ramontvgames 32 Posted April 11, 2019 What to expect for the next update? I'm a big fan of DayZmod, I bought Standalone in 2013 ... I did not like it much, I went back to playing DayZ this week and I think it's cool because of the mods. Will there be new maps? they will change the mechanics and the amount of zombies?

Lt.Master 78 Posted April 11, 2019 (edited) Hi ^^ Some features can be found with this link (click me) but this is very outdated. Beard, road, animation, gun jam, user action are for example ingame and not anymore in the offices of the devs. Zombies Hordes are planned Zombies were planned in the past to open doors (or at least smah there head at the door) I only saw Dean Hall talk about this so it's probably scrapped but he talked about zombies eating dead survivors As you know zombies still have issues (do a circle around you or go inside you for example) so one day we should see a new update with some fixes about that... And yes this is a big deal if you want to be really in the game 😉 Only Chernarus is planned BUT modders are working on some new maps such as Namalsk (trailer here) and S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Live Zone (trailer here). A lot of mechanics are planned for other stuff like guns/vehicles/... but we don't know what and when they are going to drop into our hands so even if I tease you with a nice helicopter or a grenade launcher. You should keep in mind we have no informations about when they are even going to talk about it... And we can also have some unannounced features so don't panic... Like zombies not standing in front of a car and doing nothing maybe 😛 Edited April 16, 2019 by Lt.Master Not Bears but Beards 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I hope they do cool things to trap us for hours inside the game ... Some things that Dean Hall said (I do not trust him very much), since he ditched DayZ after selling millions! ... He said the characters would grow old with survival time. That would be cool, but since it was Dean who quoted , I'd rather not believe too much. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Survivor1431 116 Posted April 11, 2019 (edited) I think zombies opening doors is really important. It's currently way too easy to run into a house run out and close the door to trap them. They should be delayed temporarily and then break open the door so you're forced to either escape and hide or kill them. Then if you have a lock-pick it should take them even longer to break the door open. And if you barricade the door with boards it should take really long or be impossible. But this would make fighting infected far more interesting and threatening. Edited April 11, 2019 by Survivor1431 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What he meant by that was the look of your character will change over time. The Beard and the hair will grow for example. In the past we saw a character with a beard and scars all over it's face so it's probably going live one day too 😉 13 hours ago, Survivor1431 said: I think zombies opening doors is really important.

THX Survivors! There are new maps in development. You can even play some of them on servers. The zombie numbers can be increased by server owners on private servers (as I have done) and as far as mechanics, well, that's rather broad, but there are mods that change the way the game is played (less rags, less meat, etc). 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Actually in most of the "non-super" zombie movies they tend to break the doors open if not barricaded or at least try. Running away from zeds is too easy, them being able to "break" (open) the doors by smashing the door for a while would great! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm pretty sure with the engine that DayZ is on, destructible environments isn't possible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Its been a downward spiral ever since 0.62. Before that it was (some what) a game. (Yes i know it all had to be recreated/replaced within the New engine) I still (and obviously a lot still) would want to see the vision of dayz become reality. But as a gamer with a lot of years under his belt, Its easy to see the future of this game, unless......... A miracle happens Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
