Trip system ?

[oXd 0]

Hi, i donno much about scripting or server side things but, is it possible to "implement" a trip system ?

since there alot maps already, and we can find vehicles ... could be fun to trip around maps in the same server without leave a server and join another one ... just loading the map by a trigger at end map (around map limits, main roads and air).

Thx. have a good one.

At first I thought he ment a quick travel system, i.e. teleporting, but I see what he means. I kind of wondered about this myself because in one of his standalone presentations Rockets mentions that he would like to do other maps in the future, DayZ America, DayZ Kiwi (rainbows everywhere and people dancing :P) I would love for these to all be on the same server so my survivor is the one exploring it all and not two or three seperate survivors but then how do you get from russia to the lower 48 or even New Zealand in a post apacolyptic time without taking a loooong ass boat ride and I doubt anyone will be piloting large commercial aircraft with enough fuel to fly across the pacific...maybe stoping off at DayZ Hawaii ;) I'd love to see it but I dont know how they'd do it.

Yeah i know some games like wow there 4 or more worlds and u can travel around then without server change (or maybe it swap server on loading process?), or with a diferent hero ... and why not work for some npc mercenary to get a "spot" in a boat or submarine (babylon A.D) :) to travel to another continent. And just go by car, helicopter or plane to near places.

I believe you need to get a chopper working and be able to travel to new map- if it's an island.

I could also see where you fix a train and the tracks which then allows you to go travel to another land map zone in DayZ.

As for it making sense to go from one map to another if it's several countries away,..we could simply just ignore the idea that it might be impossible for the sake of traveling from map to map.

I thought you meant tripping up and falling over......yeah it sounded fun.

But different maps with the same character and gear? Why not?

I mean more like a travel system, to go around other places without leave a server and join another ... and with same hero(survivor).

We can use roads to go to near places, and wait for some rare moments with a limited spot transportation to go to far distances, so players can fight for the spot and protect the transport against bandits.

I was thinking about the S.T.A.L.K.E.R NPC traders, offering players jobs (missions) to get a reward (like a guarantee spot on a transportation), why not money ? so they can explore another places etc ... but besides mutants and anomalys we have zeds, and bandits also .... and for sure a better engine to play, cuz stalker was kinda ........ u know lol.

The way dayz is now ... pvp is the only fun... in 20mins u can geared up and fight anyone. I beleve if we have more objectives, and reasons to group up, the game ll be more fun.

thx... sry my poor english.

could you imagine if there were designated inlets between maps how camped out by groups they would be
