I am proposing to create and establish a protection force within Day Z. I have no military background, and so would be happy to delegate such matters to others should they wish to become a part of this. But I truly believe we now need a force establishing within this map. Hundreds of players strong, this unit could establish safe havens around the map and offer mobile squads that could respond to a call for help if necessary. This would work on a rolling shift format unless people wanted to participate full time as it were. We could be hired out. The possibilities are endless and open ended. We need to establish such a response in order to address the concerns of those who feel bandits have reduced their passion for the game. This will not lessen any gameplay, nor is it a "care bear" approach. In fact, I beg to differ and propose that such an idea could ignite creativity and excitement through the game. If those bandits feel they are strong enough, they can attempt to steal our havens from us. Now consider that firefight. I believe, firmly, that this is a natural progression. I am simply testing the water fit candidates and interest. If I have piqued yours, or you believe you could run some element for me, please do not hesitate to pm me. I leave this up to the community, but I am going ahead full steam with this.

Those gypsies are well known for their zombie survival skills...

A lot of people are pushing for a temporary fortification option. That would be immense.

I'm trying to establish a police force. Of sorts.

How's it going mate?

Is like to see fire play a more prominent role. The ability to start a small fire with collected scrap could come in useful for group location. Of course, it brings the risks with it too.

I want to see group play enhanced and rewarded. I want to see settlement establishment made possible. I want to see zombies that run in straight lines.

Haunting. Just amazing. Really hits the nail in the head.

So it's going to be realistic in that you will only be able to "shout" or "chat" in your immediate local vicinity. You can't just sixth sense your way around the world anymore like some omniscient being. It does make it dramatically more difficult, but then we all cried out for realism. Here it is, stark and grim and unforgiving.

I'm hoping to counter some of the cynicism in this game with good old fashioned teamwork.

I'd really like to establish a hundred strong armed protection force inside the game that has the experience, desire and firepower to establish safe havens around the map and respond en masse to requests for help...with enough balls to take out anybody who tries to trap us. I'd be really, REALLY interested in setting this up if we can enoug interest?

The troll was just in my server. Bitching, oddly enough.

That's gotta be upsetting...

I'm almost always friendly...unless I really get suspicious...if you don't speak for instance or I get the sights on me for too long.

Excellent...will do mate. I bob around UK6 and UK9 mainly...anything that runs 1.7

Like a hobo...

Same way...unless I've got a few buddies (which can be rare unfortunately) I often indulge in a little case scenario such as yourself. I started by hiking through the woods from Kamapobo last night toward Msta. From there, I would gather supplies and head out towards the north east in search of the last reported sighting of a friend... Really gets you immersed. We should buddy up and detail some of these scenarios for a journal?

Another thread complaining about a code in it's relative infancy still. Rock on.

I saved £10 on a multipack of mountain dew. Now I'm thirsty and lonely.

You PLOUGHED through those zombies. They bought the FARM a second time there...

Tremendous post that emphasises both the core premise of this mod and taps into the hope of a community for such a potentially unparalleled experience. We could define, shape and take a huge share in how "our" world evolves here. It's exciting.

Sounds a little mass market, casual gamer, lowest common denominator affair to me. But I'm an ageing cynic.
