Tenzwood 2 Posted May 25, 2012 Today, 5/25 at around 2AM, CST, on TX3(zero zombies, it was bugged) One of my friends saw a helo leave Bolota airstrip. He informed me and our friend who were up in the NW airfield that it was heading our way. We camped out and sure enough, it landed there. I played bait as I was about dead anyways, and he snuck around and killed both as I took for cover. Took the helo up and flew it quite a ways before it ran out of gas and crashed on the ground. Good day I'll tell you that:D[attachment=432][attachment=433][attachment=434]Question is, whose helo did we take xD Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tenzwood 2 Posted May 25, 2012 That's actually some good screenshots.Why thank you. Wish they could have been in max settings, but for some reason the game works fine in 3rd person max settings, but bugs the hell out in first person, so I'm stuck on medium so I can actually shoot and hit things xD(I don't like 3rd person games much, other then to run around and see around corners) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
boxman80 964 Posted May 25, 2012 Ive never seen a working chopper yet. Only found 1 crashed one too. In fact Ive never seena working vehicle yet. I heard a motorbike or ATV nearby when I was near Stary Sobor but didnt actually see it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BasHy (DayZ) 0 Posted May 25, 2012 Nice screenies, i especially like the first one! Really epic :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SimpleBooty 0 Posted May 25, 2012 LOLOL God this was an epic night.After 4 hours of adventuring from Elktro, to Pusta, up through Mogilevka, Long hauled it to Stary Sobor, supplied up than went to Kabanino, than head to the Airfield, where it was empty of survivors first, looted that, headed over to Grishino.Once we got there, like Tenzwood said, our buddy between balota and the NW airfield freaks out "HOLY #@%# I JUST SAW A HELI FLY OVER ME! I think its going to the NW airfield!" on ventrilo. Now all 3 of us never saw a Heli before so we were like "Alright, back to the airport!". so we booked it across the field between the airport and Grishino, used binoc's to spot the Heli landed at the last hanger, snuck around them, than realized our buddy wasn't able to spot how many were on board, and he assumed only one of them was.So Tenzwood goes all "I'll die a hero since I've only got 3k blood and no blood bags" mode and walks right out into the airfield, The bandit opens fire on Tenzwood, but I see someone else prone behind a crashed Hummer, protecting the bandit, so I sneak up and take out the hidden guy, check his pulse, than take out the bandit, check his pulse. Heres the best part.. screen read "The pulse is strong"So I removed their weapons from their bags, tried to help Tenzwood, than took off in the Heli, flew for about 30seconds, than the rotor stopped. So the two guys probably saw me take off the same way as Tenzwood did in the screenshots, which HAD to of caused SO much rage. hahah. They also got to see it fall out of the sky, which either made them happy that I died, or even more pissed off that their heli got totaled. ahah.Nonetheless sorry for whosever Heli that was indeed, you opened fire first on Tenzwood so I don't feel as bad, we're not hostiles lol we would have gladly accepted to just tag along if they would have said "Friendlies at the airbase?" in chat instead of just opening fire on him....

cuca 20 Posted May 25, 2012 I dont get it, you had minus blood, you were basically dead but then you stole the heli? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lulu! 3 Posted May 25, 2012 That's pretty damned epic, good job with that. I definitely like to see this type of gameplay! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
orbital 10 Posted May 25, 2012 ...Took the helo up and flew it quite a ways before it ran out of gas and crashed on the ground...Thought it was cool till I read that you crashed the chopper, what a waste. Hopefully the respawning works on that server. 'Our' server doesn't have any choppers currently because of theft and crash (think it's a respawn bug, admin is informed).Aside from all that, nice steal and screenshots :cool: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SimpleBooty 0 Posted May 25, 2012 I dont get it' date=' you had minus blood, you were basically dead but then you stole the heli?[/quote']No, the person that took the screenshot is laying flat on the ground dying. When he got shot I bandaged him after killing the two, gave him painkillers and morphine, and that stopped him from just dying instantly, so I was trying to take the Heli and find some blood/food/water to save him, but I didn't know anything about heli's other than the controls since it was my first one and apparently there was no fuel. so the screenshot is him laying on the ground watching ME taking off in the Heli, Not him.

We raged just as much as the guys we stole it from prolly did when it just flopped to the ground. But hey man, when you see a heli, two guys guarding it, take them out, your first instinct is to take it.. Looking back now in a calm state I probably would have opened up steam first before take off to research.. Since I now know how to refuel a heli / etc. :( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

css_god@yahoo.com 543 Posted May 26, 2012 Why would you take the helicopter with zero intention of refueling it elsewhere and actually using it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
orbital 10 Posted May 26, 2012 Why would you take the helicopter with zero intention of refueling it elsewhere and actually using it?I'm tempted to call it griefing but I'll correct my self before going too far... Let's just roleplay it and say; Wow, a helocopter! F'k it, I'm gonna steal it a get the ride of my life before the zombies get me - "Goodbye cruel world, Jeeehaaa!".Most people would do the same, even if they couldn't fly it properly, the temptation of a brief exitement is simply to big, I guess.
