NPC Shop

[UndeadAssassin 23]

i think that an npc store or protected shop should be added to dayz, with 1 shop per server that moves every 24 hours, that spawns (in lardge towns or citys) a gun shop or butcher shop that is acsessable by players, with a single npc behind bullet-proof glass.

they will only sell weapons that aren't military grade and the weapons that it does sell it is authorised to sell you 3 clips of ammo but only if the gun is in your inventory. using foods as currency by using the blood the food would normally add to yours (so cooked meat is worth 800).

the butcher will sell uncooked meat for the value of blood that ammo is worth (so say 2400 blood for 1 1866 winchester repeater mag make's say 4 uncooked meat).

ps: I havn't actually installed dayz yet but have read a lot about it on these forums and the wiki and i think this would help for new spawners.

Oh, oh, oh. What a nice idea. (not)

What the hell do you want next? a NPC which is wandering around with a bullet proof window and stuff, and as next u want to have some military paratroopers which can pick you up anywhere u want and bring u anywhere u want? cmon. (:

Shops will ruin the whole idea of survival and looting your own stuff.

As you said, you haven't played DayZ, you have no idea how stressed you get from every tiny movement when you try to loot an airport or military locations, knowing that every second someone can pull up behind you with an AK and take you down.

Not a bad idea but I wouldn't say it's really realistic as then youd have to implement a trading/currency style system I prefer looting, but if the idea happened the voice lines for the NPCs have to be either

"What are ya buying, what are ya selling"

"I like the big ones, don't you?"

"the shops open boys come and get me"

Breaks immersion, not realistic, and not that big of a game changer. People would find it and camp it, most new players won't have meat/items to trade, and I think it might be too much to try and implement for such a small feature.

(lol at killing floor reference^ :D)

you want a place where people can trade? make a place where people can trade

DayZ cannot afford to compromise on being a Player Defined World

Good idea, but why need a npc to do that ? If you want to open a shop, go on, you can already do this. Find 2 guys to back you up, gather some weapons in barns and have fun :)

Good luck surviving more than 1 hour.

The moment you set up shop, someone WILL kill you within an hour. Whether it's a clan or a sniper on a nearby hill, you will die.

Agreed with your post, but then people camp NW Airfield, Stary Sobor military tents.. People camp Electro and Cherno hotspots and spawn points.. nothing new about camping tbh in DayZ, infact most of my deaths in this game have been down to a camping sniper.

I like the idea of having alternative ways to obtain items other than just looting though. I think having a shop or swap shop sort of system could add a new dimension to the mod.

[UndeadAssassin 23]

i just dont realise why there aren't even lootable gunshops for non military spawns anyway its more likely to find a gun in a shop that sold them than a bloody barn

[Strategos (DayZ) 190]

Terrible terrible idea.

[Womb Raider 92]

This is not Killing Floor, make it yourself. That may seem harsh, but I doubt this will ever be implemented.

And it moves? Aww cute. No.
