orangeknoxville 1 Posted August 23, 2012 you obviously didnt search the ground well enough. you have to REALLY look, I found one yesterday on my private hive character and found a l85 AWS in the grass. well i didn't know items spawned around it, also i didn't kill the zombies and staying near the helicopter kept me hidden. next time i will search around the place.

catface.jpg 75 Posted August 23, 2012 Found a crash site on a server last week, was anti-climactic for me and my buddy. There was no loot, probably it was already looted. it was exciting, though, in that we'd never seen one before. The chopper had taken out some trees on the way down, the detail in the modeling of the crash was impressive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bobstefanio 24 Posted August 23, 2012 Loot does not re spawn so if you find a chopper and there isnt much loot your either unlucky with the spawn or its already been looted. Also you have to look under the ground as if it spawns on a slope the items may be under the ground and you can target them its just difficult. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Almost every time I've gone to a crash site I have found something worth keeping. Keep looking and you'll find yourself some great weapons eventually.

CM LEGION 29 Posted August 24, 2012 I found an untouched copter on Skalitsky island and it had a ghille, antibiotics, a pleothora of guns and bloodbags/morphine. I'd say searching around for copters is better then anything else for fat loots. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thebulldog 8 Posted August 24, 2012 Found one north east of green mountain in the field just outside the deer stand at the edge of the woods. Found a DMR with three mags and NVG's. First and only time with either of those weapons. Was a good haul.Haven't seen one since and that was a few weeks ago.Cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Matchstick556 12 Posted August 24, 2012 Don't forget to kill the surrounding zombies and loot them. They usually have a good amount of ammo on them for high powered weapons. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kebabmiddag 0 Posted August 25, 2012 i actually found 9 heli crash sites with my team yesterday. 3 of them was really bad. tho i did kill alot of zimboes, but none of them dropped anything else than the usual shit... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NickM (DayZ) 57 Posted August 26, 2012 Found one yesterday (first one!), but going by the Enfield laying under the tail and the empty ammo box, I'm assumming it had already been looted.Zeds had nothing of note, either.Pilots all had chemlights or smoke grenades, and the soldiers had a stanag or two.Burned up a lot of MP5SD ammo to get in there. >:( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
