kalevi123 0 Posted October 12, 2015 Hello! I have played a lot of DayZ and I have seen good patches and not so good patches. Can someone tell me why weapons, rounds and mags are so hard to find? I think the best thing in next patch could be a high military loot with forgotten weapons like m4a1 and attachments for them. If i could do it, I make military camps harder to enter in and noisy zombie hordes. Maybe some AI soldiers to defend it. It will be a so good reward when you survive from them and find so much good gear and weapons! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dchil 829 Posted October 12, 2015 Well let's begin... One: This. Is. A. Survival. Game. Things are supposed to be hard to find, it isn't Call of Duty. Two: The M4 exists in this game along with attachments, they're just hard to find (AFAIK) Three: Hordes are on their way, they should be in when the zombies come back due to better AI being worked on right now. (AFAIK) Four: If you want AI soldiers then there are many versions of the mod and arma which allow you to do this. DayZ is supposed to be entirely player driven, thus no AI. Except Zombies and animals. Fifth: This is not a shoot-em-up, this is not a FPS, this is a survival game. Weapons aren't everything. Sixth: Please don't double post. Did I miss anything? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kalevi123 0 Posted October 12, 2015 Nothing missed. Thanks for posting, I like discuss with you. You showed good points. But think about that, if that zombie apocalypse could happen now in real life. I promise you try to go and find weapons. If you lived near the military camps on the borders, you go there and there are tons of different weapons! What I see on DayZ today, everybody tries to kill each other. Everybody likes to go PvP servers. Those are always full. I want to see more teamwork and helping each other, maybe that can be happen when groups of survivors try to enter military area's, medical centers, markets etc. So, post is this crap or what.

scriptfactory 620 Posted October 12, 2015 (edited) i do hope to one day see the mil bases packed to the hilt with infected as well as hospitals you should not want to go there unless you have an army and are well equipped. I would be in favor of infected being mostly "special events". I don't want the map crawling with infected. If you hear one growling it should make you shit your pants. Example: If you are listening to your radio and hear a broadcast about a NATO helicopter crashing (with coordinates) or a hospital being overrun you travel there knowing that there will be good loot but they will also be crawling with zombies. Helicopters should have armored zombies (harder to kill). Example: When walking through towns you should basically see no zombies. Infected should mostly spawn inside of buildings to surpise you when you are looting. If you put your ear to a door maybe you could hear them. This would make players be more methodical with their looting while making infected a bigger threat. Players would draw infected outside to kill them. This could potentially attract the attention of other players. Example: Firing weapons could have a chance to spawn more infected in nearby buildings. If infected are just sick humans then they should be able to open doors. If you are in the middle of the woods you would feel more comfortable getting into firefights.

Valdenburg 200 Posted October 12, 2015 wait untill they implement infected zones that you can only enter with taking high risks or gas masks etc.. These zones should have higher rewards. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kalevi123 0 Posted October 13, 2015 (edited) The one thing why there should be more chance to find military equipment is that how much there is bandits and traitors who want to instant kill you. Also what will keep your motivation up after death, is that you will have a good chance to find common gear from the civilian buildings. Food, backpacks, clothes, medical supplies. Then I ask you guys, how often you have seen players who doesn't want to find weapons? For now, in my opinion peoples are too careless, when there will be zombie hordes, bigger possibility get a sickness and bigger possibility to have a hard firefight people look more around and hide. Of course you can still be a aggressive. Maybe they understand then that you need to find friends, help each other and think seriously what you need to do to reaching your goals. You goal isn't collect berries, especially when you get a sickness from them... -..- This is going to fun see how peoples are react to this, so keep posting your suggestions!

Especially when they aren't responsible for their actions, like on the internet. That's why we have a KOS mentality. The motivation shouldn't just be the gear, it should be the journey. On top of that if your motivation is the gear then why make it easy? That takes the challenge out of it, which makes it boring. People are too careless because there are no zombies (except the three that inhabit each server). There are people who don't want to find weapons, but they make their own. The improvised bow is one of them. But they tend to try and stay away from the rest of the player base. You're eating the wrong berries. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
