Place for modding in the SA

[Granok 4]

Hi everyone !

First of all thanks you Rocket and your team for this standalone :)

 

I heard a lot of things about the place of modding in the SA, people saying that it will be impossible, others saying "yes you can do want you want"

So I started to search over the web and I found nothing clear :/

 

I currently rent a Dayz Epoch server that I customed a lot 

(made slow really-hard-to-kill zombies, and some stuff that me and my friends likes a lot),

The point is : I like to mod !

My server is unique, my community like to play the way I customed the metagame on my server (with few snipers, hard end-game, really expensive NVG)

 

I'm afraid that we lost all this atmosphere when i'm gonna switch to a SA server.

 

Before I create my server Me and my friends visit many many servers,

One thing strike us : Most servers are unique and every admins have their own way of playing of dayz(full pvp,full pve, pve/pvp mixed, etc...)!

And I thing this is a great thing !! As you can see in the movies or in TVseries there is many point of view for a zombie apocalypse (Walking dead, 28 Days later, The night of the living dead, Evil dead 1 etc...), so I think it would be sad if we can't mod our own way.

 

So here my question (finally) : What is gonna be the place of the modding in the Stand Alone ?

On Steam there's a little blurb about opening it up for modders (in development)....

So yes, you'll get to do your heli lifts and self bloodbagging :P

Modding wont hit for maybe another 6 to 12 months.

I was more interested in loot rate or zombie modifications ! :)

but I think this is good news for me if we can do self blood bag we may be able to do a lot of stuff :)

Thank you sir for you awnser !

Granok, you message me personally when that slow-hard-zombie-server on SA is up.

Would love to be a part of that, there can never be enough hard heroes.

i hope they consider what can be modded carefully, epoch and overwatch kept the mod alive, 1000+ vehicles and spawn with dmr easymode made the mod shite, and soaked up all the players until the mod turned into a generic clunkier battlefield.

soaked up all the players

 

A very important point.  People are often saying "If you don't like xyz mod, don't play it!  Don't play on that server if you don't like abc rules/additions!".  The fact is, those servers suck up a portion of the playerbase and segregate the player pool.

'A portion' being all of them. It's nigh on impossible to find a populated vanilla server in the mod because everyone's in the 10k vehicle/easy-mode servers. I really hope DayZ SA doesn't go the same way...

Agreed. You should only be able to play modded versions that make the game -harder-, not -easier-.

I do agree with you but 1000+ vehicles and spawn with dmr easymode can help people to increase theirs pvp skills 

 

And I like these servers, they keep most of kids/cheaters away from the good one's :)
