Staying Alive is a pretty good DayZ objective.  Wait till XboX gets up to speed - then see if you have time for built-in game missions , instead of the objectives you invent for yourself.

If you want a starter mission? = find the Bronze Statue of the 'Forgotten Socialist Leader' - it's tilted & half buried in woodland (it is NOT in a town). The half still above ground level is about 10 feet high You'll know it when you see it.  Which direction is he pointing?

 also it would be nice to have some sort of point or leveling system

I'm not sure this is the type of mission OP is talking about.

Dont get me wrong. I agree. You make a story, mission for yourself in this game, but truth be told, I would really like to see a server message that states:

"Bandits have invaded Berizino and have occupied a weapons cache, clear out the bandits for a reward" or "A sniper cache has been located in NW Airfield" or "Supply Drop incoming at Electro"

Something every player can see, and if the reward is big enough, it turns into a full server shootout, where only the smartest get the loot. 

Say for example a supply drop with meds, guns, scopes, ammo drops. Tons of players would flock to it. Say on a 60 player server, 20-30 go for it. Huge parties engage in a gunfight. 10 are knockout in seconds. 10 more get shot while bandaging or trying to get loot, a few snipers watching it remain. Tactically they go for it. 1 person goes for the cache and takes it as a squad comes in. The solo hears a bullet fly by their head, they run and evac, they get that SVD, with mags and a scope, with precious brain infection meds that they need because they ran out of food and had to eat the flesh of one of the dead bodies from the fight.

That is the type of immersion OP is looking for, I believe.

As in localised server events? Like destiny and other mmos have? 

Random events happen and can be completed solo or grouped up(even could see random survivors there too lol other players obviously ) and complete for a loot reward and the loot off the dead NPCs etc

Cant see it happening any time soon as it would of been implemented on PC or mentioned at least but they would be cool and fit in well if properly looked at. As the exile mod has hordes etc

It is not in the scope of our game to break the immersion by just sending you server messages or having AI bandits.

That said, with the enabling of the server files and modding we are pretty sure that there will be modded servers offering such airdrop and AI missions in the future.

Well, that gives me hope for my question that I made but never got a reply from in the modding subtopic.

 

Thank you.

So mods on console are something you guys are considering? 

I’m wondering if it will be a private server only option, or perhaps certain official servers will have such an option?

Very excited to see what’s to come!

Do you think the xbox version will have the text prompts like 'I am bleeding' or 'My right leg is broken' etc will be on xbox like they do/did on PC? Even though it may remove immersion slightly, i think it would be extremely helpful.

 

Thanks,
