The reason i like cars is when other people have them, true, because back in a mod, people in cars are always the first one that died, i like hearing that sound from the forest runing out on the open and spraying a hell out of their tyres, gladly, jumping out of cars is so slow that i alredy killed 3 while last one presed eject :) So yes, let them add some vehicles, ahhh, good old dayz in mod ...

Ok so this one time I was driving around when my tire got sniped by a dmr or some thing. I hop out and take cover then 2 dudes started coming around some corner. Oh shit I thought this is bad. So I took out the one satchel charge I had on me and put It next to the car I then waited for the 2 guys to be really close then started runnning I put a timer in case they killed me. I ran to what I hoped was a safe ways away and blew it up. I killed both guys but also screwed my self over and I ended up getting killed. Still they did not get my car so that was cool. But ya we want vehicles they change how the game works and next to a sniper or heli they are the end game.

I've seen this a lot during previous jobs, people who are actually upset by the idea of a sandbox title that does not force you into any specific gameplay or objective. A narrative, or defined "final goal" was needed for this specific type of person to even consider playing a game. DayZ has no defined "end game" - the end objective is what you make it. If you choose to hide out in the woods and live off the land, that is your choice and it is a valid form of gameplay. However, if you seek to acquire the deadliest of weapons, or build your campsite up out in the woods and hunt vehicles, it is -also- entirely valid. Perhaps you want to live on the coast, murdering and eating the survivors you come across, yup you guessed it, valid form of gameplay. It is entirely possible that DayZ by its very nature is not the type of game for you, and that is entirely okay. You cannot be everything, for everyone. :)

That was never an issue if someone hides something hard enough they should be pretty impossible to find. The problem lies with helicopters having xray vision through heavy Forrest and instantly being able to spot everything in the map in 20 minutes. Flying vehicles opens a can of worms and just brings forth more problems.

Helicopters were brilliant. The only problem with them, and all vehicles really, was how you could fly/drive them way out of the map to hide them so they could never be found.

There is not going to hundreds of vehicles....they will be rare as fuck and they will take a lot of time and resources to repair/maintain. At least it will give some more end game content to those who are not content with shooting new spawns in bero. YA dig?

The only vehicles we need in the game are Lada's, (VAZ), we already have everything in the game to fix them, a hammer and an adjustable spanner.

Limited land vehicles will not ruin the game . Helicopters certainly can ruin the game. They ruined the mod.

Cant count how many "oh shit" moments vehicles have caused our group. Most nights your objective turns into vehicle resucue when you blow a tire, or run out of fuel in a bad spot, or even worse, being shot at by other groups. I also dont ever remember having a feeling like finally putting that last windscreen on the russian, getting it off the ground and flying out of devils castle. I am pretty excited to relive alot of this in the SA.

You haven't played the Mod have you? If you did, you would know this is far easier said than done. Vehicles were the prime example of Murphy's Law. Edit: What I mean about the Mod is, a proper Vanilla one without 5000 vehicles at the ready.

I think more are just glazing over that fact in disbelief, most not coming from the true vanilla Mod where cars were a bitch to acquire and maintain. From what I have read/heard, vehicles in the SA are going to take even more of an effort. Oh the unhappy ones we'll see after vehicles are implemented, even though they were forewarned about how much of an effort it will be just to get one going. Never-mind maintaining and actually keeping it for more than a day.

No I don't want neither helicopters or any kind of vehicles in game In fact the devs might as well label this game as finished and It would be Ok I already got my money's worth. Srly I'm close to the first thousand of hrs and stil can't get enough (haven't seen a single hacker yet btw) /s

I do. I think it'd be fun to work on getting a car running with all my friends, then driving around in our shitty car with completely mismatched panels and doors of every colour. Building a character and having certain items that are reminders/products of the story we've forged over many hours of dicking around in DayZ is part of the fun for us. I think it'd be cool to have the same with vehicles.

