Some Ideas for Future Updates

[VVolf10 11]

Been playing the game over a week now and it is a fun game that I enjoy playing. While playing I made a list of some things that I think would be cool additions to the game. I apologize if some of these things have been mentioned already and these are just some ideas and I get that everyone may not like them.

-A day/night cycle:    I did see some posts that they are working on it so hopefully soon or possibly day and night servers.

-Servers for PvE and PvP:     I thought that it would be cool if we had the option to choose PvE severs that have a higher percentage of Zombies/animals that are more aggressive and lethal so if you wanted to play PvE only you had to fight harder to loot. I think that it would be fun to hunt Zombies with your team and have a high risk/reward system for looting where you are constantly sneaking and taking on zombies.

-Inventory fixes:    I know they are always tweaking, but overall I think it is not bad and it will get better over time. My biggest complaint is that you cannot read the description of an item since it is super small text, so i hope that gets fixed and they should add what ammo type weapons use in the description of the weapon.

-More Zombies:   Zombies need to be a little more of a factor when looting. There are times I loot 2 or 3 towns and see only a couple zombies. It seems that there should be more risk involved when looting area where there are zombies and overall more of them.

-Dead bodies:   Would be nice to come along a random dead NPC with random loot once in a while. Seems to be a fitting edition for a survival game to come across a dead body and take any loot that they have.

That is it for now. Again having fun playing and keep the updates coming.

 

Thanks

Day night cycle is part of hundreds of other threads. It isnt shown because of the frequency of the reset times on servers.

PvP or PvE can be done in private servers, or you can just go into a small pop server and PvE. This is a PvP based game however.

Inventory Fixes will always be part of the game

More zombies is also a topic on hundreds of threads. Many want a horde to attack random cities.

Dead bodies of zombie with loot happens but the chance is low. Some have reported morphine on zombies, however I have yet to see any loot. At this moment it is unnecessary but may be part of a future update.

 

All of these items have been talked about in other threads.

-Do we have the option for Private servers yet?

-I disagree random dead bodies seem necessary in this type of game.

 

I figured some of these things have been mentioned, but I also wanted to do my part to help with the game by posting my list. The more requests for an item or fix usually helps movie it along.

You can read the PC private server  update here: 

https://dayz.com/blog/dayz-server-files-launch

 

And you can read the xbox FAQ here:

 

Which state:

Can players start their own private servers on Xbox?

Not right now, but we definitely want to have that option in DayZ later on.

 

If you want random dead bodies with loot let's get some pvp going. I think it would be too easy to get high tier items from zombies if you have drops on them, however if you do generic drops like tape or cloth or something that's fine.

I agree with all apart from PVE. I'm not trying to sound confrontational or anything, so please excuse if it comes across this way. This is a hardcore survival game, PvP is a huge part of it, as Bombarding said, you can make this an option in private servers.

 

I'd suggest playing State of Decay if you want a PvE zombie game ;D.

The PvE idea are great, atleast til all the KOS goes away.
