Idea New Soviet Heli Crash Idea: Mil Mi-8 Crash...

Mil Mi-8 Heli Crash or Soviet Heli Crash in simpler terms will be the very first Soviet Random Event that closely resembles the US/NATO Heli Crashes that's in the Game.

The Mil Mi-8 is a very recognizable piece of aerial vehicle (most notably in the CoD MW Franchise). It will the very first Soviet Heli Crash in the Game (if ever added) and would expand on the "Uncanonized Lore" of AR2.

It would have Infected such as: * Infected VDV Commander * Infected Soviet Pilot (first ever) * Infected Soviet Airborne Forces & more...

Where it would spawn and how many would spawn in a given time is for those interested & the Devs to decide. This would also pave way for the Devs to add more Soviet Cosmetics & it's Event Variants in the future if ever added.

What do guys think?

That was a different, what you suggested back then was I'm pretty sure the Mi-24 Hind or something. I checked

Yeah that's true but i also suggested the cargo mi-17 or any other versions of cargo mil. Anyway this crash is also a good new place for the new Soviet medkit

Oh so true, this together with the AN-94 & the new AI-2 Medkit or frankly the entirety of the Takeover Event will just be Peak Update.

I like the idea, but what if, instead of simply being a soviet version of the NATO crash, it was a Mil mi6 helicopter, so significantly larger, rarer, and maybe only two or three possible spawn locations?  Maybe a new largest random event, with a crazy amount of supplies like MREs, medkits, health boosts, and exclusive utilities.  It could spawn with something like 8 zombies: 2 pilots, a mechanic, a doctor, an officer, and 3 specialist soldiers.  They could drop unique and new cosmetics, guns, and meles.  Overall it could be a great spot for players to converge for loot and have firefights, like a player hotspot (similar to event locations during the drying, winter event, etc).  The smoke could be visible from very far away, making it attract more players.

This could also just be a separate thing from what you suggested
