kradarak 23 Posted October 17, 2015 I remember the first time I played DayZ. After all the hours, months ago, I do. Strangely enough, I spawned in that fishing villiage in the North Eastern part. It was so dark, I was freaked out of my mind on how little I could see. I LOVED IT. I made it to one of the houses and found a few items, and i could hear a zombie somewhere...but it didn't sound excited, so I just kept creeping along. Eventually, I became aware of stats and that I was starting to die, so I ran down what I could see of a road, and died by a zombie I think. My first impressions were BEST GAME EVER!!! See, I'm a Dark Souls kinda guy. I like a very difficult and challenging game with some interaction. Not everyone survived the zombie apocalypse. 1. I would like night time to be more difficult like it used to be. This gray BS makes me wonder why there is a night time at all. I can understand seeing a bit on nights with the moon our or having phases of low light, but otherwise, it wasn't broken to begin with. I mean honestly, the only reason anyone should use items that light up is for decoration and to blind another player. What, you guys don't throw torches into a building to help blind players inside so that you can shoot them better? Oh, just me... Oops... 2. Zombies. We need zombies. We sometimes need hordes of them. Thinking of population density, realistically, there should be a whole bunch of Zombies everywhere. I want to be afraid to move around in fear that I'm going to actually die. It's why this game is a post-apocalyptic Arma PVP deathmatch right now. Without Zombies, IT is primarily a PVP game and secondarily a survival game. Items are plentiful to stay alive, and that means the biggest threat is other players... I had fun the first month playing by popping people in the head, but after a while, it gets really old. Loved running into a house, spinning around, taking a knee...2 seconds later, someone comes in, pop pop. Sucker... You will find that the default mode of play with a good survival game is team work and not pvp when the Zombies are BA enough to make ya think twice about running across town popping zombies. I don't care if items for survival are plentiful, but I need a threat big enough that makes me think twice about shooting recklessly at other players and makes me think twice on how I'm going to get those goods. Basically those are my suggestions. I'd like night to be difficult to see and hinder my ability to do my best, and I want zombies. I want a survival game that makes the challenge of it survival. Game seems too soft. 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kirby12352 67 Posted October 17, 2015 I think with the next update zombies are supposed to spawn in greater numbers. I haven't heard anything about hordes, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SomeCallMeNomad (DayZ) 89 Posted October 17, 2015 I think with the next update zombies are supposed to spawn in greater numbers. I haven't heard anything about hordes, though.Ya, according the status report, zombies will be re-implemented in 0.59 We're going to be spawning infected again at strong quantities in 0.59 as the gameplay programming team has been working hard on making sure we can have a smooth 75 player experience (which is looking really good guys, I'm pumped!).

Cartoonrboy 94 Posted November 16, 2015 Whether the game is too soft is down to the host. The tendency is to attract players with easier modes of play, rather than enforce a tougher experience. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sperglord 76 Posted November 16, 2015 There have been billion threads with the same exact ideas, and the devs already confirmed all of this to be in the game later Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
