No heli crashes on server

Recommended Posts

Ever seen this ? It spawns vehicles and everything else fine but in four days of putting in some serious time we have not found 1 heli crash. Last night we looped from nw field down to Zeleno, up to the Stary-Novy area and surrounds. Thinking it was weird we also headed from Guglovo up to Dubrovka then across to Devils Castle and back down through the fields area to Stary.

Worst case scenario we should have seen at least one chopper with the amount of area covered and three people looking.

Any reason for this or is it a possible server setting ?

I have yet to see one, and I have driven around most of the map quite often in the past couple days.

Check it out, when you restart a server sometimes the objects don't load in, that means no vehicles, no tents, no heli crashes. You have to re-restart.

Weird huh.

This server is loading in everything else though, tents are saving randomly, vehicles at spawn points and saving where we leave them. all loot spawns are working..just 0 helis. Thats why i wondering if it is server side option ?

Strange, I found two today myself during one playthrough. I doubt it's a server side option, but maybe it's possibly the server was just having a problem with them.

I found 3 in about 2 hours. Its mostly about luck. I rarely find one, the 3 I found was an insane amoutn of luck. Got a nice DMR, M107, and Bizon out of it though

One word no-one has mentioned: RANDOM.

There's a CHANCE they will spawn, so don't bank on finding one. In saying that however, I've come across up to five scattered about on one server, two literally at either ends of the same field.
