Player spawn /Item spawn (weapons)

[D3r1L 7]

I know it is an alpha! But my ideas dont need weeks of development just some tweeks.

Player spawn

I am the only one who is not happy with the spawn on the coast (always the same  site)? 
I hate it so much if u are lucky u need 5minits to get a pistol (not with ammo), if u are unlucky u need to run and scavange for 45mins (this is the tiem to get yourself to the big airfield ) or more.
Why we cant spawn randomly in any city on the map? It is boring always the same scene.
So we could avoid that the fresh spawns get killed by camping bandits.

Item spawn(Loot)

U see a building and u know what is in there because always the same spawns in there , all are running to the same city or airfield where the guns are. Why cant be the guns and military spawn evrywhere randomly.So  u where forced to check the houses, because u have a chance to run away from an M4 or Mosin etc.
it would be more fun , so all would have a chance to get a weapon and shoot back at bandits. 
Weapons should spawn with random ammo in it , not full magazine but at least 2 or 1bullet in the chamber.


Who is thinking like me?

Maybe you are right,it would be more fun if we found m4s in civilian houses.But it would definetelly not be reallistic.

Why would a civilian carry an m4 in his house? Dayz is going by the book,it's a zombie survival simulator,so it has to be based on reason

and not fun-factor.

No one can think like you cause everone is unic. Yeah i hop only cause i know spawn points, if it would be comlitly random i would have no reason to hop

Well it not realistic if m4 spawn on barn and find a medkit in building site sooooo disagree :) if you want that kind of loot system try another game .

[Winterfressh 1]

This game is about looting and scavanging. Go and play cod or bf if you dont like running and scavanging. Random weapon spawn? Hell no! Do you have an m4 full with ammo in your house? In your neighbors house? So what are you exactly complaining about?

[bad_mojo (DayZ) 1204]

I made a thread about having no ammo at military bases, and distribute it among the civilian areas. You still need to go to the military areas to get the weapons and gear, but then you have to scavenge for the ammo.

Maybe he's not european. Than that will be more likely possible...

And why u think that u are the only survior out there ? maybe someone was in the bar killed and the weapon left there , there are tons of reasons how a weapon gets in a treehous , or just by an abandoned building . u are thinkin thet u are the only survivor out there this is wrong.

And the hunting outposts? No one was hunting? why the outpost? Where a hunter is there is a gun!

If an zombie apocalips comes every body where going to get a weapon , robe stores and stuf like that , U should watch a bit AMC -s Walking Dead . How i mentioned there are tons of reasons how a gun gets in to a house far from the airport.

i know this is Russia , but just imagine there was kids and wifes , and maybe some hero went for searching his family he died and the weapon is there it is so easy.

Think a bit out of the box.

Once there are more weapons (hopefully more civilian weapons) spawns will be easier/more realistic. The majority of available weapons would be civilian ones, so pistols, rifles and shotguns should be more common than m4s and other such military guns.

 

I should also remind you that Chernarus is an ex-Soviet area, so there will most likely be old Russian guns from the 70's and 80's. M4s would generally not be around. This would also mean that guns aren't generally very common. Yes, you would probably find a shotgun/rifle in a farm, but it's nothing like The Walking Dead -.- Guns would generally be kept out of civilian hands.

As the guy above said it is more than possible to find such in a house. i wouldnt mind a little spread to civilian areas but i actually want to have finding a gun etc harder less guns at bases less ammo lol scavenge harder for your gear lol

I dont say nothing about that i want an m4 in every house! It dont matters what tipe of fire weapon it is!

LOL and who the f**k would care about u carring a gun in a zombie apocalypse -.-

This apocalyps  dont happened from monday to thursday it was a longer procedure , The Walking Dead is the best model for a game like this.

You obviously didn't understand what I meant... BEFORE the outbreak or whatever, nobody would really have guns, unless they were farmers, policemen etc. Guns wouldn't just be readily available. I would say The Walking Dead is a bad model because it's the wrong area and the wrong scale. It's supposed to be over the period of over a year. It would have taken them weeks to get guns and enough ammo for them all. 

 

Also, you said yourself "You're not the only survivor". All the easy to find guns would have been taken, by your logic. All I'm suggesting is that guns spawn in areas that make sense in quantities that are justifiable. Ammo should also spawn more spread out. A few mosin bullets in a few houses outside Cherno would make sense. 

[D3r1L 7]

I think we miss understood each other. 
i dont want guns in every house but a village should have at least 1gun with minimal ammo.
And the loot should be mixed up! If i look at a house i know what can be in there , this is wrong ,i know what type of houses i have to search to find  what i need.

I agree they should add WAY more spawn points but they should be all over the map. Granted they should NOT be anywhere inside a city, military base or airfield. That's just cheap and lazy.

...I think it`s pre-ALPHA and there is no way we can imagine how it will look like in a few months.
