Found a "camp", what should I do?

[syncmaster (DayZ) 63]

So I stumbled across my first tent city today. They had quite a few vehicles and tents set up. I took what I wanted, and a vehicle for myself. I also moved 2 to a spot a good distance from their camp. Planning on parking them on popular roads as a present for randoms, but it was taking too long. Have you ever drove a bus through the woods? Its slower than crawling.

I'm wondering what to do now. Part of me just wants to leave them alone because I probably caused them enough grief. Another part of me says screw the hoarders, this is why all the new players can never find cars. So I am going to leave it up to you. What should I do?

1. Leave them alone.

2. Post the server so bandits can have their way with the camp.

3. PM a few newbes the server and location so they can try a car.

Lets hear it before I get impatient, leave my gear in my car, and drive a bus through Cherno honking at randoms.

4. Take what you can carry then get in the car, run everything over, get out of the car, set it on fire, leave.

[needhelp 1]

First take what you want, then destroy the rest.

Fuck this vehicle collecting and tent citying.

Frag grenades show awesome results on tents, cars can be just blown up.

[osiriszoran 33]

call in your buddies and ambush them when they come home.

[syncmaster (DayZ) 63]

I (they) have no grenades. I'm also not running anything over and killing my character unless its something more exciting than destroying their camp. I could post the server and 20 people would run to do that for me. I'm going to count you guys as voting for #2.

Rob anything you need from it, we found one last night all we left was 1 ammo mag, drank the water an left the empty water bottle, took the cammo clothes an left civilian clothes. Its all about survival

Survey the area for the owners. If you find nothing. Rob it.

Grab as much as you can carry as fast as you can and leg it.

If you're brave. Take some, stash it nearby but hidden and go back for more.

5. Pack up the good stuff then ride off and pretend to be an early Santa Claus!

[wolffe 52]

Tough call.

On one hand those people probably worked hard to hoard those vehicles so a part of me says they deserve the reward for their hard work.

THe other hand says since only a limited number of vehicles spawn per server, there is a finite amount & as such they are hoarding and ruining the experience of everyone else. It is a true"the elite have everything" scenario.

I'd say burn them all & hopefully a corpse of the vehicle remains it would be nice of them to be driving back & seeing the smoke above the treeline from their camp.

[EnermaX 59]

Take gear. Burn tents down. Take 1 car. Blow the others up. Fucking car-collecting.

[osiriszoran 33]

If you find my camp of 5 vehicles please post here before doing anything though so i can load in with my SAW + 800 bullets hidden in a tree nearby.

[species5021 28]

Fun that they were able to gather all that stuff, they must be bored now with nothing to do.

It is your solemn duty to make sure they have a goal again, destroy it all and then gtfo.

DayZ giveth, DayZ taketh away!

[syncmaster (DayZ) 63]

How do I destroy it all with my 2 g17 mags and a dmr?

[BossFi 90]

I would take what I needed. Then when you need more supplies, like when you die, you can come back later and get more. The owners losing a few things may just think its a bug, as losing loot does happen atm.

I regulary visited a camp and took stuff when I really needed it. The owners didnt seem to mind as they kept filling it up. lol

[Arquebus 14]

Pick yourself a nice ride, steal all their fuel and burn the other vehicles.

[deltron3o3o 29]

run everything over and setup new tents x3 for em to find empty

[crusader19990 0]

take what you need then go into the forest and survey them if they are bandits roll them over and leave nothing behind if friendly survivors leave them they maybe were lucky on finding the gear

[syncmaster (DayZ) 63]

Okay so here are the results.

I spread out the cars all over the map. Parked half in the middle of nowhere, and the other half in random towns for people to find. They better be grateful too because it took hours to do. I also destroyed half their tents, only the ones with loot in it. All their cars and extra gear is gone now. So I did a little bit of everything, but I hope you know I only destroyed their stuff for you guys. So your welcome. I feel so dirty now.

Best loot of the night: cayote backpack (first one ever), SAW w400 rounds, M107, Binzon SD with 5+ clips. Oh, and a car for myself of course. I feel a little better now. Going to try not to get attached to it though considering I will probably lose it or get myself killed driving it. Also feels kind of like a free respawn cheat. If I died I just have to make it back and I'm fully geared up.

Highlight of the night had to be driving to the NW airfield and speeding around the runways while honking my horn. I was on the runway for a whole 15 seconds before I was being shot at by at least 3 different people, all from different sections of the airfield. I just swerve from side to side as I drive by each shooter, honking at them the whole time, then speed off after I see zombies running their way. They never touched me and I got away safely.

Best night of DayZ ever,

In any other game that would just be funny. In Day Z with perma-death it becomes epic!

If the camp contains 11 vehicles, we've rigged them all with high explosives and can track the vehicles on GPS whenever necessary.

[Tyrog 10]

I'd say

Take what you want, destroy the rest.

Come on, it took me a while but there is no way I moved 10 vehicles all over the map and hid one for myself. I was alone the whole time.. Also if that's true, quit hording man. I don't care how big your group is you don't need 11 cars.

Someone did mention earlier having 5 cars and that they would be waiting with their SAW. 5 is the correct number and I did find a SAW.

Look in vehicle. Take grenades. Blow everything up. They will respawn for any player to use.
