I had a idea of sorta there being back story's in dayz so like you can't Just hope to hop in a helicopter and expect oh ya I know how to fly a helicopter and take off well with back story's you would have to choose like aspects of your character so like you choose strong hard working bad temper and so on you could have a back story of a ex criminal or something deepening on what you choose you would be assigned a back story with like 48 combinations or so so you could be ex military and have excellent skill in gun marksman ship and stuff and for what you guys are thinking flying helicopters how would this have to do with it well one of the back story could be pilot and or you can find books and stuff to help you learn how to fly a helicopter other wise you would still be able to fly it you just won't be very good at it for a while depending on how long you fly and same goes for mechanics so you could be a mechanic back story and be good at fixing vehicles very well So this is my idea i have a poll on what you think if there should be or not be back story's be in the game. BEFORE YOU SELECT YOUR ANSWER!! READ THIS!! Its not giving you a back story its giving you the tools to create that back story , But in the since of assigning a title that's all roll name is just a title and what skills you will be a expert in.

i suppose that is seems like a good idea

Look what i posted just then it was to see what you guys would say to the idea.

Ok maybe not preset classes but what about like you get a book that is like a journal And it sorta explains like how you got there or another aaand is generated by what you choose as your backstory

It still appers yes is winning

I suppose.

Like i had said it is giving you the tools to create the backstory

Well it appers that Yes is winning

Wow the poll has been neck and neck

AP_Norris Yes exactly You customize your own backstory.

Yes you should have read more i go into more to more detail on my idea i just have a hard time on explaining it that is all.

Its not giving you a backstory it's giving you the tools to create that backstory.

I should also say it would explain like what your doing in chernarus you know like your a local mechanic or your a pilot that landed and got stranded there when the apocalypse happened.

Exactly. But to answer some of your qustions is having a role its just a title what it means is just what skills you will be good in and it would bring in other pepole who do videos and have storyline to their videos it would help make that in a way helpful to them.

Yes but there are other essential rolls all rolls are essential in some way there would be aircraft mechanic But in what your saying you don't need to have a pilot roll to be able to fly so everyone would be able to fly but if you read it would depend on how long it would take you to start it up and your skill on doing complex manuvers and that would be it.

but i do see all of your guys point But with this in the game it would help form comunitys and groups

Don't be a grammar Nazi korsbaek, but what i mean by the bad temper is to choose what role and skills you would have so bad temper you might have a higher level with a gun if you are a criminal because of the bad temper you would be trigger happy.

Ya another thing i was thinking is like you would have things such as for the choice bad temper or likes to follow a leader to choose what role to what skills you would have with it.

Ya sorry i was just sorta just trying to explain the whole idea i have in my head.

When i say like what what i said i don't mean to hard but i mean like sorta hard like it would take you precious time to start it up like if you had a pilot background it would take you like 2-3 minutes to start it up you would select a option(or in the case if dean changes the scroll menu then you would press assigned key to that) so when i say back story gews I mean like attributes you would have like ex criminal your attributes would be like gun level would be sorta low to medium level max level would be like 10 so you would be like level 3 or so with a gun unlike ex military would be like 5-6 and criminals stamina wouldn't be very high compared to ex military you would be like have a higher stamina because of your military background and like mechanics would have a low sorta stamina and maybe a level 3 weapon expertise or such and then for doctors they would have a poor level in weapons expertise because they haven't really fired one before but they would be very well in medical care because before the apocalypse they were doctors and such but all attributes can be learned and taught and can get higher levels in these attributes so max level would be 10 or what ever if dean likes this idea goes with but if you don't understand ask me a qustion and i will try to explain it even more.

So looking foward to being able to help with this development It will be awsome Quick qustion: I am guessing the dynamic construction will be implimented in ether beta or full release will it be like underground construction?

I had another idea That there Were radios and that players while they were in their bases they could ask other survivors in their bases If they need something or just wanted to talk in stead of having This side chat.

What do you guys think

But it would be a good Idea that Way becuase If someone tuned into that channel Well you better change the channel or else your screwed

I had i suggestion For the underground Construction in dayz standalone When your making the underground part you would have to put Wood supports along the walls to keep the dirt from coming down but some time you could put like a explosive on one of the supports so you would collapse the tunnel in times of great measure so you could protect yourself.
