Missions?

[Atroxy 3]

Something I found interesting in dayz overwatch where the npc missions, where for example a chopper or c130 crashed and bandits are securing it. These targets have valuable loot and rare items and can be found on random locations. Once these have been looted by the players they helis and planes or even convoy trucks get overgrown and slowly rust away.

It gives players a goal to pursuit. A chance to gear up and encounter pvp when they want to. It might also reduce the amount of KoS deaths on the servers.

Too much arma2. I don't like npc missons. Random events(crashed chopper with loot) on map - yes but AI bandits no.

Especially since most of them have an aimbot abd can see you while you try to sneak up on them :/ But im all for some crash choppers and stuff. Like matbe you could actually watch it crash down and try to find its crash spot

some missions would be cool or just more things to do

Didn't rocket already mention that he isn't going to implement something like this in the near future anyway or isn't even planning on having those at all?

 

It was compared to the helicrashes we have in the mod at the time, but he didn't like the idea and probably isn't going to implement it again.

AI Bandits like the ones on ArmA 2 no thanks.

 

But I'm all for some other kind of missions...What about NPC barricaded at a house, when you enter he asks you for 5 cans of food or something for his daughter or...whatever. So you gotta go out and loot...free some space on your BP in order to complete the mission and get a reward like "20 5.56mm ammo" or ".45 suprpesor" or "pristine Rocket Launcher super mega fun" you get the picture

I believe it's been mentioned a few times now that there will never be NPC's in DayZ beyond zombies.
