Wesley Balestrini Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 How can I "run away" from him? I stay in a house? I had read in some development post that getting into the forest also helps. How do I know I'm properly hidden? The last time, I walked towards a tree until my vision was blocked in the 360º. The helicopter wandered through the city but then turned to my head, taking a few minutes for the event to pass. Does anyone know exactly how this event works?

Lightning Flash Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 From what I know, it's just a metagame event that can occur at random. You can't exactly "run away" from it, it's just there to move zombies around the map - that includes potentially moving them straight towards you. It's completely random.

I think I read in the moondoid that the helicopter follows the player getting more active time and that to reduce this time, you should get rid of it. I wonder if any player has ever tested on this. I'll try to find the post mentioned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SailorWolf Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 It shows up around day 6 to day 9. When it shows up run as far from your base as you can then go back when it stops. If you are out looting do the same. I think it only shows up once now lol use to be a pain in the ass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The helicopter keeps things interesting, so I always set it to come 'occasionally' (I think that's the setting) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ld-airgrafix Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 Does anyone know if it increases/adds number of zombies to the game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does not increase. It just forces them to migrate. However, if a map area becomes very empty due to the migration, the server may be required to create new zombies in this area.
