HappyXceed (DayZ) 28 Posted March 18, 2015 Do I have to explain why this is a horrible idea, or did the OP get the picture from all the comments before me? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wookieenoob 191 Posted March 18, 2015 - Berezino- Novodmitrovsk- Severograd please no. player spawns should be randomised including spawning gear. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Evil Minion 943 Posted March 20, 2015 (edited) I don't like the idea. Sure it would be nice to spawn (relatively) close to friends but there are disadvantages to this as well: Having your group members of choice available immediately (and most likely a psychic link as well) significantly increases the powerlevel of the freshspawns in question and might reduce the need to cooperate with strangers. You also lose one of your early game objectives as you do not need to meet up with your friends. Then choosing your respawn area has some significant disadvantages: It's abusable in a way that allows players to spawn closer to their body/tent regearing faster which makes death less impactful (sure freshspawn suicide does the same but why make it even easier - if anything make freshspawn suiciding harder or pointless*) and skips parts of the game. And as a pre-game choice it should be subject to balancing which is extremely hard to do at this complexicity and would probably reduce the diversity of gameplay if successful. *Like respawning freshspawns close to the place they died (as freshspawns).

ImageCtrl 719 Posted March 20, 2015 (edited) Can you explain me then why i constantly have to watch respawning in 30 seconds on twitch? Please enlighten me the NO :-)Because they can. I the future the server owner (private hive) can choose how long you can´t connect to the server after a death (half hour, 1 day, 1 week etc). Instead of COMPLETELY random respawns you should limit the range of random respawns. People tend to stick to each other but because everyone is like everywhere on the maps these days RUINS the fun. Please after you press the respawn button, give a list of cities to respawn in. Offcourse still random points near that city but at least in 10 min walking time of a city. So you can basicly rejoin your friends after you got killed. So when you press 'Respawn' you get a second menu with city names: For example: - Chernogorsk- Elektrozavodsk- Solnichniy- Berezino- Novodmitrovsk- Severograd- Vyshnoye- Svetlojarsk So basicly 'near' that city a RANDOM respawn within 10 min walk, instead of suiciding constantly to get back to your friends. (Guess what mental issue you are pushing to young people ffs!) This way the game will get more enjoyable. Offcourse i should not place it too close to military spots although i think putting in a complete NW village will also be nice like Sinistok and Toploniki.No thanks. Don´t die. Thats all.
