predator_v2 0 Posted May 9, 2012 Just now, i have found a chopper wreck standing next to stary sobor. Havent found a chopper spawn point yet, i was interested and approached the vehicle. The main rotor and tail of that huey was pretty fucked up, but it would let me enter the side door gunner position. I hoped, that maybe i could switch to the pilot seat internally and check out the damage and once i entered ... i instantly died...Living for several days now, #27 "longest survivor alive", M4A1 CCO and several other stuff gone, because of some pretty bad developer joke...Helicopter? No thanks!... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Blitzy 12 Posted May 9, 2012 Same thing happened to me - I planned to enter the pilot seat through the gunner door, since the cockpit doors were FUBAR. As soon as I got inside the door gunner position, I was instakilled.I ran back to the wreck to see if I could salvage the corpse. At first, I thought it had disappeared, but it turned out the body was directly underneath the helicopter wreck. By proning and clipping through the copter, I managed to land a bullet on my body's leg (now allowing the body to be selected) and retrieved my gear. Luckily.Lesson learned? If a vehicle's totally messed up, don't mess with it or it'll mess you up too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rocket 16567 Posted May 9, 2012 CONFIRMED.I have made an announcement about this!It's unfortunately a "killer easter egg". A nice surprise idea that ended up killing people. Whatever you do, do NOT get in the crashed heli's (grey ones), because they trigger the anti-hacking scripts and being instantly killed is probably the nicest result out of several the server might do to you (including turning you into a wild boar) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dustfallen 2 Posted May 9, 2012 Rocket, It's nice of you to offer to replace gear etc. You might notice there is a thread about this also in the bug forums I posted in last night.But this is alpha man, we are here to find these types of bugs for you. I also lost quite a bit of gear (miss my gps the most), and a character i have played for over a week. But i expect that in an alpha phase. We find the bugs for you, and you can fix 'em. No stress. :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
