Community Choice - Best Island out of 2!

[Yuval 221]

I am interested in your opinions on these 2 islands -

 

Napf and Kellu.

 

Napf is more known around dayz players and I'm pretty sure Kellu wasn't ported to DayZ yet (I don't know really), but if you'll have a chance to play DayZ in both of them - which will you play on?

 

Here are some Screenshots of these Islands:

Napf looks a bit more "Done" and detailed. There's more variety in terrain types and there's a few islands that branch off from it.

 

Kellu just seems unfinished to me. And it looks significantly smaller than Napf.

 

My choice would have to be Napf.

I want more opinions, and detailed explainations on choices but your opinion seems real. I am aware of Kellu being small in one hand, but in the other hand it seems solid. You have no idea how many islands exist with missing parts and textures and roads and etc... Kellu is just smooth as baby's bottom. It has proper villages and towns in it. No airfield though. (This island is really peaceful).

 

Napf, seems to be much bigger and maybe even better. With cool looking cities and great mapscale. The views are great and the map is generally awesome.

 

But I wish to know what the community thinks because personally I can't choose.

Fine. 

 

Kellu's terrian for the most part consist of mostly mountains and nothing else. This encourages everyone to grab an accurate rifle and sit on a hill. Napf has mountains, plains, trees, you name it. Many more cities as well. This encourages all types of combat rather than everyone sitting on a hill with a rifle.

 

Kellu has a "Capture Point" feel to it with how the cities are spaced and distributed. Napf seems more natural and would fit better in an apocalyptic world where surviving is the main goal.

Noooo man don't get me wrong!! I didn't mean to change your mind. And I actually agree with your opinion. I know napf seems better but I want more opinions.

I don't have any thing for/against any of these Islands. I just want to know the community's opinion.

Neither of them look particularly great, but they do look original, probably napf though i dont like the name, i mean bigger is better and it looks like a lot more work went into napf

Cant wait till i can make maps like this for standalone

I didn't change my mind, I just added more reason to go for Napf rather than Kellu.

 

Kellu could be really good for an island off the shore of Chernarus. Dean needs to add on to Chernarus using off-shore islands and extended areas to the north and west. He should be able to do this with the team redesigning the rendering engine (which is happening as we speak). Plus, the debug area to the north and west is land they CAN use in the game. The only problem with them doing it now is it would bring the engine to it's knees trying to render more than we have now. Once that's solved, it's a simple change in values to get the game to read the new areas so persistent objects don't reset when placed there, as well as adding towns, loot spawns, etc...

That's interesting. Do you know how to work with Visitor3 and programs around it for sat/layer masks and etc..?

Could I also ask you what would you like to see in DayZ maps?
