Choppers

[Izziee 128]

Read a couple times in different posts as a passing comment that they were taken out the game. I've not played for a couple weeks, is this true? are they coming back? Any info on it please. Thanks!

yes, disabled due lag problems.

Last news : They will be enabled in one of the next patches, Radar still needs to be removed, after that : !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Rly? I had a chopper yesterday, found it a minute or two after spawning in cherno. Along shitload of player bodies surrounding it.

I managed to sneak around a guy and steal it

Generous guy. Later I blew it up though and then somebody turned us into cows :D

You really have no idea how utterly retarded that makes you sound, do you?

[Stilettor 1]

That was my intention :)

Choppers will be back on the next patch. Less radar capabilities.

Dunno, never had a chopper, don't think I would like having one in the slightest either. I guess I'm a bit like golum in the fact I get overly defensive when I do have something. When I find a vehicle I get so worried that it's going to get stolen I don't leave it, can't make myself a coffee or take a piss, it's a nightmare!

What was wrong with the radar anyway?

[Stilettor 1]

Well, with radar, you can just fly over all the map, spotting every vehicle on the ground. Even if it was hidden under the ground or something.

Can't wait to blow a few choppers out of the sky with a sniper team of AS50's. I feel sorry for the pilots ;)
