Yes!  Looking forward to playing this update.

[Michaelvoodoo25 3120]

Sorry, I know nothing about this. Could you tell me what map this is on? And are bases destroyable?

I could have fun killing bases by the look of this!

Epoch is available for several maps.  Not sure if you can destroy the bases though.

[axles 14]

We support many maps with and without traders. The new bases are able to be destroyed. Wouldn't be much fun if you couldn't cause any havoc....

[BlackDalia 95]

Epoch is amazing, been playing it for a few weeks now and its trully a grand experiance. Brought me and alot of old dayz timers out of retirement! Keep up the good works lads at Epoch!

[Statik (DayZ) 2695]

The building a house thing looks pretty awesome. But was it necessary to add this after my base is complete? Now I have to buy another plot pole to make a house.

Plot poles are now only needed to keep others from building on your land. You can build without one.

Best way is to talk to your provider, they can help you. If you run your own box then you can head to dayzepoch.com we have everything you need to get a server up and running.

Patch 1.0.2.4 will bring many things. But the one I'm most excited about is this.

 

No more will you need to search out flat land to build the perfect base. All modular base building parts will now no longer conform to the ground.
