timedance 120 Posted February 27, 2013 (edited) Hello folks!! / Dear rocket!!I think it would be a nice suggestion if we can build houses of wood or something...I think this will make more fun for long term - and people have other options for longtime-play..for example, you have to make wood and to strike stones for building....building will take a long time - and a few steps....first step ground, second step walls, third the roof...you also can store things in there - you can lock the door....when you leave server, the building will be stable... - and also other guys can find it / destroy it(only by rocket launcher or something) / plunder it...what do you all think about ?thanks... + please go for it :PgreezEDIT: IT IS POSSIBLE!!! ...it could be like this >> http://www.dayzplus....tructable-Items Edited February 27, 2013 by TiMEDANCE Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joe_mcentire 2074 Posted February 27, 2013 (edited) simply no becauseWhat would happen if everyone does this?What would happen if everyone builds several houses and every new that joins the server will do?just think about itit is the idea i like...but the huge problem is the engine here Edited February 27, 2013 by joe_mcentire Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
novogeek 253 Posted February 27, 2013 Just put your tent near some of the log piles and pretend it is a log cabin ... maybe park a tractor next to it ... :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
timedance 120 Posted February 27, 2013 but, in standalone it says, there would be base building? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
novogeek 253 Posted February 27, 2013 (edited) but, in standalone it says, there would be base building?Yes ... but I don't think they mean in the sense of log cabins and flower pots and little kittens sleeping on the welcome mat. I do stand under correction, but I think it is more on the lines of defensive positions and protection from the Zombies who want to eat your kittens and poo in your flower pots and wipe their butt with your welcome mat. :)*ding* Question: Do Zombies Bowels still ... errr ... umm ... Bowel??? Edited February 27, 2013 by novogeek 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joe_mcentire 2074 Posted February 27, 2013 but, in standalone it says, there would be base building?they said they could think of something like this. you really have to watch out, they almost never said something will be definitely in the game. It is something they are going for. But of course there are some unknown constants. i also would recommend my thread which tries to find out that unknown constants a little bit: http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/125449-how-to-handle-property-the-issue-when-being-offline/#entry1202285 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Karnesh 21 Posted February 27, 2013 I like the idea, but then it would need to be say 50 regular people only that could do this on the server and no one new could build for it to work, as Joe pointed out it is a good idea, but it would seem difficult to go through with it. However, on another note, if the devteam built cabins in the woods all around, with possibilities for storage would'nt that also be something of interest? Yes you can be robbed blind, but survivors already do that with every tent they find, and even sometimes troll you by destroying your tent for fun. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thesodesa 99 Posted February 27, 2013 I'm also going to shamelessly plug another thread where player bases are discussed.http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/125758-why-make-instanced-or-underground-bases/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
