Dayz sa campaign?

[Blondedash 403]

After dayz is complete and arma 3 is fully done could we get a campaign as dlc? dlc to not stress rocket and his team out and with bis's help I could see one being made. a single player or co-op ordeal.

And what would you propose it consist of?

And what would you propose it consist of?

a story of you ending the infection with a friend by your side or something like that. using fan stories or a paid writer to write the details, I suck at stories.

maybe even a campaign to progress online?

for instance when you join a server you have the option to do the story mode with in that server. and your progress is saved only to that server.

and of course the possibilities of bandits and heros helping or not helping.

[methr1k2dop3 323]

give you like side missions or scenarios in the world to complete while the multiplayer chaos is happening.

Q: I have to ask: Will there be a single player option with Day Z standalone?

A: Probably. But I am unlikely to work on that. Later once this is successful we might get a team to do that or we will open it up to the community.

in response to the answer well that is why I typed DLC.

No...

The multiplayer should never be held down with stale crap like that

[dulix11 731]

NO.

No.

Also no. I don't want to 'win' DayZ. It should stay as it is.

[leviski 2152]

I could understand putting in some custom missions file (because ARMA is famous for that) that gives you a 5-10 hour game but it should not have ANYTHING to do with the online multiplayer

(maybe you could even release a way to make custom missions later in the SA's life but that's a completely different topic with so many twists and turns questioning exploits and hacking

[methr1k2dop3 323]

i think adding small objectives than just surviving might make it a bit more interesting.

for instance have a random spawn of citizens that need food.

help them or kill them.

maybe not a full blown cinematic campaign.

give people stuff to do on low pop servers.

different servers could choose to have it or not to have it.

[Blondedash 403]

NO.

No.

well DLC is optional and I knew someone would go like this I thought this through ya know some people like campaigns and movie grade story telling and methr1k2dop3 no the two should not be connected.

yeah you're probably right.

i just get bored sometimes, i collect enough beans and weapons to supply a army and just sit there like wtf do i do now.

would be nice to have something to do than go hunting for bandits.

i was thinking of something kinda like how WoW and other games are set up

there are pve objectives to do in a pvp world.

The only DLC I would like to see would be things like new maps, more locations etc. not a storyline like Fallout where you purify the place and stop the infection.

fine how about you try to stop the infection but die in the process and feel for the person remembering what their life was like you ain't going to get emotions like that in multi-player.

[dappadan95 332]

Just no

[Blondedash 403]

i've been thinking and this has some advantages in sp compared to mp and some disadvantages. I realized there ain't going to be a happy ending or people will be pissed, I can't think of an ending that doesn't suck balls, an advantage it has is a more in depth story could be told compared to mp. I realized most of that feeling though could be put into a movie it being a video would be kind of annoying. I didn't think the environment through though and can't think of anyway for it to not be linear so would break dayz's sandbox setting. i'll continue on later.

[spiry3_ 50]

maybe a storyline on the infection,how it started and how it progressed...

and have some characters,that then when you play online,you could find stuff that once belonged to them or they interacted...

[mat9813004 8]

Has anyone seen "The Mist", it has an isolated survival narrative that could be interpreted within the DayZ game.

[mat9813004 8]

Such as deep, deep into the map there are massive, strange things that are very lethal and to be avoided unless approached with a coordinated attack with some kind of appropriate incentive to do so...Also, mist. I digress...

[BSB Jimmy 360]

i originaly thought no. but just a single player story, maybe 1h long, could be quite fun. wont take too much time but could be fun if done right. maybe even have a part where you build a small camp which could be found in multiplayer as an easter egg.

*Spoiler* is that the one where at the end he shoots his son and then the military come. if so i have, if not im going crazy.

Although it sounds good I don't think I would ever play it.

[dulix11 731]

How about we stick with the casual multiplayer game and scavenge for supplies and kill each other rather than following a quest?

Also what happens when you 'beat DayZ'? Does the server shut down? The infection stopped, so whats the point in continuing?

Not a good idea.
