delloc 2 Posted July 17, 2012 I have played DayZ for some time now and have been a bandit and trusting survivor. For the bandits, the game is essentially complete, well maybe some more guns are needed. For survivors it’s a little different, there is nothing past getting the basics. Yes you can get a car, tent, a bunch of tents, more cars, but then what?We all know this is an open ended scenario and I am not looking to change that, but really there is nothing more to do from a survival standpoint once you get a knife, water bottle, matches, and a hatchet. Anything beyond this is just making life after a death easier.This is an alpha, lets break some shit and put in crazy fun stuff; People building forts, a zombie safe zone device that once setup will attract zombies in a town and if you kill all the zombies you clear the town, or something else radical and fun playing with, because right now survival == boring.

Benlandia 73 Posted July 17, 2012 After you get the basics down, the only thing really left to do is kill people.More content will be added in the future, don't you worry. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dancingg 27 Posted July 17, 2012 Set goals for yourself. See how long you can survive with no weapons. Or set an ammo limit to yourself. See how long it takes you to run from one end of the map to the other. Full sprint. Only carrying food/drinks.There's many possibilities to keep things interesting. Just gotta think them up.

Red_Sky 140 Posted July 17, 2012 There are a lot of things many would consider virtually impossible due to the dangers of Chernarus.Make of a list of these impossible things.Then do them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
delloc 2 Posted July 17, 2012 (edited) So basically the response is; Go find something to do that the game allows, because the sandbox mode, but really isn't something to "do".I think this really goes to the "What's next" question... Will Day Z ever be more than the first stage of a disaster scenario? For those that don't understand what I am talking about, here is the breakdown. Disasters, major ones anyway, have stages. The first is a complete social and authority breakdown. This stage sees a dangerous world where everyone is really on their own. There is no law enforcement, government, or support system for anyone and the strong/prepared survive. Right now that is Day Z, but the game has elements of stage two; People having their supplies, immediate needs met, and start looking for others to create a group.So are we ever going to get to stage 2 or beyond? Or is this always to remain in stage 1? Edited July 17, 2012 by Eston Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
