DayZ Tourist Maps Item tweak

Recommended Posts

Get rid of On Screen map display ... make it so you can watch the map yourself.. physically... the map you have opened and you use your eyes to look at it also zoom in with Eye focus or what ever it's called... not open it for others to see a nice good looking map and you stuck with the almost all white doo doo on your monitor... that would be cool 🙂 i belive it was already in game one time... atleast it was in a glitch form... it opens up the map on the screen... and you exit it and your charracter is still holding an unfolded map... that was cool

Also increase the spawn rate of the Tourist Maps... it's kinda stupid i find more AK's then a tourist map imo 😛



 EDIT: Here's a picture of what i mean... you open the map and look at it... just without the Map Overlay/Interface where you can zoom and all that...

I second this. Used to be able to look at the map itself (not at the "Arma editor interface", to call it somehow) while open but not anymore. So if someone is with you he can point it with the F7 gesture and look at the same map.

While playing yesterday in Livonia with others we had trouble trying to find what we saw in map while I was seeing the "Arma editor interface" and they seeing the actual map opened in my hands. It is crucial that all are watching the same and a hundred times more cool map than the "Arma editor interface".

Also it feels unrealistic to be able to zoom in or out in the "Arma editor interface" and appear/disapear buildings, green forest mass, rivers, ponds, electrical cables, city names...

Please devs, consider this for the next updates. In my opinion I would completelly remove what I call the "Arma editor interface".

I think maps should also have a higher chance of spawning at gas stations but I don't think that is its own spawn entity.

what? what do you mean? you mean it falls under some loot category so if you increase that you also increase the map spawn rate... and it's not possible to increase just the map spawnrate probably.. But what i really want... is to remove like he said... ArmA map interface and have us look at the actual map and not cover the screen with map interface 😛

what i mean is i dont think there is a specific gas station spawn identity meaning that if you increase the spawn rate of maps perhaps it will increase their spawn rate across the entire world.  I could be completely wrong as I have no idea about how this stuff actually works, just a guess.
