sek7or 0 Posted December 25, 2013 So society breaks down and zombies take over. There is going to be murder. Dying does indeed suck, but honestly I like the realism. Here is my thoughts on realistically 'fixing' it. Town:Why cant there be 'the last town' like a stronghold of some-sorts. Makeshift high fence, Maybe an island. Its the only place we humans have left. This would still leave murder in the wild, but it IS the wild. In town could be controlled by 'guards' and 'watchtowers' that keep tabs on your actions in town. The town could survive realistically by players doing 'work' by manning the walls and guarding the town vs zed. Could implement some sort of rations wages or something. A town could also add a way to store loot(banking/house/hotel room). If you wanted realism your character could leave it in a 'will' to your next character. Which would make dying in the wilderness slightly less painful. Other then the hell walk to find civilization again. Guards:Guards could attack/jail players for fighting/instigating a fight. Fights out in the wilderness could be 'spotted' and reported. Guards could deal with the problem if he comes to town.Second idea spurring from the spotted fights was wanted posters. Killing could land a bounty on your head, dead or alive. Pvp:If there were two+ towns, There could be 'zone type' end of the world pvp. Not a problem, just a dream.

Publik 404 Posted December 25, 2013 Protip: Find a group of like-minded players and make this town yourself. No need to take directions from an NPC. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cywehner1234 582 Posted December 25, 2013 When base buidling comes in I wont doubt someone will do this. Also zeds do not respawn, which is nice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wolfsburg62 66 Posted December 25, 2013 Too scripted. Not where Rocket wanted to go. If I wanted to be chased down by guards I'll just play Skryim. This is DayZ, there is no rules. It's the wild west of games and I like it just the way it is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mos1ey 6301 Posted December 25, 2013 As above - if you want to set up a stronghold get a clan and go for it. There will never be NPCs, "safe zones" or scripted events in DayZ though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sek7or 0 Posted December 25, 2013 To be honest the community kills the game for me. My real life friends don't want to waste the money on a alpha. Everyone else kills on site. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PracticalTactical 164 Posted December 25, 2013 Protip: Find a group of like-minded players and make this town yourself. No need to take directions from an NPC. This here. I shall take no such direction from a NPC. To be honest the community kills the game for me. My real life friends don't want to waste the money on a alpha. Everyone else kills on site. I have encountered several people and none of them killed me on sight. Only one got aggressive and he only wanted me to give him his M4 back. I didn't even cap is ass though. You has got to use that mic and be real tactical about it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
metal_jackyt 0 Posted December 27, 2013 As one that's been blind sighted by people, even some ive helped I can both say I like and hate it. Easiest solution, pve only server for people that complain and don't want that deal. I know you might think that's just silly but some people want that a lot of people actually. Somewhere needs to be a safe haven at least for newer players. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
