Random events....

Recommended Posts

It would be interesting to see various random events occur ie., cargo chopper/planes crashing full of goodies or rouge military squads roaming about periodically so that you can kill its members for loot. Even nonintetactive events such as chopper/plane flybys.

Who says random events have to be a bad thing? As long as they don't involved human NPCs, the spirit of the game remains intact.

Random zombie mobs, anyone?

Random events should be rare. For example we don't want a cargo chopper full of goodies crashing every day. And that random npc squad I mentioned should be even more rare. It should pay to pick off individual units to get single "drops" like binoculars or occasionally a good weapon. Maybe even acquire uniforms. I kinda like the idea of a random zombie mob spawning at a random location and migrating to areas of high player population density

I'd rather see this stuff be driven by players. I think we should stay away from computer controlled systems as much as possible.

There is a set of private hive servers which have exactly this. I don't remember who it is though.
