paladin1128 9 Posted July 12, 2012 I have read several comments on the forums and on the net in general lamenting the lack of any end goal beyond simple survival and accumulation of gear.We already have the option of repairing helicopters which seems to be the biggest project players can currently undertake. How about adding an aircraft carrier off the coast, near the edge of the map. Make the ship unaccessible except for from the air. Give players the option of "escape" by flying to the aircraft carrier and then their character is retired with some kind of reward screen, like the dance party screens from the ARMA Evolution MP missions. After 5-10 minutes of that, the character is retired and a new survivor re-spawns on the beach.Maybe, if possible, these new characters would have some kind of marking, like a medal, or an armband, or something similar, indicating the player has managed to get a character to "escape" x amount of times. If a player gets to the carrier 4 times with various survivors, their new incarnation would have 4 medals on the chest, or an armband of whatever color for that number of escapes.

lesovikk1@hotmail.co.uk 2 Posted July 12, 2012 The idea is to survive as long as possible, that is the aim of the game. Although a running story line of clues would be nice, to suggest how the infection was started, how it spread, and how society completely collapsed.I disagree with the idea of a ending, the purpose is to survive, if you complete the game to respawn, it defeats this objective. I also disgree with "medals", dayz isnt implementing a ranking system or "whos the best because they have done this", Dayz is all about survival, who can survive the longest from the items they find and how they use them. Another point about medals, Dayz aims to be a "real life zombie simulator", so going along that idea, if the zombie appoclypse was real, 1: you wouldnt escape 2: you wouldnt get a medal for surviving.
