation this game where people start expecting to have everything in 30 seconds or they pout?

A server ban and a global ban are two very, very different things. The OP is asking about a global ban. And if you are encountering Admins abusing their power, Rocket and his team are usually pretty good about crawling up the server admin's buttocks about that sort of thing. That being said, if you USE a scripted in weapon/vehicle... expect to be CALLED a "hacker".

Heh, just hit R and reload. You have 10,000 swings per reload. USE THEM WISELY! :P

From everything I have seen it comes from the ruined vehicles, which would explain why it's there in DayZ but not in Chern when playing on the Armoury. I have my video memory set to default, but it still hits for me. I haven't tried "flushing" my memory as mentioned above... but who knows. Right now I am just avoiding those areas. Don't really need anything from there anyway.

I, uh, wait, wha? Beans for you! I would have never thought of this!

You are murdering Battleye employees? Jesus man, there's your problem! Oh... you meant in-game, right? RIGHT!?

The Bandit Skin/Morphing has been gone for quite some time...

ArmA II is HORRIFICALLY un-optimised, sadly. It's also a very CPU-dependent game, which isn't going to help you either.
