    On the Coast
  1. Hi my name is skymuss, I'm 23 years old, I study Computer Science at the university of Passau. I already play this game for about 2 weeks and I want to give the community my ideas and the ideas which I Collected form other users. Here are my other Ideas: Basic Ideas Item Ideas Special Ideas 1) Zombie Loot Now the most reason for killing zombies is, that they are very annoying. If the developers of DayZ would would equip zombies with items, like some clothes, many players will kill them. 2) Woodensticks I think it would be cool feature, that any Player can get wooden sticks from old rotten trees which are on the ground. Wooden sticks should also make damage to zombies. 3) Earthworms or Bugs In many survival movies, the actor had to eat earthworms or insects. perhaps the developers can add an button for searching Earthworms on the ground especially in the Forrest. Probability to catch one can be 0.15 %. 4) Wolves and Bears I think in the Forrest should be more content, player interaction or dangerous animals. these features would give dayz a more realistic an survival feeling. I think you should also find good items in the dear stands. 5) Option: Open the Refrigerators and Cupboards In many houses I saw refrigerators and cupboards, but I was not able to open them to look inside. it is also very frustrating for me that in most cases, I found good items at the ground floor and not in the second floor of many houses. 6) Skeletons When I first played dayz I often asked me, where you can find some skeletons of the dead inhabitants. In a post apocalyptic world there should be many of them. I often saw blood splatter on walls but no skeletons or even dead bodies. 7) Edible Pumpkins When I walked trough small cities I saw many pumpkin fields but the I could not eat them. for new players this feature will be great. 8) Refilling Plastic Water Bottles Why should a player not be able to refill a plastic water bottle ? In real life Conditions or in a post apocalyptic world there should be a lot of them, especially in the garbage cans. 9) Gestures or Signal for Peace In many PvP conflicts there should be a signal ,that indicates that a player is friendly. Developers could implement this feature with Gestures or white flags that can be found in cities. Players could wear this flag on the top of their backpacks. 10) Player Suicide If a player is willing the kill himself, he should be able to do this, perhaps with a knife or an other weapon. 11) Stalactite Cave or Underground Aereas I think 90% percent of all players will play dayz at daytime, that is why player will not use their flashlight. If the developers would add stalactite caves or an underground area with a very good items. This feature will force players to go in the dark caves. these places should be very dangerous with many different kind of super strong zombies. 12) Running on Roads Faster (Running Speed Balance) I think players should be able to run faster if they stand on a road or on the cost. In the Forrest the maximum running speed should be reduced. 13) Mosquitoes and Diseases In real time survival conditions Mosquitoes can be very dangerous. They can transmit diseases. Players which walk near swamps or lakes, can get diseases. 14) Farm Animals It would be very cool, to see farm animals who survived in the world of dayz, like Pigs, cows, chickens, dogs, cats or rats. 15) Fog I think Fog in some cities or near the cost Areas would be a very interesting feature for future, especially to protect against a marksman. 16) Thirst (Balance) If I run very fast trough the map of dayz, especially on a large wide open fields, my character should be more thirsty, because of the sun. If a player walks through the cold Forrest, he should not really getting thirsty. 17) Sunburn If a players just walks through open wide fields without a cap or something else, he should get a sunburn. 18) Forest Fires If a player can fire trees to make smoke signals, for example with a matchbox, players could interact between a long distances. 19) Zombies with a broken Leg If a player first hits a zombie, the zombie should randomly (50%) killed or break his leg or something else. The zombie could be still alive, an creeping on the ground to attack the player. 20) Sleeping System If a player walks trough the map, he has to be exhausted and needs sleep. in real life conditions very human has to sleep for a while. the developers can add a system that a players has to sleep perhaps 3 minutes per 1 hour. 21) Increase the probability of finding a Map I played this game many hours, but I just found once a Map of cherno. I think the probability of getting a map should be increased strongly. 22) More different kinds of houses When I walked through many cities, the many houses looked out of the same. The atmosphere and style of the game would increase, if some houses are destroyed or ruins.

  3. Basic: My DayZ Standalone Ideas Hi my name is skymuss, I'm 23 years old, I study Computer Science at the university of Passau. I already play this game for about 2 Weeks and I want to give the community my ideas and these ideas which I Collected form other users. In the first topic I will give you my main Ideas For the game, in the second topic some item ideas And in the last topic some gamely ideas. Here are my basic ideas, which would make the gamely feeling better. Here are my other Ideas: Basic Ideas Item Ideas Special Ideas 1) Imprecise Map: (Medium to Implement) I never played the DayZ mod, so in my first 10 hours gamely, it was very hard for me to get some orientation. I just walked form city to city To get better items and tried out what I'm able To eat an drink. I think it would be a good idea, to give the new players, which first respawn at the coast, a Map, which is very imprecise. Hardcore Players could throw this map away. If a player looks at this maps, he will just have the knowledge In which sector he currently stands. The regular map Items can still be in the game. Nothing would change The feeling of finding the real map item. Here is a screenshot: 2) Zombiehords (Just more/not the AI): (Easy to Implement) When I first played the game, I had no weapons and I Thought that it will be very hard to kill a zombie. After I found the fire axe or a gun it was very simple to kill all the Zombies, because in the cities, just where a few of them. Instead of one Zombie, the developers could insert more of them. For example 4 or even more, then the gamely would Become more interesting for many players. Here is a screenshot: 3) Randomly Item Respawns (Hard to implement) In many different dayz sessions I saw player, who just walked to the military bases to get the guns or other imported items. The most of them, didn't looked around and went to the cities. I think the gamely would increase if the developers would Implement the spawn rates of guns and others good Thing more randomly. That would have the effect, that players have to search all over the map for Good items like weapons. In always found the good Items in the same type of houses. 4) Bring People more together (Medium to implement) In the most of my DayZ sessions I walked hours Just alone on the map. Sometimes this was very boring for me. I think a good new feature Is to implement a signal which says "Here I am". The developers for example could add "Smoke bombs", in perhaps 5 different colors. Other Players can see the signal (the smoke) over a long distance. 5) Rivers with bridges (Medium to implement) On the whole map I never saw any rivers or bridges. Instead of designing cities, it would be great To have some rivers and bridges, because every Player has to cross the river to go to the north. This feature would be very interesting because Players automatically come together on the bridges. This feature would also give new players an good Orientation point on the map.
