I think there is smoke on West heli spawn only, not on East (but not 100% sure, long time I didn't see a East crash site, I think it was on 1.0 ...)

BTW the 3 West heli crash sites I found in 1.01 were not very generous. It was mostly basic military clothes (patrol pants, military vest) but no weapons/ammo at all. But on one of them I found a mil-tent, which was a good confort.

I'm still looking for an East crash site, in hope to find the holy SVD 🤗

I got my SVD from a west heli crash site (without magazine . .  ..)

OK good to know.

For the mags I already have plenty. Every single time I looted Tisy MB, I found several ones.

[aux7 234]

yeah, every time I went to Tisy I used to come away with plenty of SVD mags

No. The spawns are much more evenly distributed over the west of the map. So the old Green Mountain run or Lopatino loop don't really work I'm afraid.

Thx for all the help folks

Hey, does anyone know the general spawn/timing dynamics? I spotted a smoking crash about 500 meters away (near Lopatino) and it vanished as I was running towards it.... no server reset, just *POOF*

I don't want to start another topic - can someone tell me how much has changed since early January? Both in terms of features and persistence?

I'm sure there's a much more comprehensive list, but:

Persistence (largely) works now

CR527 and SKS back

Sedan, FAL and other things on Exp, so prob on Stable soonish.

And handheld optics don’t currently work in stable.

One day, too, was a similar experience. I saw the helicopter screw on the horizon of the hill, while I ran to him, he disappeared.
