Crashed helicopters

Would you still want your clips to refill on restart/login and logout?

Surely this should be consistent?

Now back on the subject... kind of.

Does anyone know exactly how many choppers spawn on the island i.e. 2 Merlins, x littlebirds, x armed littebirds, x Mi17, x Mi17S, Hueys any others?

I am concerned that the server I play on which now seems to have a good active player base will not have enough choppers for everyone

*edited for the 3rd time*
Also, can anyone tell me the difference between

AH6X - Littlebird no guns I believe
MH60S - ???
MH6J - ???

Thanks

The reason I ask, is I was thinking of having a combat chopper for missions, but dont want to be greedy... I am just being polite.

From your comment, I will assume that there are many choppers available.

Theres about 20 choppers all around taviana.

Owch, that really isnt a lot of the server has many active players - perhaps I will just stick with the Merlin and hope that when it takes me an age to land it in small confined spaces - I dont get shot down!

I was thinking of getting the Littlebird with armoury as a mission chopper but now feel that it would be greedy

35 choppers in total

AH6X = 2
HC3 Merlin = 2
Ka60C = 2
MH60S = 3
MH6J = 3
Mi-171Sh = 3
Mi17c = 2
Mi17 = 2
Praga(Green) = 3
Praga(Yellow) = 2
UH1H = 5 but two of these are on sector b
Uni Copter = 6

There is no armed littlebird. Since you moved to a pvp server greed is not a bad thing. Denial of assets is a very common strategy. Just keep your merlin and go get a littlebird. It will be where you found it as i hit a big lag spike while landing lastnight......i survived but the heli and most my stuff didnt lol.

The MH60S is the chopper I have, has 7.62 mm and 50 cal. guns
The MH6J is the little bird just an attack variant of the AH6X as it has guns, least i think that's right, could be the other way round tbh not sure as I dont use them

I also happen to know that there is only one of the MH60S's left as one of the new players have it

I cant remember what it looks like anymore. Is it small and agile?

Im thinking the MH6J might be useful for me to attempt missions but obviously give it away if players on the server are struggling to find a chopper. I gave my last one away to ishootpaint

I assummes the MH60s and MH6J were similar due to names but never mind haha

And thanks for answering that question

There are 2 littlebird varients. The standard 2 seat one and the one with the side skids for extra passangers. Both are unarmed. The mh60 is the armed seahawk/blackhawk, seahawk is the navy varient and blackhawk is the army varient if i remember correctly.
