jordanmammo 19 Posted December 22, 2012 Yeah I was thinking about adding some armored vehicles into DayZ & Standalone.Not anything overpowered but stuff we could expect in real life if an event such as DayZ would happen.Maybe add some Pickup Trucks with PKMs & Machine Guns mounted to the roof.Also being able to replenish ammo to the Huey currently in DayZ. I find a bunch of 100 RND M240 All the time and I can't add it back to my heli for when we spray the guns. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

aksuduud 64 Posted December 22, 2012 So armored pickup trucks or armed pickup trucks? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PracticalTactical 164 Posted December 22, 2012 They have a pk pickup already in ARMA so it would not be hard to put into DayZ. Actually considering chernarus mat have been in a civil war before the outbreak (assuming it follows somewhat the story from ARMA) technicals like that would not be out of the question. Even if no civil war I am sure police, military and even civilians would modify existing vehicles to be better equiped to survive zombies. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
enforcer1975 1111 Posted December 22, 2012 Even if no civil war I am sure police, military and even civilians would modify existing vehicles to be better equiped to survive zombies.Considering what players would do in game i bet police, military and civilians would use them to kill eachother rather than shoot zombies...

bfisher 561 Posted December 22, 2012 I like the idea of more options rather than less. But I don't think we want Cherno to look like Black Hawk Down Somalia either. So maybe you would have the option of mounting an M-249 or other machinegun to the back of a pickup or adding armor plating to vehicles at the expense of speed.No armored fighting vehicles like tanks or Bradley IFVs (or BMPs I suppose since it's former Soviet republic).

Very Ape 748 Posted December 22, 2012 (edited) The following armored/combat-purposed vehicles should balance each-other out.1) Civilian or military jeeps and pickup trucks with attachable weaponry. Unarmored, carries few (2-4) but quick and lethal. Urals are the exception to the rule, as they can carry more passengers and are a bit tougher. Very rare. 2) Small, very old armored personnel carriers with no attachable weapons. Slow, but shields well from small arms fire. Sustained fire from a LMG could take out these rusty giants, but zombies can't do shit. Perfect for carrying multiple passengers in dangerous areas, and a great addition to any convoy. Extremely rare. 3) Battle-bus. The perfect combination. Unarmored, but metal sheets can be attached to protect the hull and passengers, to a certain extent. Can also be equipped with some weapons. Buses are easier to find than the former two vehicle "classes", but must be heavily customized to serve it's true purpose. And then there are the unarmored, combat-ineffective civilian vehicles such as the sedan. Easier to find. Edited December 22, 2012 by Very Ape Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
