Military is still active.

Military is still active.

Ok so here's what i'am thinking of. I want the Military to be still active. But the Military are trying to save people but they dont know that your in the country.

I would like the bombing to bomb each server twice a day on a server.I would like it if random Military planes comes out of no where and starts bombing in random areas of the map.

The percentage on bombings. In areas.

70% cities

40% country side

50% coast side

20% in lands

10% Airfields

30% In inland villiges

For at least 2 minutes.This makes players more caution es in what they do in city's or any other areas. When the bombing starts players will hear the planes coming, If they hear the planes that means that the bombing will be near.

So the military is trying to save people but decides to carpet bomb the countryside? No sense make.

[DaleCooper 8]

Military firing napalm over cities and villages would definitely add to the game, especially if you need the radio to know which coordinates that are safe:)

[harley001 315]

NOPE. This was aleady suggested. It would be cheap, I don't want to die because out of nowhere bombs came rolling it. Maybe it can happen in the distance where no players are at? Oh and dud bombs, ones that didn't go off can be looted and used for....something.

Like the ideal but it should not be near any players.

Sounds like a typical Big Government program to me.

The War on Drugs

The War on Poverty

The War on Zeds

[aksuduud 64]

Uhh...

After 2 minutes of bombing there wont be many buildings left standing in cities.

[Candylol 82]

that would be crap first you can die easily and lose all your gear and second if they are saving people why are they bombing the place , the buildings might still have people in it hiding or something.

but if you want bombs they should but like tear gas or some sort of gas and you have to try and get out of the area before you get contaminated.

p.s how did so many military solders survived????? , is there a story behind it??????

[Chris529 380]

maybe it would be cool to just have helis/jets fly over quickly but no interaction with the player, doing a recon sweep. I liked the idea of jets bombing cities but people might die and it would get frustrating.

Though it does make sense, the cities would have the most zombies and whatever military is left would want to try and cut down on number of zombies. But that would probably only make sense early on, not when the country is already swarming with zombies.

[beastoverlord 574]

So... they are bombing random stuff to clean up zombies? That seems like an efficient use of fuel, manpower, and explosives...

I guess the OP imagines remnants of the Umbrella Corporation advising the Army on zombie cleanup.

[burritoman259 593]

carpet bombing cities to keep the infected away at first signs of infection would make sense but after that i think all military would have either deserted and formed bands of survivors and bandits

or stayed with the military and evacuated to some where with environmental factors that keeps zombies away, the ocean, underground or even perhaps to some isolated island.

after the cities were lost I think they would have learned that infected like to congregate in big cities and left them alone and only visited if they were desperate.

[Sutinen 635]

No.. That would be the cheapest and lamest possible way to die. Seriously.

[ProfessorKoble 17]

Ok listen. This is a military activity. I see you guys complaining about losing your gear and randomly dieing.

Well What do you think would happen in real life in a zombie Apocalypse? A Helicopter would go around looking for survivors and if they dont find anyone. They bomb the heck out of the cities and country side because they dont want the infection to grow. DUR USE SOME COMMON SENSE....

[logan23 118]

If the military left the zone, they are not planning to take it back when the Zed Virus is not cured and I'm assuming that where ever civilization is, they are still working on a cure or ways to kill the Zeds off.

Now if you want a military come in, that's cool but they should be characters controlled by DayZ Live Team where they fly in with a chopper and might fire on other choppers, or enter locations to get military gear or medicine.

Having real people control them are the key.

DayZ Live Team could also play helpless characters who need help, and the question is, will players kill them?

As for the military bombing an area for no reason but to kill them,..seems to be a waste of ammo. They would want to lock up their borders and save the explosives in defending their outpost, where ever it is (not in game map)

[leettari (DayZ) 133]

Insert China in OP and it makes a lot of sense suddenly - for China, at very least.

Though agreed, seems a bit wonky idea in overall.

[enforcer1975 1111]

Invite a hacker, meteorshower included...no bomber needed.

if you don't get out of the way in time and get killed then bad luck, deal with it. Twice a day = 2 times every 24 hours. It would be rare for someone to even see one of these jets fly over let alone the jet flying to where a player is on the massive map and drop a bomb on him.

[starwarsfan@gmx.de 450]

I highly doubt that even if any Military is still active that Chernarus would be a high priority target for an Airstrike. And even if it was they'd just bomb the shit out of it until nothing is left, not much of a game there to be had then.

Bad idea is a bad idea.

[valmorian 1]

I like the logic of the 10% on airfield bombing, isn't that a area you need to clear out before start bombing the hell out off city's?

Just saying....

beans for you and a lawl

I like the energy, but the idea seems a little misplaced tbqh

[colekern 1364]

No. Why? Because the only thing that should controlled by the computer is the zombies and the loot system. Let the players do the rest.

[Candylol 82]

what about players doing the bombing instead of ai doing it will be more fun
