oDesigns 5 Posted October 29, 2019 Hello I’m a big fan of DayZ and I love the game I play on console but theirs a problem that unfortunately I’m not happy with which is the base building and base raiding. First of I feel like base building for console should be we could be build in any terrain we want and set up our tens where want like even inside in an apartment. I’m sure a lot of player would love this feature. Also it would be nice to see some new base supply materials like sand bags or something that would make our base more hard to raid. Then you got the base raiding it would also good when you guys release the map you would make base raiding little harder by adding more time for breaking down a layer of a wall because after it’s hard looking for nails then having to spend hours looking for loot building cars then have it a get rid of in like 10-20 minutes because it takes less than a minutes to get into your walls. If you guys are going to be selling that new map which you will and I will buy I hope you fix base raiding at least for console. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VVarhead 185 Posted October 30, 2019 I want basebuilding to be removed completely. I'm probably the minority but I hate the feature and think it destroys the atmosphere and is completely contrary to the point of DayZ. 1 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Basebuilding is a must... Your argument is invalid. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fortification of existing buildings should definitely be possible. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Your argument is invalid. That's why I always liked Standalone better than the mod. How is my argument invalid? The creators of Standalone promised us an atmospheric, realistic survival experience. I don't see how shitty bases that look like shit are realistic when in reality I could just fortify an existing structure and live in that structure? How does it make sense to build some shitty wood fortress all by yourself in a survival game which would take weeks in real life? lol, every person with a brain would just move into an existing house and fortify it. Hell, every basement would be a better place to live than building huge wooden structures - also who would make the effort to build huge structures that are inferior to existing buildings in every way? It makes NO sense. Of course we don't have basements or caves in DayZ, because the devs focused on unrealistic, dumb-looking and unatmospheric basebuilding that right now only 1. destroys loot economy because clans hoard their shit there, 2. looks out of place, 3. isn't defendable, 4. is unrealistic. Also the focus on base-building is the reason why the rest of the game doesn't move forward and is still bugged to hell and doesn't even have all the features 0.62 had. Remember progress was MUCH faster when basebuilding wasn't there. Edited October 31, 2019 by VVarhead Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tarkules 153 Posted October 31, 2019 (edited) As long animals and zombies can walk through fences and towers, base building is pretty pointless. If Livonia's southern part is supposed to be "without any shelter", how one is supposed to survive there? Edited October 31, 2019 by Tarkules Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Remember progress was MUCH faster when basebuilding wasn't there. everything is wrong... progress is faster now then before... because they were making the new engine this entire time... they always wanted to add basebuilding... they added it as somewhat of a placeholder to kinda provide foundation for basebuilding... balancing and tweaking will come in a future big update where they overhaul the building.... you can make concrete structures too in the mod it was realistic... why would you want to build in an existing structure where people would always run by and raid you... why not build a hut or some shit deep in the forest where no one goes allowing you for better survival and freedom... by your logic we could go to tisy and build a base inside a bunker hangar and have it gone in 3 days because high traffic area... Not having Base building is dumb af basically.. base building is one of the foundation of One survival game... give me one survival open world game that doesn't have base building or will not eventually feature it due to early access ... Base Building as of now is only a placeholder that will be expanded in the future with obviously ability to barricade pre existing structures... and in my opinion i feel like it will come out next year this time of the year 😄 Also DayZ Expansion mod features expanded and much better base building just like in the DayZ mod and ArmA 3 Epoch/Exile mods so it's safe to say DayZ is fully back up on it's feet and playable 24/7 with end game just like DayZ mod... only thing missing is AI missions xD Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
