On the helicrashes, I feel like if they made any significant changes, it would have been in the changelog. All prior versions had comments when they made changes with respect to helicrashes.

 

However, given that we have all had increased difficulties when finding a crash, how do we reconcile between these two? Note that I realize Mookie's point about heli and car spawns are together now, but I feel that is a big enough change to warrant a line in the changelog

 

EDIT: Reddit says that on persistent servers, helicopter models dont spawn any more on persistent servers, but the loot may still spawn around the area where helicopter models should spawn. I am not sure if this is true because I did see a smoking UH-60 at NWAF the other day and have seen a couple of russian ones post .50, caveat is that I am not sure if I was on persistent or not. So my question is, how do you tell if a server is persistent just from the name?

Right now, all servers are persistent.  The reason 'Christmas loot' is happening is because of a server install issue.  Both persistence and non-persistence is on.  Meaning, each time the server resets, items spawn.  Each time the server resets it's also persistent.  It seems to be only happening in fire stations and military structures.  The items are NOT duplicated, which some believe.  If you go to a server with Christmas loot in the fire station, you may only find a single protector case, because it has a lower spawn chance (and it isn't duped).  Also, I've been to 5 black hawks now..  Typical spawn points for me still..  I agree they would add it to the change log if they changed things up.

so your view is that nothing's changed with respect to heli spawning, and that I am just fighting probability? I mean I have been doing my route for a couple of days and have gotten 1 helicrash, pales in comparison to before 0.50. So perhaps there is some legitimacy to the Reddit comment that heli models are no longer spawning consistently because I tend to look for the smoke/wreckage without going to the spot, so if the models are spawning, doesn't mean the loot isnt there.

Something has definitely changed. I'm aware of the gambler's fallacy, but I'm also aware of the law of averages, and right now the latter is waaaay out of whack with 0.49. The more runs I/we do, the less the effect of randomness. And I've done a lot of runs.

 

I'm trying to engage Hicks in conversation about it.

 

BTW, not 100% sure that previous changes to heli spawns were always in changelogs.

you mean out of whack with .50. 

 

i looked through quite a few changelogs, seems like changes to helispawns are always mentioned.

No, I mean out of whack with 0.49, in the sense that this is much worse than 0.49...

 

I seem to remember some backtracking on the situation in 0.47, but could be wrong.

Heli spawns were worse in .49? I didnt notice that at all

[HoneyB-John 17]

Well whatever about the crashes.  I haven't seen less than usual, I haven't been looking for them.  Just did a few swings around green mountain while moving around the map.

OT

Have;

Blackskull balaclava

2 press vests, one of each color (p) (will be gone tomorrow)

Want;

5.56mm

M4 bayonet

M4 silencer

MP5K buttstock

M4A1

ALL FACIAL BANDANNAS (YES, I SAID FACIAL)

 

EDIT

Just did a trade with Miracool, had a tiny bit of trouble with server kicking, due to being in different countries.  Not a problem though, as once we found one we traded.  I was slightly weary because I haven't seen him on the trade forums.  He was fine with me holding my mp5, with his gun on his back.  Very respectable, all the items were as described.  Thanks a lot Miracool!

Just traded with larsehh_, his in game name is milkypOps. He is a first time trader and I took a shot with him. He complied with all my terms, including leaving the trade item (an m4) outside the church, leaving all his stuff inside the church and meeting me outside in his underwear. He has 675 hours on Dayz and I think he is worthy of our group. Feel free to trade with him, bring your own security if you would like but I think he's all right.

Malmborg and I traded with Yawdarious just now. Went smoothly, I was a bit more cautious than usual but it was fine. Talked to him for a bit too. Think he's fine. Do trade with him.
