Characters locked to server and more

Recommended Posts

Just some ideas that might be interesting or might spark other ideas in your head.

Why not have characters locked to specific servers? What if when you log out your character pitches a small, hard to spot tent or sleeping bag and goes to sleep and can be killed by other people or robbed? Would make you think twice about where you will fall asleep (log out). Definitely wouldn't do it in the middle of a battle or when being chased by zombies.

This would open the door to multiple characters and also force players to play during the night time. I know its tough and there are countless problems with it but I hope it might spark some ideas.

What do you like or dislike?

but i still partially agree with you: i`d like to see data about character`s location stored to the server.

I've gotta say no. Do you realize how much griefing would happen? People would log on to DayZ for the sole purpose of finding and killing other players.

Also, tying a person to one server? No, because not everyone has the greatest internet. Many of us switch servers to help with lag.

Character/character loadout and location locked to server, would be nice, it would also prevent people from just obtaining godly shit on other servers easily, and go on a bambi hunt at cherno on another server.

Sweet mustang sally, I would follow people until they logged and fill their inventory with empty whiskey bottles so it appeared the character got drunk and lost all his gear over night.

Addon: Could we throw in medical so you could shoot someones survivor,patch'em up then attatch them to you for medical loadout and park them in the middle of cherno so when they log in its freak combat in a busy city instead of wind blown hair @ pobeda dam.
