It's likely going to be a new access point for an upcoming trial or story arc.
Sometimes the Devs will accidentally "leak" new features like that into the live build before something is fully finished.

It could be connected to the SSA - like the way they added a Longbow sub to Founders' Falls for part 3.

Maybe a transport point to the far side of IP, just like Nerva got one.

Yes that's always possible, but such a transport point would not serve much benefit being stuck roughly in the middle of the zone. It'd make more sense for some kind of "intra-zone" transport to be linked from the extreme north end to the extreme south end of IP. Of course they might consider IP big enough to warrant a set of 3 points north, middle and south. |

I was thinking possibly the same thing, although Lothic raises a good point about it not necessarily being the ideal spot for it. Maybe they figured it was a good midway transit point between north/south/west IP and Terra Volta?|

(They'd presumably also have to add other copter transit spots, rather than assume you take the tram and hop onto a copter pad at some point midway. Anyone notice any other new helicopters in any other zones yet?)
In any case, I'm inordinately tickled by finding something new in the game that no one else seems to have noticed or known about. Not something easily accomplished in a game with so many people, many of whom have more time to play than I do (though I wish it were otherwise.)
Just saw this tonight while running tip missions in Independence Port. There is a Freedom Corps helicopter on a barge just a little north of the Terra Volta entrance that I'd never seen before. When you click on it, it says you cannot enter at this time. No one else online at the time seemed to know what it was either.
Anyone else seen this? New Trial location or something?
