overdosed (DayZ) 77 Posted June 22, 2014 So yeah the map currently has 3 airfields a number 1 too high for a place that big. With new NEAF 1 military and 1 civilian airport seem more than enough. Why not turn Balota into a military marine base with a huge harbour and military ships strewn around. Might even put some of them a short swim off the shore to make exploring and looting even more interesting and dangerous. Just an interesting idea, what do you think? Balota should not stay as an airfield for sure, any other ideas for the place? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Element47 2481 Posted June 22, 2014 let everyone spawn in the water off the coast of balota. install gun emplacements facing the coast. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hombrecz 832 Posted June 22, 2014 (edited) And here I was thinking that you gonna ask for removal of Balota barracks. Edited June 22, 2014 by Hombre Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
overdosed (DayZ) 77 Posted June 22, 2014 And here I was thinking that you gonna ask for removal of Balota barracks. I dont mind the loot in there. It just shouldnt be an airport anymore. And since there isnt a military harbour in Chernarus yet why not just replace Balota. And I do love the shipwreck so having more ships to loot around would be pretty fun. Having to swim to them would also be really awesome. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Redstar Payne 54 Posted June 22, 2014 normally I don't agree with changing the air fields but you do make an excellent point on making it a harbor rather then a airfield. Although the airfield should still be a heli landing zone because even harbors have a landing zones near them that aren't just on the ships but definitely change it from a big air field because honestly NW is big enough for the entire land scape lol. Oh and we need a civilian airport at NW, just sayin lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NEAF is being repurposed into a civilian airfield http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/200390-do-you-want-the-new-version-of-neaf/ so why have a civilian part of NWAF?
