Xilver (DayZ) 4 Posted August 13, 2012 (edited) Crossposting from the server's forum:I was minding my own business, sneaking Into Cherno to look for food. I heard a helicopter pass overhead a couple of times, so I stayed hidden, which isn't that hard with the Ghillie suit I found a couple of days ago. When I was in a house, I heard a loud bang outside and saw a bright flash. Going outside I saw a helicopter ablaze, attracting a shitload of zeds. The helicopter exploded a couple of times more, so I waited until the explosions were over, and the zombies passed, before sneaking closer to the heli. I think I saw one body, but I could be mistaken because I was scared shitless, and just took whatever I could from the dead body, before running off into the woods. I got some NV goggles, an M4A1, a Czech backpack with a DMR inside, and a GPS.Now, while running, I heard another helicopter in the vicinity. It passed overhead a couple of times, thinking they were looking for me since I looted that corpse. The helicopter's light missed me by a couple of meters each time it passed, so I guess I got lucky. Now I'm relatively new to DayZ, but I seem to recall that there could only be one helicopter on a server at any given time, unless one was spawned? In any case, even if it's not legit, I had one of the most exciting DayZ nights in a while, so that's awesome :) Edited August 13, 2012 by Xilver Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Posted August 13, 2012 Two helicopters are possible, or so I hear. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
xRoosterx 2 Posted August 13, 2012 Yeah, just one per server. Although, my buddies got in a pretty fun chopper battle the other day with a hacker. To bad he had no piloting skills. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Xilver (DayZ) 4 Posted August 13, 2012 Meh, the standalone version can't come fast enough. I want to play this game the way it was meant to be played, without script kiddies and people spawning their stuff instead of legitimately raiding cities. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
