If You Could Add Anything To DayZ What Would You Add And Why?

Recommended Posts

I would have different buildings, change of pace is always nice....where the hell are all the places like these:

 

Shopping Malls

Movie Theaters

Amusement Parks

Airport Terminals

Boat Marinas / Harbours

Gym / Pool Centers

Casinos

Night Clubs / Strip Clubs

Museums

 

And all the other small businesses a city would have....I mean c'mon I"m sure Russia has more then the basic emergency, grocery, and housing buildings in every city. I think these places would be a great addition to the game eventually :)

* Horse's to ride on. Must poo every 30 minutes, occasionally throw you off and get scared at gunfire and bolt off even with you on top. Only gets used to gunfire once it has experienced it on many occasions, be it from you being shot at whilst on horse back, or from the player firing weapons near the horse, chasing and taming the horse each time it runs away. The horse will get more "used" to gun fire with each training session. Eventually the horse will become battle hardened, will start wearing eye-patches, smoking cigars, give his opinion on economical matters and even gallop upside down while spouting one liners. (see below picture)

* In extreme cases the horse will become so battlehardened (a mixture of painkillers, morphine and cleaver use of burlap sacks and gas canisters will speed up this state of mind, though your horse may choose to run for extended periods of time aimlessly for no apparent reason) and may try to ambush players and even vehicles with his free loving comrades. (see below picture)

* If your character happens to be called Clint, and is wearing a poncho and sombrero, your horse is now invincible and has a gatling gun attached to either side of it. Horse now only smokes cigarillo's, and spits slightly more often, usually into a empty metal bucket conveniently placed. Keeps a .44 Magnum in case a bambi is "feeling lucky".

* Perhaps this game should now go in the direction of a horse simulator

* Man made traps  ie bear traps, or rope trap that catches a persons ankle and hangs them upside down from tree, building, lamppost etc

* Underground sewer system

* box of matches + gas canister + garden hose = man made flame thrower (you heard me)

* Customization of cars, ie be able to reinforce it, add heavy V-shaped metal bumper guard for mowing down zeds and players mad max style, attached guns behind front lights, swords or metal drills that come out of alloys, shoots flames out of back, drops oil slicks and bananas, turbo jump, parachute system because james bond, batman hook shoot drive up buildings, barrel roll

* Towels and plastic bags for clothes

* Supply drops

* NPC airlift from a random location for a very limited time for a player lucky enough to spot the craft land, and reach it before its take off. Craft will fly to a small medical facility with restricted airspace, to find rare medical related loot.

* The ability to put your friend with broken legs into a wheelbarrow, and push him around that shopping mall while he rides shotgun quite literally, blasting zeds and foes alike while you push and steer. Teamwork! (see video below showing real zombies from 1970 before they was all killed irl. Start at time 1.28.48 if you please)

* Wheelbarrows!

* Through gnomish engineering, turn that wheelbarrow into a wheelchair hybrid you can push your self around in!

* Wheelchairs

* harley davidson with tripod attachment for 2 people in total

* Ability to attack zombies with cream pies then spray them with water to add further insult to cream pie related injury's (see video below showing real zombies from 1970 before they was all killed irl. Start at time 2.11.20 if you please)   

* Swords

* A mace on a chain, cus we like to get medieval sometimes.

* Mexican sombreros

* Hawaiian shirts

* One player drives the car, the other sits in the open boot/trunk, shoots and fire DIY explosives! (see video below showing real zombies from 1970 before they was all killed irl. Start at time 1.33.00 if you please. Watch for 2-3 minutes)

* Cheap 1970's music

* Beards

* Duck tape + twigs and branches = pretty awful camouflage that makes a lot of sound when you move, might entangle your legs and feet occasionally and generally hinders your movement. But hey its camouflage without the camouflage!

 

Warning the below documentary capture's real life as it was in late 1970's urban America. Many rebels died to bring us this information.

In all seriousness, it is probably because the metropolitan areas we see in Chernarus are in actuality not that big. Look at Cherno, biggest urban area on the map. Based on the size of the urban sprawl and how long it takes to cross it by foot, it would appear to be smaller in land area than my home city, which is home to 90,000 people just within city limits alone. My home city does not have sprawling edifices like you describe above, what it has is rather modest in size (besides the harbor, being the largest fishing port on the East Coast of the US has it's perks)

 

Face it,either the amount of land shown in Day Z is very small (which is isn't), or the developed areas are very small, which they are.

I would like to see bicycles implemented. One of the most, if not THE most, efficient vehicles ever invented. It can carry you for a long ways at good speed with only a relatively small energy expenditure. Also, you can strap a ton of shit to it (Ex: Ho Chi Mingh trail in Vietnam).

bullet proof vests! To protect from those pesky bandits

There is one, it's the press vest. Though more variety would be good.

Ok so no one get angry at me but I would like to see a full line of "Western" clothing i.e. Dusters, Hip Holsters, Chaps, Boots, and some tobacco products that can be used to relieve some stress off the character, oh and also Marijuana that would act as painkillers to relieve pain but make you hungry.

Oh and my favorite a Single Action Army Revolver, comes in Nickle and Gold plating, Blued and Wood, and Some beautiful Gold Silver and Ivory (very rare) variations. (Chambered in Colt .45)

First of all, everything that they will be adding.. well at least what's missing that is. After that, I would add in:

 

1. Hot AIr Balloons.

2. Ability to lose a limb and survive, and wheelchairs/crutches.

3. Bullhorns (loudspeaker)

4. Cigarettes, Alcohol, Narcotics + effects of using them (temp.) - like using morphine/painkillers makes you drowsy, etc..

5. Working phones - Payphones, house phones only. (learning the correct #'s could be big part of it)

6. Seasons. - can be set server side so its regional (not too extreme, like massive snow.. just cold/hot/rain/fog/cloudy,etc.)

7. The need to "use restroom", under threat of ruining pants if ignored. ;)

That is all.

 

realistic ballistics , realistic damage, realistic gunplay.

 

No more easy mode sniping.

I would add the option to hack up zombies, which means:

  • you can only kill them by a headshot with a gun

or

  • cut of single body parts with your melee weapon until they simplay cannot move - or you just hit & destroy their head

Simply because they are not dangerous yet.

I've started with DayZ because of the zombies and the "survival" element. And while we are talking about zombies here, we all know even if they have no legs, they would chase you by crawling until you destroy/cut off their head.

 

I miss something like this in the game.

They could be a big part in the game - with a huge negative effect in dangerous situations (for example, when you have a fight with an enemy player). But right now, when you trigger some and they follow you, it just feels like you've adopted an annoying pet.

a means for repairing damaged weapon accessories..

 

models - boarded up buildings full of infected banging and shouting to create a bit of atmosphere in towns.

 

night time tweaks to prevent gamma exploiting and torches shining through walls.

 

Schools. leisure centres, multi storey car parks, cinemas, sewer systems, more variety in the buildings, stuff like that..

at the moment it would be driftwood, small stick like peices of wood that are a very common and spawn in abbundance along the beech, only real use is to be combined with bandages/rags to make a splint.

 

it's really not fun to have the stairs glitch and break your legs before you even have a chance to come accross morphine or sticks on a fresh spawn, something like this would give you an option to compromise your early inventory space for leg break insurance before you even have a chance to break your legs, might also help deal with people who like to break bambi legs and run.