I think vehicles should be abundant, but hard as fuck to fix. I mean, Chernarus is a ruge "modern" region, what kind of region doesn't have at least 1 vehicle in each town? You know, those farm trucks and old crap. I would like it to have a lot of vehicles because it would be realistic, but also hard as hell (a lot of rare itens needed) to repair/find stuff to repair it so it gets kinda dificult to see them fully working.

Well, I agree with you and I don't. I think heli's and airplanes may be a bit much, but I think cars and such will be good. Remember that there will be many different playstyles. Some people will still stay on foot and hunt and live off the land. Why? because they will remain quiet, and stealthy and not be seen by other players. Some will use vehicles, and set up large base camps and go on raiding parties. Why? because they enjoy looting others and using brute force to overwhelm their opponent. I could go on about this. There are many different playstyles, each one offering distinct pro's and con's. Vehicles will simply add more ways to play the game. Also, all of the fun-running and such wont be gone. Remember that in a post-apocalyptic world, vehicles would be hard to maintain. Constantly needing gas, parts, etc. would be a hassle. I'm sure many people would just spend 20 minutes running instead of 20 minutes gathering parts to then spend 5 minutes driving. Everything we know and love now will always be there. Sorry my post is so long, but now im done. I hope you understand what im trying to say. Thanks for reading.

It's been mentioned time and time again that this game will not be like GTA or Epoch with an abundance of cars readily available to you. Vehicles are going to be few and far between plus will need maintenance and fuel.

I know,ya'll want cars and stuff like that,but in my opinion that will ruin the game,... Why? Well,i love to run around the map,explore,go hunt and do stuff like that,imagine how will berezino and other "war places" look like once they add choppers and airplanes,..i mean,that will be the mess... And there will be no more fun wasting time on running all the way to North-west airfield,no more fun running around all day...i mean,it will all be gone... Alot of people want cars,but are you quite sure about that? I mean,i don't know about you guys,but i prefer exploring...

Your comment "Less is no more, MORE is more" sounds like a refugee from a cheap fortune cookie and begs the question, "More of What?" Do you maintain that any addition to a game is good because it is MORE? How absurd! If DayZ isn't right for you then perhaps you should shove off and find a canned linear save the world game that doesn't require any thought to navigate. I second Caboose187's motion! Is Caboose187 correct when he alluded to your possible need of a ridged set of canned missions, tasks, and quests to hold your hand through a game? Sorry charlie those kind of games are BORING...... they are the PAST. Some people like games that are not dumb, comfortable, predictable,and shallow no matter how visually stunning they might be or how many freebies the players get handed to them. Dumb is Dumb! Shame on you for wanting to make DayZ LESS than it is and can be. Honestly I'm surprised that the notion of imagination went over your head by such a large degree sport because connecting with a players imagination is the key to immersion and a primary goal of game designers. http://www.edge-online.com/features/how-player-interaction-makes-dayz-a-fascinating-social-experiment/ Absurd comment of the day, "With no vehicles to fix or helicopters as endgame, combined with broken controls and broken zombies....The game feels freaking empty." 1) The Zombies are not broken IMHO they are simply not perfect (yet). Do you deny that strides have been made as a result of NavMesh for path finding? SO you claim that the addition of Hoppers, increased aggression, persistence and re-spawning have not added a new dimension to the game? 2) I have no serious problems with the controls Empty??? Use your imagination if you have one sport and gather some allies together and clear out a nest of Jerks in Electro or Berezino on a crowded server. You'll need some AK or M4 men, snipers, a medic and a Leader..now you have a mission..get hot. And by the way what makes you think that the average Joe in the game could master the flight controls of a realistic virtual Helicopter? And tell me how is the mere possession of a damn helicopter an endgame event? How would that go? You get the chopper up and running, you've learned to fly it, located parts for it, you've repaired it, serviced it, fully fueled it and then you fly off to never never land outside the quarantine zone to live happily ever after? Or will you get shot down by the UN and burn to death because you didn't have the right code loaded into the IFF system when you tried to penetrate their restricted airspace? :lol: .

