w1lg5r 70 Posted April 16, 2014 I would like to see the helicopter crashsites from the mod brought back. The were a great addition and seeing the black smoke changed your approach to the game. It brought some more variety to the wilderness. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zedertone 378 Posted April 16, 2014 Have you watched any of the DayZ videos, and I mean any...Pretty sure that's been asked, and he has confirmed it will be back.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DropBearChick 1217 Posted April 16, 2014 (edited) The search function is there for a reason, use it!On a formal note in an interview with rocket at rezzed, rocket was asked this and he stated, hes not against it but he prefers the idea of giving players the tools ( helis and weapons to shoot them down with) so that the crash sites are from players instead of proceduarly generated.

plexico 386 Posted April 17, 2014 It would be cool, but I hope they aren't as common as they were in the mod. If you went to the stary/nwaf area there was a guaranteed 3-5 crash sites within 2km Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And i did use the search function and there are no threads i could find on this forum. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's a quite stupid and pretty much unworkable idea. the player crashsites would be like the mod, people would ignore them as they would likely have no loot. And i did use the search function and there are no threads i could find on this forum. If you ignored them then you were doing it wrong. I got a hell a lot of good loot off them and visited them regularly. In fact I was more likely to get geared up doing that then visiting NWAF for example. And loot spawns were way better at crash sites. Edited April 17, 2014 by chrismgtis Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DemonGroover 8836 Posted April 17, 2014 Ive always like the idea of random things like Heli crashes, truck accidents, overturned ambulances, derailed trains etc but i think the Devs are more into player made events rather than scripting something artificial. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
byrgesen 1341 Posted April 17, 2014 Ive always like the idea of random things like Heli crashes, truck accidents, overturned ambulances, derailed trains etc but i think the Devs are more into player made events rather than scripting something artificial. Hopefully, when we get some vehicles, this will be a reality :)Just imagine driving a bus (example) and crashing it against a wall at full speed. It blows up, slings the bodies of players around it and perhaps even spawns some "random loot" around it aswell, based on the kind of vehicle it is? I wont mind this being player created, but give us a little help aswell, like spawning abit of loot next to a crashed vehicle, in the trunk or spawning some dead bodies with random loot on them aswell.Its understandable the devs wants this to be player created, like everything else, but a little help from they're side would be appreciated hehe. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
