I think one of the biggest problems in Dayz is that everybody has already seen everything. So the normal Dayz player nowadays is like this: " ah cool spawned in cherno! 70 other players on the server... i better run like hell through cherno so the snipers cant kill me that easy... lol zombies, sweet!... oh cool found a revolver!... lets shoot this guy right there in the face ... hes unarmed :) PEWPEW... run run run run... sniper,headshot,dead!... (RESPAWN) "ah cool spawned in Elektro let's do the same here!... The point is that the players know how many other players are on the server at the moment and how big the chance is to get killed if he plays DZ the way it should be played... Same for bandits/snipers... as a bandit you just join a full server to camp ppl in stary or nwa or Cherno or Elektro etc. And you know the chance to kill ppl there even if they are unarmed is very high... Remember your first days in Chernarus? Your hands shaking, creepy zombie sounds, sneaking, NIGHTTIME!, flashlights, flares. I mean its so fuckn creepy to sneak around in the night, with a flashlight,finding a small village trying to find food in it to survive the night etc... There's not even nighttime anymore... and if there is nighttime you just raise gamma+brightness+HDR so you don't have to use your flashlight cuz there are 70 other players on the server! They will shoot you. Theres's no survival anymore its just Call of Duty with a feature called zombies. Let's imagine there was NO server browser... you could build groups with your friends out of game, so you can join the same server but you dont know how many ppl are playing on it... If there was no chat or playerlist, then there wouldn't be any fuckn bandit campers cuz they wouldn't know if there are ppl on the server or not. Wouldn't it be super exiting to play DZ the way it should be played? Use your flashlight, use flares... sneak into villages, kill zombies, find loot, SURVIVE! it would be something special to meet another player. Not like "OH here's another dude... lets kill him" DZ is a zombie apocalypse simulation! Honestly, If there really was a zombie Apocalypse, why would anyone spend his entire day camping with a sniper rifle, trying to kill unsuspecting and unarmed people for no reason at all? Make DZ a zombie survival game again: One where you don't see shit at night, where you don't know how many people are out there, whether you are safe or not, where you can go, where you can't go, who is friend and who is foe. That's what DZ used to be about, and that's what it should be about. All in all, Dayz's most thrilling experience is its random ambients/situations/circumstances, so why not just focus it more on this unique feature. Give the players everytime they play a new and unpredictable scenario! randomize it, dont criticize it! EDIT1: -Dayz should seperate "QuickJoin" servers and private servers from the list to provide more balanced and fair games. EDIT2: -After joining a "Quickjoin" server your current character will be locked to this until he dies. -You're able to join a "Quickjoin" server if a friend of yours is playing on it, BUT you cant see any serverinfo. EDIT3: -No complete empty server. EDIT4: -Remember that empty "quickjoin"-servers won't be empty for a long time. As the server is near its maximum player capacity, a new one gets created and will be filled with new quickjoin players. Another additional idea might be that to make all characters locked to the server until they dies. So you can´t switch to another server without loosing all of your character´s status/gear. (excluding private/non-quickjoin Servers) This also prevents all sorts of server hopping.
