funky_mish 75 Posted January 8, 2014 It's true that with many of DayZ's features not yet added, and a pretty short time necessary to become fully geared, it's easy to run out of things to do. Inevitably this leads to PvP, which many people don't like. This thread is not for discussing development or alterations to the game, it's for people to post their novel ideas for things to do while we wait for patches. Here are mine: Cross Country Race - Join up with however many people you like, at any pre-arranged point. Then you all race to another point on the map, using any route or strategy you like. Everyone starts with basic clothes (or vest and underwear, you perverts) and no backpack or weapons. Do you take a longer route with more loot spawns to minimise the chance of starving/dehydration/having no slots for supplies? Or a more direct route with the risk of passing out? Are you sneaky, safe and slow, or do you sprint through towns risking zeds and hostiles? Death = loss. Could even cross the whole map. It's a good test of navigation skills, too. Sure, everyone can alt-tab out to a map of Chernarus, but having to do it a lot is going to lose you valuable time. Also, your route is going to need to include some water pumps. King of the Hill - A PvP option against people you know actually want to PvP with you and aren't going to combat log. Pretty simple; get a team together, or even go alone. Arrange on the forum a server, time and location for challengers to find you. Your team tries to hold the location while the others try to take it. I think the shipwreck would be a great location for this. Fight Club - Bare knuckle boxing! Two men enter, one man leaves. With the other guy's stuff. Alternatively, spectators place loot bets. DemonGroover's duelling idea is similar to this: http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/162711-a-good-old-fashioned-duel/?hl=duel So yeah, post your own ideas Here.

Mays (DayZ) 154 Posted January 8, 2014 Seeing how long you survive being bare of clothes/items and sitting (yes, the command) on an airfield. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BL1P 252 Posted January 8, 2014 Stuff to do with each life. Drop a book next to every letter box you find. Collect bibles from churches then go around the east coast giving them to new spawns. Only eat one food type. Only drink from containers you find. Collect screen shots of every billboard I have 13 types found so far. wear wellingtons and a pink hat only and chase people shouting "I love you" over direct. Run through a town with a group of m8s shouting "run run run the zombies are coming". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

angry pineapple 44 Posted January 9, 2014 What about... Find M4 and 2 magazines. Put 2nd mag on ground and shoot it = ruined. Drop good magazine in bushes. Load ruined magazine into gun. Gleefully jog to coast and give to fresh spawn. Follow your new benefactor and what is see what fun ensues! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
