JonySK 60 Posted February 22, 2015 Hopefully they will add advanced base building, but I suspect it will be like everything else they have added. Really lame. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nettles 396 Posted February 22, 2015 This game's going to be a survival simulator that pits you against disease, hostile NPCs and players, the wicked outdoors, and your needs (such as eating and covering yourself). Dean Hall mentioned he wanted to develop this into an anti-game. Not a game where you have fun and frolic in fields of infinite rifles and 'ammo.' Any 'missions' you do are going to be facilitated by other players with established bases, probably. Bring a camp enough food to keep their sick guys alive, get a reward or acceptance into the camp, mission complete. Get a couple buddies, gun down all their people and take over the camp, whatever. It's up to you to decide what you're going to do with the tools provided on release. You don't need an NPC giving you direction. Use your imagination.And please don't be one of those children that constantly refer to themselves as 'snipers' on the forum. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

xalienax 621 Posted February 22, 2015 I thought only 13 year olds played Epoch...*reads thread*Theory confirmed.kinda unecessaryI played a TON of 'official' mod dating back to the days when you spawned with the revolver lol. Epoch tho, has some nice things, The base building system is probably it's shining point and the fact that some of the stuff is really heavy to carry makes teamwork an vehicles a necessity for larger constructions (ie: Encourages interaction and group-play) that said the all-to-common servers that offer stupid 'donater bonuses' and AI missions that spoil you with abundant loot ruin it. i never liked AI traders or 'safe zones' either. my Ideal dayZ:- Extreme rarity of loot (id say less then 1/5 or 1/10 what it is now), Harsh climate.- 'end game' content allowing for larger bases and compounds to be built but requiring MASSIVE man-hours or many co-operarting players to achieve.- heavy focus on staying alive as long as possible- More realistic hunger/thirst rates to offset limited amounts of convenient food/drink loot.- Vehicles should be a massive help to large groups but require extensive repair and efforts to maintain.

sachad 1016 Posted February 22, 2015 Hello, I want to know if DayZ Standalone will have base building and missions is there gonna be Epoch or Overpoch like in the mod ?Thanks. :) Once the game is finished and the mod community goes to work on it, I expect we'll see a few Epoch-like mods appear. However, for the Standalone, I wouldn't get your hopes up... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jook1 3 Posted February 22, 2015 Hello, I want to know if DayZ Standalone will have base building and missions is there gonna be Epoch or Overpoch like in the mod ?Thanks. :)I'm fairly sure there will be, as it has been stated that there will be mods made for standalone. It's probably 1.5 - 2 years away from that though. I'm not sure what the other people that posted have been reading, but that's what i read. There is a epoch mod for arma3 if your not aware of.

SwitchSL (DayZ) 17 Posted February 22, 2015 This game's attempting to be a survival simulator that pits you against time as you will most likely be very old before it's complete. Dean Hall is irrelevant. Now it's just a game where you have fun and frolic in fields with rifles and 'ammo.' Any 'missions' you do are going to be facilitated by other players on the RP servers, probably. Use your limited imagination. Fixed. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SwitchSL (DayZ) 17 Posted February 22, 2015 (edited) guys asks question and as always this forum acts like the 13 year olds they say are asking the question ! either ignore or move on !Yet your reply was the least helpful/humorous of them all. Back OT: Base building will be awesome and when they get around to implementing seasonal weather, an igloo will be my favorite base.

Sorry dude, but when people post redundant topics like this instead of using the search function, it's hard not to ridicule them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
