Skalisty island

[Achilles* 1]

Wow, read about the island, so had to go there.

First impression....creepy as hell

Climbed tower to get a glimpse of the island(although slightly dark) and seen a UH H1....got in and found it had a full tank of gas, checked inventory and found 15 AKM mags and 5 AK mags, but no guns. Thought I'd check out the rest of the island, swarming with Zs, found a tent and Alice bag, some more supplies and somehow aggro'd a few Z's so ran to the chopper. Got in and couldn't for the life of me fly it, then somehow I started to climb high, turned ........ And crashed.

Respawn

Absolutely gutted, but was chuffed to fly a chopper for all of 2 secs.

[deathcon5 3]

I thought flyable choppers were temporarily removed from the game.

This is why you noobs need to play a little arma 2 you could have thoroughly enjoyed the helicopter or let other people enjoy it, instead you crash in all of 2 seconds so lame.

1. Fake story, Hueys aren't in DayZ.

2. The above poster is correct, I'm tired of DayZ bandwagoners that don't know shit about how to do anything in ArmA and don't use the tutorials.

[deviantdigi 22]

first time hearing about this Skalisty island. Where can it be found? Sounds interesting.

As for the heli, HAHAHAHAA! XD

[Aitloian 11]

"where can the island be found?"

Probably surrounded by water. In the only place on the map with a large enough body of water to support an island, the coast.

[DrHellNo 11]

Very old servers still have legit huey spawns.

ORLY?

Been meaning to get out to Skalisty one of these days. I'm sure anybody with a boat or chopper has a camp out there. Would be really easy to defend, as well.

[Daddy'o 4]

Huey spawns are disabled.

However, if you have a chopper before the spawns were disabled, they're still there and usable.

OP found a very old chopper.

[Aitloian 11]

Yeah found a good ol' chopper and crashed it into the ground right beside where it was parked so sad.

[Stonedknight 26]

Went there the other day and got promptly swarmed. Zombies even swam up out of the water near the Boat House. Scared the Hell out of me. I could only Hatchet so many of them once my Revolver ammo ran out. Died on the beach next to the boat i used to get there.

It was a blast. No regrets.

1. huey could have easily been hacked into the game.

2. get used to "dayz bandwagoners." nobody is going to bother with tutorials, everyone is just trying to learn the ridiculously non-intuitive control / inventory schemes of arma 2. i don't know the numbers, but i'm pretty sure dayz players out-number traditional arma 2 players by at least 10 to 1 by now.

[Aitloian 11]

90 percent of statistics are made up on the spot.

So your 10 to 1 thing isn't even close to being accurate there isn't even a million dayz players yet but arma 2 has sold over a million copies so your math is way out to lunch lol

But seriously though I could see learning the controls for the game in Dayz but a freakin helicopter? Any non moron would realize they should practice first before jumping in a flying vehicle

[void.false@gmail.com 300]

I remember finding a map ingame with a marker at skalisty saying "tent camp" or something. Lost all my gear while swimming and found nothing on the island :P

Maybe because I only brought arma 2 for dayz, yes it is lame I crashed it after 2 secs, I like to learn things the hard way, not sitting around trying to master controls.

I don't lie, the Huey was there, sitting in the clearing north east of the docks. I don't hack so either it's been there a while or someone hacked it there.

Here's me just sharing my experience with fellow players and get flamed, how I love forums.

Well, to be honest, you did crash the rarest vehicle in the mod, that doesn't even spawn anymore on most servers.

That's pretty much like using the Holy Grail as a piss cup.

Well considering I don't want to fly helicopters alot ingame, why SHOULD I practice? Maybe you SHOULD let people play how they wish, it's not like it's beta or full release.

/fishslap for you young sir.

We don't go to Skalisty any more.

I'd do that too, so what I crashed the rarest vehicle ingame, at least I know now not to use/fly it. pfft

[Targeter_NL 39]

Why were choppers removed?

Be more of a nerd.

Just be happy the mod is popular.

PFFFT.

Only pussies are afraid of those 'zombies'. Real men stand their ground with naught but a claymore and the heads of your former enemies as weapons, laddie!
