blunce 991 Posted June 19, 2014 (edited) Hey everyone, generally simple question. So we all know that with the new stable build, M4s are now spawning at heli crash sites only. Now my question is, does this apply to M4 mags & attachments as well? Can M4 mags be found at airfields & police stations still? What about attachments such as Magpul handguards & buttstocks? What about boxes of 5.56 rounds? What about optics? ACOG, M68, RVD1? I've only had my first 3 hour session on the current build last night. Found an M4 in a pile of loot that somebody left in Krasno (lol). Thanks in advance :D Edited June 19, 2014 by blunce Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FrostyKush 44 Posted June 19, 2014 I've found a 30rd stanag in a police station but no ammo or attachments. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Elle 562 Posted June 19, 2014 gee I just left a crash site and it was all helmets, handguns and ammo. there were no mags or attachments oh I did find a beret too. I have seen video from the crash sites from experimental that do show mags and attachments however so there is hope. in case ya haven't done it yet I highly recommend helicopter hunting. it takes you far from cover and concealment and leaves you well in reach of M4, AKM, Mosin and SKS. nothing like standing in the middle of a field feeling like a fly on a piece of typing paper... took almost 40 mins to get the courage to fast run that wide open space too.

blunce 991 Posted June 19, 2014 I've found a 30rd stanag in a police station but no ammo or attachments.I'm sorry I misunderstood .. The mag that you found had no ammo in it? Because if so, someone most likely had left it there. Or you mean that you found no ammo aside from the full mag? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've only had one play session so far & spent most of it hanging out in Novo. There's so much to do with this new update it's awesome! All in good time.

korpisoturi (DayZ) 127 Posted June 19, 2014 I have been wondering about this too. Had all my ammo stacked at 60 rounds and now its allllll gone :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kakysas666 191 Posted June 19, 2014 I found first m4 at heli crash and few magpul parts and 20 round magazine. Dropped it, because it is no use. I already have every part for AK but not AK itself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dagwood 680 Posted June 19, 2014 I found a full 40 round magazine at a heli crash site. Also found a full 30 round cmag in a camo building. Looks like they're still spawning outside of helicrash sites, but fewer than before. Good thing I grabbed an ammo box to start hoarding 5.56 rounds in Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheWizard14 372 Posted June 19, 2014 I went to both a crash site in Balota and NWAF and both heli crashes were right in the middle of the runway. Anyway as you are saying, I did find 3 40 mags, ammo, one 60 mag, an ACOG, M86, RVD1 sight, plus a Prestine RIS. Note though that the ACOG and most sights were damaged.

BadAsh (DayZ) 1513 Posted June 19, 2014 (edited) No, ammo and attachments does not spawn anywhere else but at helicrashes either, at least that is how it was in exp. However, in the exp you could still find stacks of 5.56 ammo at military places, but I think they may have removed those as well. At least during my roamings in current stable, as I haven't seen any.

frosti 2165 Posted June 19, 2014 I have been wondering about this too. Had all my ammo stacked at 60 rounds and now its allllll gone :) Exploit of stacking 60 rounds with 60 rounds mag has been fixed (can stack now only 30) and all your 60 was purged.

Khanarac 252 Posted June 19, 2014 (edited) Yes, M4 weaponparts are now crashsite only aswell..and my precious m4 just got taken by a hacker -,- curiously after I killed a 6 guy squad all armed with AKMs, and curiously about 6-8 AKM mags on each individual. I think I saw the 20round packets of m4 ammo still in military buildings. Also note that the M4 got buffed. Its ridicolous sway to the upper left was removed, you can actually now fire accurate salvos. Edited June 19, 2014 by Khanarac Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've yet to come across a crash site, but I feel that this kind of defeats the purpose of having M4s no longer spawn at mil. bases :( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

blunce 991 Posted June 20, 2014 M4s are now exclusive elite rifles for people who have big squads to comb map in search for ammo to those.Yeah, I read in a different post that the M4 was supposedly buffed. I just hope heli crashes spawning in air fields are a rare occurance. Just doesn't make too much sense having high value loot spawn where there is already high value loot to be found.

Well actually areas around NWAF are your best bet to find heli crash and heli crashed right in the middle of NWAF is not a rare sight too... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

frosti 2165 Posted June 20, 2014 Hopefully this will change in the future. Well it was pretty much same in DayZ mod, squads that controlled NWAF always had "easy" heli crash for them thanks to that. It was like a small bonus. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
