Sgt.Oddball 71 Posted February 26, 2014 Experimental Branch Not seen this before, but I decided to head north to see if there was anything exciting. I think I may have found an unannounced village. Anybody been here before? Have I missed it in a changelog? Or has it always been here? I figured it was new as there was quite a few places where the landscape hadn't been adjusted to the buildings. (although, I quite like the overgrown abandoned look) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Black Dynamite 75 Posted February 26, 2014 They did reference adding new towns in that general area. You are probably correct. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sgt.Oddball 71 Posted February 26, 2014 I thought the new ones were going to be North East. Must of misread something..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dusty_nuttles 130 Posted February 27, 2014 Why can't they flatten the ground before they add buildings? it just leaves it open for players to manipulate and it looks like ass. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

m.w. vindicator 880 Posted February 27, 2014 I did a journey through the very most northern part of Chernarus. I found a train station and roads but there weren't many buildings yet. It looked odd. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sgt.Oddball 71 Posted February 27, 2014 Im guessing they stick them in and see what needs adjusting. This is on Experimental.... In an Alpha.... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sgt.Oddball 71 Posted February 27, 2014 shit that is the abandoned housing project which my character bought before the zombie apocalypse!! If its pre-apocalypse then your claim is null and void. As discoverer I claim it for myself and henceforth it shall be named Oddington. (All are welcome) 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rickyriot 1009 Posted February 27, 2014 Nice to see. There is a huge tranche of land from the NW pass all the way along to the train station near Gvozdno that is crying out for content. Lovely to wander when you first get the game but as good as player free wilderness in terms of the game. Would love to see a lot of it populated. Have to admit I thought they would extend the train station area as well as the buildings at 049/023 which is just farm buildings but has the road structure for more content. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hells high 676 Posted February 27, 2014 Yeah they said they were adding health centers and police stations "across the map", so I wouldn't be surprised if some of the designers were also busy building some of the new towns. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

blowmyhorn 20 Posted February 27, 2014 (edited) I broke my legs out of Svetlojarsk trying to climb down onto the railway track and crawled all the way there. I had sticks, but they were in my trouser pocket when I fell and were broken! It took a long time. I found the town with its weird half constructed pipe work, but it got dark and I couldn't see to find any twigs. After shooting my last bullets, I managed to find a fire station, pulled myself to the top and then rolled myself into oblivion. It looked weird, but then again, I could barely see over the kerb.

Have to admit I thought they would extend the train station area as well as the buildings at 049/023 which is just farm buildings but has the road structure for more content. I did some paralel pictures of dayzdb map and satelite photos of area north of Gvozdno. If they will make it a copy of real area (like they did with rest of map), there will be at leas 2 or 3 kilometres of towns along that northern road and railway. I dont know how to atach photos on this forum :) 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Soupie 2 Posted February 27, 2014 If you follow the road east on that image, there's a new small industrial walled compound - look at the grey patches. It's been nicely modelled. Couldn't find much if any loot in these two new areas... probably underground or not finished. Nice stuff! Miss the old Northern wilderness of the mod though.

crazykage 1063 Posted February 27, 2014 (edited) странно город That is to say, "Oddington" in Russian. I typed "oddington" into google translate, but it didn't work. So I separated the word into "odd", and "ington". "странно" means odd. Sadly, "ing" does not translate into russian, so I took the basic meaning of "ington" and assumed it referred to a city, or pollis, and instead typed in "town", which gave me "город", which, according to google translate, relates to "city, town, place, borough, burg". Hence, странно город....... I hereby move that this^ be made the official, in game name of this town, in honor of its first officially declared discoverer. All in favor?
