The helicopter was found, stolen, and destroyed - apparently others find the island as alluring as Ducky does.

Awesome news, you say they are making dayz with the Arma 3 engine?
I was worried it would get the shaft and be stuck in the Arma 2 engine..

If they really polish it up I'd buy it as a standalone. Hell its what I've been waiting for really.
Want them to stop these half assed attempts, that will ultimately fail in Arma 2 and make a rock solid, zombie game/mmo/rpg/w/e.

I use to fly insertion/extraction for 3rd infantry in arma, I have years of arma 1, arma 2 experience, controller and all. I did stuff in that thing, that most people wouldn't even attempt.. Or if they did, they'd die anyway..
Little bird or Blackhawk? <3 Autorotation..

Reading up in previous posts, I see they have more vehicles now?
If so I'm hopping back in soon, been hoping to see that happen..
I just don't have the time I use too, I can't be running from point A to point B, then have to go to bed..lol..

Very good news to hear it's going in arma 3..

I'm pretty sure the chopper flight mechanics from ARMA2 are fairly close. The game is a combat simulator, after all.

sure, but just because it calls itself a combat simulator does not mean it is a combat simulator

Flying the chopper in DayZ is not difficult whatsoever. "Q" goes up. "Z" goes down. Like with driving any vehicle real life or not, everything is done gently to avoid a bad situation.

would you really be qualified to fly a real chopper if you flew one well in arma2? of course not. so saying that a real chopper pilot would be good at flying the chopper in arma2 is silly. like all things it takes practice.

true but D007 did the infil/extrct missions so I assume he has some tricks or config suggestions to improve mine and others flights.

Like I said, they are using the toolkit, they are using different features from it that branch between the games.

The problem with the island as a spot to save the chopper, is hat it's a spawn as well. So people will jsut find it while checking chopper spawns.
