Back to Vanilla?

 I've decided to go back to the Vanilla Dayz helicrash tables. With patch 1.7.5.1 I felt the game really added some interesting guns, some great new loot mechanics with the crashes, and still kept a good balance.

Along the same lines I've got this to say about our short lived .50cal ban. It actually created a problem that I had not foreseen. Choppers, and especially the gunned choppers became too powerful, and were able to rule areas of the map with little fear of being shot down. Choppers are hard enough to balance, and after reviewing the numbers, I have put the as50, and m107 back into the game. They are very rare, and the NATO rounds for the as50 are even more rare.

Oh Chernarus!

 As you have noticed we have moved back to Chernarus! There were a few reasons for that, but none bigger than the Dayz patch 1.7.5.1. This patch can only be played on Cherarus, and it adds a lot of content we wanted our players to be able to enjoy! The second reason as the player base never really fell in love with Taviana. I'm not going to be stubborn about it, the numbers of people logged in told the tale well enough, and we've gone back to Chernarus for good this time!
