Well I dont really like NPC's just standing there too but I thought that if sometimes (very rare) a NPC heli would crash down near a big city like Cherno and Elektro or other places so that nearly every zombie in the whole city will go to the crash and you have to be in a group to kill all those zombies near the crashsite to get the rare loot of the dead soldiers. Well I would find this very cool :D PS: its very similiar with the old crashsites but I would find it much cooler if you see how the heli comes down and if it wouldnt be as easy as a crashsite :D

I thought that we all get this in future patches and its good, but what I wish is that they change the order of these , see if they hadnt release the Alpha nobody would care in which order they do this but they released the Alpha and now many players want to play this game and they care in which order they get the updates. As I looked on http://dayzdev.tumblr.com/ I can see the team is also working on things like cooking etc. but in my opinion they shall concentrate on the points of the list to release them asap. @Id-airgrafix Thank you for your anwser, I think in the point of weapons you misunderstand me I also dont want to find weapons in every house, cause then they will depricate. I also understand that Chernarus plays in "Russia" but I think also in Russia you should find weapons in a Police station or in some houses the point with the high powered weapons is the difference between almost not existent and not existent for sure they have to be very very rare but in my opinion they shall be in the game and like you said there shall be many zombies so its nearly impossible to get these weapons alone. I aggre with your opinion with realism and food etc. and I think they will do it like this but also I think the other points are more important atm.

Hello Forum, this is my first post but before I start I want so say something about myself I started playing the dayz mod about 1,5 years ago I liked it pretty much but I thought some things were missing then I found Dayz Origins and I have to say that I loved it. Dayz Origins had many things that I missed in the dayz mod (and also now in the Standalone) the mains aspects were base buliding (espacially that you can collect things), a in my opinion more varied map and the benefits of playing in a group which are in Origins bigger then in the Mod and that it didnt took you 4 hours or more to get a working vehicle. I also checked out Dayz Epoch a few Times but I have to say I dont know why so many people play it I mean Epoch hast some very nice features but in my opinion the way of getting loot and all the other things is broken and so Epoch didnt feel like a post apocalyptic world game more like a Arma 2 with some more features. The reason I write this Thread is that I was very confused while I read the Threads in the forum espacially in the suggestion forum and everybody ask's for these little things like other scopes or smoke grenades or whatever. Every Update I wachted the list of new features, changes and fixes and was a bit frustated and now please really dont misunderstand me I know the whole team is working hard on this game and appreciate your work I also know that there are different people working on different things but still I am a bit confused after reading the patch nodes. The thing is that many nice little features get into the game something like different colors for clothes or other little things but I think the order of implementing these things is wrong. I dont know how the most players of the community feel by playing the standalone but I think that it is very boring at the moment. I know the game is in the Alpha yet and im happy that Mr. Rocket gave us the game so early so that we can co-create a game that makes a big part of the community happy. I also have to admit that I didnt read everything in the forums, news etc. so if say something wrong or things like that feel free to correct me. A time ago I read that one player said that Dayz at the moment is nothing more like a nice looking "running simulator" I had to smirk about it because as I thought about it I saw he is right. For me the game feels like this spawn --> run through the map for 2 hours without finding something special like a gun or whatever and then die. So what I want to say is that I wish that first the important things get implanted so the game makes more fun for the community and then you can patch everything like different clothes, smoke grenades and whatever. In the following you can read a list that I made with the things which should be implanted first in my opinion: 1. Vehicles In my opinion this is the thing I miss most in Dayz at the moment it takes so much time to run through the map and guns and things like that are so rare that I often let myself get killed to get a better spawn place near Balota or the big City's also its very very difficult and often takes a long time to meet friends. I know that it is not that easy to implement Vehicles into the new Engine at a moment's notice and that we also would get vehicles in a later update but if we could get something like bikes, that makes us faster espacially near the coast and at places like Solninchy and Berenzino now or as soon as possible that would be awesome. I know that there are also some player who are against many vehicles but I think that if we get Vehicles in a ammount between the dayz mod and origins it would make the gameplay much better and would still be a post apocalyptic zombie survial simulation. (I have the picture of the Walking Dead as a Game in my head) 2. Base's or something to storage things The in my opinion second most important thing that should get into the game asap is something were player can storage weapons, food or whatever because then players can start building something like camps etc. and start collection things which is a aspect for me that makes much fun and would be great for some Teamplay. Also it would solves the problem that if you finally have good enoguh weapons to rob players you dont need to rob players because you have good weapons. A way to implemant this without that much work could be the tents from the mod or the safe's from epoch sure later underground houses or things like this would be much better but I think that this are only little "cosmetic changes". 3. Zombies and Loot System Sure I think this would get reworked in one of the next patches (I dont know in which way the Zombie spawn System changed in this patch) but a zombie game without zombies is just the next cod or bf with surival aspects. I also find the actual loot System terrible I mean its possible that im the only one but I was not able to get a working gun with ammunition in 11 hours gameplay time. I also dont really understand the actual loot system but I think a upgraded loot System from the mod and origins would be fine. Also I would appreciate if we would get a few more chances to get a "good" weapon without walking to Nwaf or Ballota I dont mean that you can find a Sniper Rifle in every building but if you would be able to find something like a shootgun or something like the good old enfield in normal city's that would be nice. 4. More Weapons Im pretty sure this also would get into the Game but if we should get something were we can save weapons, then we need a few more different weapons for this there are also some threads in the forum I think also "overpowered" weapons like a sniper rifle should get into the game but these things should be very very rare and only in places with many zombies. I also want that weapons are rare, a possible way doing this could be something like the Crashsites from the mod or other military spots. Because if these weapons get into this game you will be that much happy if you kill a person who got one of these weapons that you love the game (a aspect that missed in Epoch) also the "I want the best equipment" effect would be there then. I dont know if you feel same as me that weapons and ammunition are a bit too rare atm. Well for me this are the 4 most important gameplay things that should get into the game sure updateing and fixing the engine and netcode is same important but I think that you are working on this. At the moment the Thread represents the way of "how I wish that Dayz looks" but if you give me feedback on this thread I will try to adjust this thread so its represents what the community wants also I would be very very happy if a staff member from the dayz team would read this maybe. :D Sincerly your friendly Bandit Magerquark.
