CJ_14 105 Posted December 17, 2014 I've been playing DayZ since the mod came out and I've always felt like this game lacks something important. Proper cities. I know this is based on an ArmA 2 map, that is a bit old, not very well optimized and made for sim purposes. But now DayZ being a standalone game I hope that someday we get a map with proper sizes and buildings, streets, ambientation and such. Svetlojarsk and Novo are the closest to what I'm trying to say. I'll use the example of a well known city. Raccon Just imagine a city this big (kinda like from Chernogorsk to Prigorodski) and please. I'm not talking about the massive astrodimensial fps drop we'd get, I know it just wouldn't be possible on the engine, at least in its current state. I'm just talking at the immersion and feel it would give us as players. I still go to Svetlojarsk and I feel like it is a fine size city, but it still lack of the feeling of a true city. I don't know if you can undestand what I'm trying to say. And it isn't just the cities...the buildings as well, I like the police station building, but it is so small to be a proper police station. No restroom, no hallways full of jails and such.I have a really big hope for the prison building, it looks like the closest building to give the feeling of immersion this game needs PS: don't take me wrong. I love this game. I know it will take time to be fully developed. I play it every day. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dagwood 680 Posted December 17, 2014 Dude, this is an alpha game. Suggestions that aren't immediately applicable to the game in its current state, or that could be interpreted as negative, ARE NOT TOLERATED ON THESE FORUMS. I have killed men for less. That is all.

igor-vk 909 Posted December 17, 2014 There was Fallujah map for dayz and Arma 2. I played few times. Some 50% of map was one bit city. Not many enterable buildings, but feeling like in some kind of labirynt was interesting and diferent from other maps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blaf 63 Posted December 17, 2014 Would love to see one proper city on the map, with different districts and such, it would be awesome... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Etherious 907 Posted December 17, 2014 This isn't some urban city from L.A. or Dubai. This is a rural type area of Czech Republic. So, a type of city like that would not fit. IMO. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is true, but almost all of us know how awesome a map of this style would be.I've always wanted a zombie survival game inside of an actual modern city with outskirts and forests.

cruiseashimself 56 Posted December 17, 2014 This would be soo cool. It would be pretty sweet to have one metropolitan city. Not too large, you know... Just more than Novo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

UKA Harrysoon 67 Posted December 17, 2014 Well, you could find this city on the map Chernarus is based on IRL: Take the river going through the city out, and I say we more or less have that with Cherno... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Damnyourdeadman 1045 Posted December 17, 2014 Devs are taking alot of time trying to push new buildings ingame.For example,the prison complex was planned for implementation months ago.If we were to have a city at this scale that is unique and doesn't feel like it's been copy pasted,i doubt it can be accomplished in a "reasonable" timeframe.

TheHermit (DayZ) 22 Posted December 17, 2014 Oh that would be vicious! Rooftops everywhere, alleys, infinite windows to camp by.Rolling thru a big city would be asking for it! I don't know if it would segregate the game too much. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blaf 63 Posted December 17, 2014 Take the river going through the city out, and I say we more or less have that with Cherno...Actually the river is defining coast in Chernarus, but even then i may confirm this city (Usti nad Labem) is multiple times bigger than Chernogorsk :) btw nice comparison there: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
