What Type of Events?

[novogeek 253]

So here is a question to all players out there, what type of events would you like to see take place on Private Hive Servers?

I am not trying to compete with Survivor Games or anything like that ... I am just thinking about a way to get a bunch of players together to complete a task or storm a bandit camp or whatever.

Would just like to hear some thoughts on this ... it can be as random as you want. ;)

So instead of replying to my own thread, I thought I would add to this thread ... with two chained ideas that I came up with while sitting at work. :)

Chapter 1: The Great Escape

Survivors (players) are hold up in the town of Cherno and Elektro in small groups of about 4 or 5 individuals. All hell has broken loose and the town is filling up with Zs. The survivors hear a radio broadcast that the town of Gorka offers a safe haven and all survivors should make there way there as soon as they can.

The players must now escape the town they are in with enough food and drink to last each survivor at least 5 meals, as they are not sure how bad the situation is out there. They will also need medical supplies and weapons (this is optional if they so choose) and will have to be quick about it. Night time is fast approaching and they don't want to be on the roads at night.

The towns will have the normal loot points and maybe the odd surprise here and there. Most of the server vehicles will be moved to the cities or close proximity and will be at various levels of repair and use.

The players will have to make choices about scavenging what and taking what and whether they should spend the time fixing a vehicle or just hoof it. Admins will play the role of helpless victims who have a tendency to die right in front of other groups with a shed load of Zs in tow.

There will be no PvP and no Bandits ... just a whole lot of players having fun and trying to survive.

What decisions will you make?

Chapter 2: Everybody Needs a Hero

The players make it to Gorka and enter the town only to realise that the town is overrun and the radio broadcast was a week old and was on repeat. Now the Admins take on the role of the Survivors stuck in the town and the Players are now going to be the Heroes coming to the rescue.

The players hear an emergency broadcast from the victims inside Gorka, calling for immediate assistance ... there are woman and children (well Admins acting like children) and they won't survive long. The players will start at Balota or NE Airfield, they will need to decide whether the hoof it on foot, take a vehicle (which will need repair) or take air transport (which will also need repair). They will also have to take medical supplies and provisions as some of the victims have been stuck in Gorka for a while. There is a time limit however ... so players need to make critical decisions that could affect whether a victim survives or dies.

Once again there is no PvP and no Bandits.

Chapter 3: Exodus

This is still a work in progress ... but the idea here is that players will have to make there way from Gorka to the NW Airfield ... as they heard rumours that there is a flight landing in a few hours that can evacuate X amount of people. There are also rumours that a group of Bandits have been spotted at the airfield and are laying in wait for the plane for their own purposes.

In this chapter the Admins will be Bandits ... they will have to gear up just like other players and will actually be at a disadvantage because they are not allowed to leave the air field at all. :)

This time there will be PvP ... but we all no Admins suck at shooting. ;)

Anyway ... these are just my thoughts ... it could also be expanded to say that the flight from Chernarus is heading to Lingor (or elsewhere) and more chapters can be written.

It would be cool if players record their footage and we can do a nice Movie Style Playback for those who don't take part.

Oh well ... just a thought ... I thought it would be cool ... but that is just me. :)

Edited my post to include my own ideas ... would like to hear what any of you think. Don't worry I am wearing my "Flame Proof" underpants. ;)
