You and 3 friends spawn in DayZ. You're on TS with them, so you tell each other where you've spawned. You pick a location to meet and each head off on your own pre-adventure adventure to get there. It's like a prologue to the story of your eventual survival with your group. You talk to each other and relate the goings on of your particular experiences as you go. Perhaps one guy has a worse time of it, and the meeting location needs to be shifted closer to him because he's in trouble and needs your help. You rescue him. You're all now at Mogilevka; let the real adventure begin.

Maybe the first night you play, the entire time is spent trying to meet up. What's wrong with that? It makes your next play session all the more enticing.

That's my first DayZ experience. It was night, running along the beach, how do i get this flashlight to work? Where are you? Is that you? Are you running with that flashlight?

It IS part of the game, but i can see where you would like to team up. If you would ask Rocket this question he immediately brings up the stream snipers. He's thinking people want to go through steam and click the 'join server' on the player that that want to join. Only to end up next to your buddy.

That wouldn't work well with DayZ. I did like the idea Rossco posted

I can only see it working one way. You both choose to spawn together and you get whatever random location the game gives you just like now. Nothing else to it. That's what I would like to see so when we start with fresh characters we can team up straight away.

I'd be happy to see a spawn with party members; as in, fresh spawn. But spawning close to alive party members? No.
