Ranks/titles

[Gdaddy22 299]

Idea is simple. The Longer you survived, more things you did - different your rank is

Example

 

You just spawned - You don't have any rank

You survived for 3 days, You are now a survivor 

You survived for 10 days - You are now a veteran

You killed more than 5 people - You are now a bandit

You killed more than 20 people - You are now a killer

You helped more than 20 people - You are now a hero

You killed more than 50 zombies - You are now a zombie slayer

You killed more than 15 bandits - You are now a bandit hunter

(...)

 

And so on. Only visual, no bonuses. For getting a rank, you can get a special piece of cloth, like a veteran bandana, veteran mask, killer mask, etc (maybe you get a veteran mask in your invetnory, but you don't have to wear it, you can wear it if you want to, and it doesn't take your normal inv. slots)

 

It would add some cool new content to the game, making it more interesting, also it would add a little value to player's life (ex. if you die as a veteran you're like "AWW DAMN, I WAS A VETERAN, I MADE IT SO FAR"

 

Also we could see people's rank on direct chat, next to their name (Ex. xZombiKiller98 (Hero): Friendly ?)

 

Any thoughts ?

Looking past your examples, the idea is pretty good.

The reason this didn't/wouldn't happen was because the similar system earlier on in the mod wasn't necessarily what Rocket wanted.

I don't really like any sort of rank tree, not as immersive to me. They're great ideas, just not for dayZ.

I like the idea of ranks, but how will it show ? And what happens if i Kill 5 people in self defence , am I a bandit then?

the amount of players to kill/things to do and the ranks themselves are debatable, it's just main idea

I wouldn't mind a leveling system based on xp Nothing else..

 

So for instance killing players, helping players, time survived killing zombies etc etc all add xp to your level or rank...

 

I'm not asking for bonuses for the higher level you are... (No perks or anything that gives you any minute advantage what so ever over a level 1 player)

 

Just asking for a Number based on experience.

 

I like leveling in games it gives you a motivator to want to play more like in most games...

This defeats the purpose of the game entirely. Having ANY type of ranking system would be horrible for dayz and would turn the game into an even bigger kill fest.
