FunkInYourTrunk 354 Posted August 28, 2016 Though i agree that pvp seems to have taken over the game as it is right now i dont think plot progression is a good idea. One of the best things about dayz is that the story is what you make it. Besides once vehicles are fixed and zeds are everywhere pvp will taper off. When it becomes hard to survive people will work together. Once vehicles are fixed people will work together to restore and maintain them. Then they will work together to keep them. Once basebuilding is in people will work together to build. Imo the game is going in exactly the direction it should. I just wish they had some kind of wizard who could finish it with the wave of his hands so it could be done at a massively unrealistic speed. Very much looking forward to .61 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
philbur 476 Posted August 28, 2016 Yeah, I have waivered back and forth on the PVP aspect....and I have to admit that the "fear" of other players is such a compelling part of the immersion and I would actually prefer servers that don't totally try to ban it. Even the lone wolf farmers and hermits out there will see some respect because they have what you need and unless you want to go full-blast commando on their arses then trading will inevitably become part of the culture as well, methinks. I still despise the Team-Speaking KOS clan boys but those can be weeded out easily enough on Private servers. Having a general plot or "missions" would end up being like the Mod was...where you would just use these to gear up quicker/better and I still hold out hope that the Standalone will retain its original vision of being "whatever you want it to be" 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

trigger313th 7 Posted August 30, 2016 Steam just finished a small but prompt update to DayZ this morning. It was 2.1 MB's and I am am subscribed to the exp branch. It didn't change anything and Vers is still the same.. But wishfull thinking on my part hopes for an update to ecperimental allowing us to play with some of the features currently in "Testing". 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