You May Be LOST, but You Will Never Be Alone. The Lost BoyZ clan is proud to present our very own DayZ Mod server! As the clan keeps expanding, the clan also grows in it’s ability to provide an infrastructure for everyone to enjoy and play in. At first, we started with only a handful of servers, but with the emergence of kind players consistently donating both their time and money while other players donated their skills in the forms of video recording, photography, editing, and even provided more complex competencies such as programming and scripting. With this in mind, our DayZ Mod server would not have been possible if it were not for the efforts of Talindor. Talindor is a respected member of the Lost BoyZ clan and one of the admins for our DayZ Mod server that has a particular skillset and the resources to make our DayZ Mod server come to life and change it to suit the needs that many people have been requesting from service providers with implementing mechanics such as Banks, ATMs, currency in the form of coins, A.I. adjustments, convenience mechanics such as deployable vehicles to ease the stress of travelling, and even environment changes to make the land of Chernarus a living, breathing world. Many of you who are reading this are possibly thinking about one group in particular when reading this and that is Custom Combat Gaming (or commonly known as CCG) already provide these servers and service to people.This is only the partial truth and say that our servers are not only more mechanically exciting…(finding the proper words for this one) We have coin currency. We have Banks and ATMs just like the CCG community. However, unlike CCG, our Banks and ATMs do not have a currency limit, which all CCG servers sit at a currency limit of 250,000. This makes it frustrating when newer players and experienced players die and unable to keep any of their hard earned cash that hinders general progress. An added bonus is that when a player establishes a base, they are able to transfer currency with the use of ATMs through the system we like to call “Online Banking” so you can transfer what you want, where you want. Banks are placed outside of trader cities and spread out to ensure that the server always have a healthy amount of Player versus Player no matter where you go and enforce that there are still consequences in the post apocalyptic world.

I think you guys are being dicks to people for pointing out there is nothing to do in the game right now. It is true. With no vehicles to fix or helicopters as endgame, combined with broken controls and broken zombies..... The game feels freaking empty. Anyone who won't admit this is completely full of it or just enjoys being rude to anyone who questions current Dayz SA. Im really astounded by the fanboyism.

Could've sworn I heard somehwere that scooters or ATV's were going to be the first vehicles.

Hello! Hows everyone doing? I hope your all well, so today guys I have been tasked with recruitment. I am here to attempt to convince you, the people, to come and check out this new Dayz Overpoch server. This server has plenty of room for everyone if it runs out of space we will just double the size! This server has dedicated members working round the clock to meet whatever the server and players as a whole require. The server is expected to have 20 registered members within the next couple days. The server just underwent the first and only wipe (unless certain conditions are met in which case their may be a rollback, backups are made every 15-30 mins so don't worry about major setbacks.) A lot of money is spent to make sure that players always have the ability to play on the server, which is why we have gone out of our way to make the dedicated server run at its best. We are also constructing a forum of our own for members to interact with members and other staff. The faster you join the greater your chances of securing a great spot to build your clans base. The server restarts about every 4 hours with a Day/Night cycle, and the potential return of the helicopter crash sites complete with working animations. This server has made the decision to allow Some Armored Vehicles to be implemented into the server an example being the BTR-60. All we ask is that you drop in say hi, see if everything's to your liking and if it is, bring your friends along for the adventures you will undergo! The servers TS is 192.99.100.30 The servers IP is 192.99.100.30:2302 Swift Servers Forum: http://swift-servers.net :beans: Make sure to tell them Dusky sent you! :beans:

Yeah, I got no power over that, though in a way it's still something of a suggestion, and most of the time a suggestion on here turns into a discussion. From my understanding vehicles will be much harder to repair than they were in the mod (I mean tracking down spark plugs, harder). An unpowered bicycle will be the simplest thing they can add to get the foothold on vehicles, you'll have the frame (vehicle itself), and tires, possibly addons as well (baskets, sadlebags, headlamp) but that can be added on another patch. After they get the bike working (more or less) smoothly they'll add mopeds, scooters, motorcycles ect to get the more complex repairs and fuel mechanics in. Then they'll work on 4 wheeled vehicles and their physics/mechanics (part damage and the like) and so on.
