flexho 78 Posted July 29, 2012 no experience, but may have some suggestions:* Have the ammo in your main inventory?* Standoutside the heli with the ammo in the main inventory, try scroll on it and say "Reload bla bla at bla bla" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ripbabyg@hotmail.co.uk 125 Posted July 29, 2012 Hmm, when helicopters was here before they had like infinite ammo, i have seen it on a few videos and i can't see that it has been changed unless it got changed in the Arma 2 patch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alvarie (DayZ) 14 Posted July 29, 2012 Yup, the whole point of the helicopter isn't to just fly over every city guns blazing, it's for rescues, scouting, or to help in a significant firefight on a server. Having unlimited ammo via guns/etc would be rather silly in a Helicopter :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Maverick1701 0 Posted July 29, 2012 Have you tried putting them in the helicopter inventory? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cheetos (DayZ) 0 Posted July 29, 2012 Have you tried putting them in the helicopter inventory?yea, Ive tried pretty putting the ammo pretty much everywhere. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wo3dy 111 Posted July 29, 2012 maybe the ammo come sback after a server restart? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nickseemann@gmail.com 9 Posted July 30, 2012 It comes back after restart, but it's still lame that we can't reload it. We had saved up like 20 belts of ammo thinking you could reload it but nope :/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iongaming33@aim.com 137 Posted July 30, 2012 Answer, have the 100 round box in your main inventory. Works for us Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Buffjesus 357 Posted July 30, 2012 comes back after a reset and is the only way Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gumpnstein 133 Posted August 3, 2012 This is brillant...a chopper that you cant reload ammo on until server restarts...must be some complicated coding to have a heli that reloads ammo...lol Sure they will figure it out in a few months. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pazuzu 9 Posted August 3, 2012 In regular Arma 2 it requires an ammo truck to rearm a chopper, plane or any vehicle that has a gun on it.Seems like making ammo trucks as a relatively rare spawn would suffice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

red_orchestra@msn.com 112 Posted August 3, 2012 It comes with a lot of ammo already, and so many servers restart daily, the servers I play on restart 4 times a day. That's plenty of ammo to be greifing people with. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stryker211 10 Posted August 3, 2012 Anyone know for sure IF THERE IS A WAY to reload the ammo? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MastaOfDisasta 30 Posted August 3, 2012 Anyone know for sure IF THERE IS A WAY to reload the ammo?There is not. I thought that was made clear by now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stryker211 10 Posted August 3, 2012 There is not. I thought that was made clear by now.I'm under the impression that it's not possible, but people keep saying that it is. My previous post is asking those who say it's possible to post how they think it works if they are saying it does. We tried everything you can think of and nothing works obviously.
