Vehicles Suggestion + Extras

Recommended Posts

HeLLo,

Have a idea/suggestion for day z team. I know there isn't a whole lot of cars and most of the servers are getting filled up with players and only having like 10 or less vehicles/wrecks around the map isn't quite a enough for everybody. If its possible I believe that each town on the map should have at-least 1 or 2 cars and up to 3 in the bigger cities such as Cherno and Elektro.

For the second idea there should be a way to add your friends on the game so when they log in you can see them on your map because it is easy to get lost on that map when you accidentally veer off course from your friend's and be searching for hours trying to find him again but you pretty much go further away from each other.

For the third idea zombies should not be able to just waltz through the closed doors or even through walls of buildings the buildings should offer a safe haven for players to camp out at and not have to worry about zombies just walking through the wall or even through the door its sort of a weird bug or glitch for the zombies being able to walk through doors,walls, and even climb ladders(climbing ladders is so unrealistic for zombies from the character they developed over the movies and games they been popular in).

For the fourth idea please add the helicopter back in and figure out a way to block out the radar on the map to avoid the helicopter being over powered and being able to scan the map for other player camp sites. Maybe add a black circle of your own in the script to cover over the radar. I know there is another radar above to as well might have to add in a black rectangular box to cover that one and not cover up the compass above.

For the fifth idea add in more vehicle types such as some UAV machine guns, some more vehicles with weapons on them and they can be re-armed by bullets you find on the game. If you add in more vehicles add in some more zombies surrounding the vehicles more to make it a challenge to get to the vehicle. Also zombies should be able to do damage to the vehicles but such as exposed vehicles such as an ATV the zombies should be able to hurt the player on those vehicles as their body is exposed to the outside world.

For the last idea of them all please add in more inventory items that you can find throughout the map such as bigger tents which require a car to pick them up. More weapons or ability to equip weapons to un-arm vehicles and be able to fire them as either a driver or a passenger. Also weapons should be upgrade-able like for instance you have a M4A1 and the more zombies you killed you get upgraded to a M4A1 CCO after a while like sort of have a reward system. I really do get the idea that you want go full blown realistic on this game but at-least add in a little more fun killing zombies and killing bandits.

If you read my ideas I want to thank you for taking your time reading through my ideas they are good ideas but is it right for your day z mission just something you have to think about over time. Probably depends on the direction your going with it.

Who defines realistic zombies? They aren't realistic, so in the end it all comes down to how creative you are. How can a zombie be unrealistic if it's something fictional?

Basically you want everyone and their mother to have a vehicle. I like the fact that this game is actually a... yes, you guessed it, survival game/simulator. It's easy as it is now. You're just not trying hard enough.

Learn to live with the game mechanism like the rest. I've been playing this game since its early release and I haven't had a problem with "veering off in other directions from your friends". So communicate? Why do you want to approach every single little thing by implementing shortcuts to everything. You want this game to be Left 4 Dead 2?

Zombies going through doors, gates etcetera is a bug. File a bug-report if one is not existent (which I very much doubt) Remind you, it's Alpha and bugs are prone to happen. It's a privilege, not a right to play this modification. Be glad with what you got and help the developer team by filing bug reports and feedback (such as this... to a certain extent)

Don't know about machine-guns on vehicles. I can imagine how people will just ride through cities easily and mow down everyone in split seconds. More vehicle/vehicle models would be nice but I think I read somewhere that's going to get implemented soon enough.

A reward-system for increased stats? Are you insane, person? That was most possibly the worst suggestion I've ever heard. Mind you, it's a realistic survival zombie game. There's a reason why you waltz around the airfield/strips/barracks/stands for gear. There's a reason you venture north and explore the landscape. If you want to get rewarded for kills and stats, try Battlefield or Call of Duty, I think their "reward system" will fit you a bit better.

Sorry if I came off as rude but this is my genuine reply to your thread. Appreciate the feedback and suggestions, always nice to see threads like these. Shows people are interested in shaping up the game to what it'll be like in the official release.

Cheers.
