New ways to get water and possibilities for actual bases.

Well, today I was playing with a few friends when it hit me. Hey if we could get enough sandbags/barbed wire we could encamp an entire small town or small village. Finding all the sandbags would be VERY VERY time consuming but holding your own town would be incredible. Maybe if there were further things just for making bases/better camps, like being able to build small wooden bunkers or sandbag structures. I think being able to do something like this would be pretty cool since in a real life situation, I personally, would barricade my house and/or neighborhood to keep out bandits and zombies alike.

Then to further add to this 'survival' factor, maybe if it were possible, add some sort of way you could build a water collection system for rain and what not. Also building farms (Animal and vegetables/fruits alike) would be pretty cool but that is something that would be hard to do. Just to add a more civil sort of 'survival' addition to the game. Instead of the 'hey gimme your beans or your face will be gone' kind of survival. I don't know if I am asking way to much or if these ideas would actually be cool for the game/beneficial.

On a side note maybe we could also transfer this great DayZ gameplay over to a CUSTOM map made just for DayZ. Full of open landscapes and bigger cities than Cherno. After playing DayZ since it came out, I personally would like to bring my character to another landscape. I am sure some of you agree?

Well there are some of my suggestions. Please if you think these are garbage or stupid then please say 'these blow big ones' in the nicest of ways.

Thanks everyone and enjoy your apocalypse! :)

+1 all this. But probally won't be possible as a mod for arma 2 and will only be able to be achieved as a standalone game.

That was exactly what I was thinking for most of this but the map CAN be made and easily encorporated into the game.

The bunkers would be easy to make, but the rain collection and farming would be a bit more difficult.

Player-made bases are already planned I believe, also I am pretty sure this has been suggested before.

well, there's no way you can barricade a town to make it your own. It doesn't work, trust me! Zombies will keep spawning there, and every other player will pass by too. New kinds of structures of barricades would be very nice, but not something as big as sandbag bunker. Still along the lines of barbed wire and tank traps would be nice.

Me and my friends currently have a base consisting of 8 tents and a lot of barbed wire in the middle of the bush. So I know what I'm talking about.

Well I kinda just threw a buch of things in here, it was just what I was thinking so I wrote it down. Which one do you think was already suggested if you don't mind me asking?
