Private Evans 1303 Posted January 30, 2014 (edited) I am wondering if the coast road (highway) will get more love in future map updates. I want to see wrecked evac convoys, military checkpoints..and a lot more car wrecks and stuff all the way from Svet to Kamenka....with groups of zeds wandering on it :) ...would go well with the amazing coast map updates like the swamps.. thoughts ?

Zedicologist 162 Posted January 30, 2014 Yes im sure theyre will be a lot of stuff like this added later on like it was in the mod with different cars in the middle of the road. Im sure this will come with time. Just have to be patient. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DeatHTaX 1217 Posted January 30, 2014 The only big establishment I see is that plane crash building. Yeah when I first saw that I was really excited to see what else was in the game The only other one I've found is the ruined bus with the half buried bodies around it (which is totally creepy btw) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
soulfirez 901 Posted January 30, 2014 Ah just reading rockets interview seems there was only 1 map artist before and one part time one now it seems they have 3 more as they are working on some major changes.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yap credits to Senchi who did an awesome job so far only supported by Ivan Buchta ( as far as I know). But with the new north which is nearly a third of the complete map, Utes and maybe another island ( for the prison?) they defenetely need more manpower to add all this needed little details and to improve some of the older parts like the coast road or Skalista island ( we need an old asylum on this btw !)

Spooky to see some roads with rows of knackered cars pointing away from the town they were used to escape from 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
worst2first 71 Posted January 30, 2014 This is an excellent idea. I would love to see a kilometer long traffic jam of ruined and abandoned vehicles. I would also like to see more houses and towns in the far north. They've added a train station and some industrial buildings which is a step in the right direction but we need more.

spartanxapathy 203 Posted January 30, 2014 ?? I'm curious as to why you specifically mentioned the coast highway, would it not be better to add more towns, etc. in the North to entice players to actually get away from the coast? While I agree it could use some more interesting set pieces, I think they should work on the large areas on the map that have roads, but no villages/towns.

DKR 104 Posted January 30, 2014 coast road? everything is just off the coast. 3 major cities, now 4 actually...two airstrip and an island that sure will be updated one day. inland and up north sucks. NWAF is a fun, but unnecessary destination.Way up north...looks like they'll be buffing, so in time, the map will become geographically balanced with cities and loot.Micro details like props just aren't priority right now.

While I agree it could use some more interesting set pieces, I think they should work on the large areas on the map that have roads, but no villages/towns. if you travel the north of the map you will notice that the layout for a lot of new cities etc is already there. Beside that it was confirmed some time ago that there will be new structures and even entire new cities in the north. So no need to worry about that. The coast region has been revamped already ( swamps, Balota camp, stranded cargo ship, new city etc) but the main road of Chernarus leding from the very north to the south through all major towns and even the capital is still very boring and empty....no sign of people trying to escape out of the cities..or check points etc etc... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DirtyscumbagLith 270 Posted January 30, 2014 they have the blueprints to make this game visually awesome- i really hope they do. crash sites, buildings about to collapse and/or do collapse if too many people in a bad floor, ruined cars/jets/, fallen buildings. maybe even big pile of burnt bodies (the charred smoke/ash effects your player)- so much potential.

hells high 676 Posted January 30, 2014 (edited) I like the evac wrecks and smashed up cars and general "filling", but loads of roaving zombies might not be a good idea; new spawns have enough trouble in the cities and towns. Also the northern highway has some really nice layouts for future cities. I generally hang out up there. Edited January 30, 2014 by Hells High 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sacrdandprofne 100 Posted January 31, 2014 (edited) This would be fantastic!Take the "chaos evidence" atmosphere of L4D2, with all its destruction and creepiness, and throw it on the Chernarus map! Edited January 31, 2014 by sacrdandprofne Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sacrdandprofne 100 Posted January 31, 2014 I like the evac wrecks and smashed up cars and general "filling", but loads of roaving zombies might not be a good idea; new spawns have enough trouble in the cities and towns.Maybe counter that with a higher spawn rate for lower-grade melee weapons? Just for a quick jumpstart of defense. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
