My suggestions to developers/community.

[JANDC 0]

Good afternoon,

 

I would like to give some suggestions to the developers and for the community to see and give their opinion.

 

I have not bought the game yet because it seems a bit raw even tho it seems fun at the same time, but i have been seeing some videos and streams, so i will leave my suggestions and some explanation.

 

 

My suggestions are: (SOME OF THEM MAY ALREADY HAVE BEEN GIVEN BY OTHER MEMBERS)

 

 

• DIFFERENT LEVELS OF DIFFICULTY ON THE SERVERS    
• + ZOMBIES

I have been seeing that the main problem on surviving are always the players, but the zombie survival is a theme that is really on "vogue", so it would be nice to have servers were the zombies were the real problem making the players to join instead of only killing each other.

 

•  NIGHT MODE when the zombies come out to hunt!

I think it would be interesting to make the night different!!! At night you would have to be extra carefull with noise, you would have to make your shelter during the day because the zombies would come at NIGHT in large numbers! For the ones that explore the night the drops could be better or it could spawn unique itens during the night. On a zombie survival i bet people wants to survive to zombies not just to other people because we already have GTA and games like that to shot other people, and rust to survive, but i see on dayz has an unique potential.

 

•  HORSES, CARS, WTV

Another problem that i have seen when i log on streams, are the long times that it takes to move from city to city as a viewer i can go to the bathroom or the kitchen, but to be there clicking to run during 5 minutes is probably boring.

 

• ACHIVMENTS ON STEAM

I think is always nice to focus on doing something while surviving.

 

• HORDES OF ZOMBIES

I have seen some hordes but not kite often (never seen one live on a stream just in videos). AND again my point is to survive to the zombies not only to be concerned about the players but to need to build a shelter to protect urself and ally with other players.

 

• SERVER OBJETIVES

The server could give global objetives to the players like a daily mission where you could find more itens.

 

• IN GAME CURRENCY

I think you could farm in game currency to buy itens that only changes the look of your char or the colour of your horse for exemple ( it would be bad to buy weapons or other stuff that should be farmed by players, you shouldn't have advantage over others for having more "gold")

Allow players to buy new looks for your character like a different beard or clown nose wtv

 

• SERVER PROGRESSION

Level the players on the server by their equipment and increase the difficulty accordingly so u never get bored on surviving.

 

So comment as you will, hope you find them usefull

 

My best regards and have fun with the game!

Most of the things you suggested do not have a place in DayZ and will not ever make it in the game - I suggest you read up a little on what vision the developers have with the game before wasting precious energy on suggesting things that will never make it into the game anyway.

Thanks for your ideas and seriously no offense:

But you should play the game before you try to improve it ^.^

 

You are right in the point, that Zombies has to become more dangerous though. But this point is allready announced.

Dude buy the game first then make suggestions, all your ideas are really not necessary compared to the fixes required now [players falling through walls, zombie animations, zombies not spawning loot, no vehicles]
