JesterXIII 0 Posted July 19, 2012 So, I assume everyone on this board loves and hates DayZ for a number of reasons. And I'm glad that we can return to the game day after day, death after death, and be so excited for what predetermined AI interactions could never hope to replicate.However, I would love to see/organize an event that spans across a whole server. That event would be the classic game of Capture the Flag. The idea is the same: two teams, full map, two bases, one flag. However, DayZ will have it's special spin on it. Each player participating is required to add the tag [RED] or [bLUE], although, they are not obligated to make their presence or team color known (unless they speak/type, of course.) The flag will be something of a chem light or flare, hopefully a server admin willing to host the event will be able to work out the specific item.All the while, there is still survival, zombies, and players to be concerned with. Each team will have a base in a town diagonally opposite of each other, with the flag starting in the middle (Maybe Stary Sobor? Something like that).Anyway, the idea is still in planning phase. So, please, toss in suggestions, volunteer to help, and let's see if we can do this DayZ event.Some volunteers I know we'll need:Server AdminStreamers/Recorders (preferably players)Watchers (one [Neutral] at each base who waits for the flag to be returned, and confirms the win globally)PLAYERS!!!!

kentk94 194 Posted July 19, 2012 How bout "Capture the zombie"?Stick a zombie in the middle and see who can aggro him back to camp. Make it so that the opposing team can shoot him too and then he respawns in the middle again. >) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BrokeBackBro_Drizzit 2 Posted July 19, 2012 To much kiddyness and painball simularitys and what notz. I don't like it. this is a SURVIVE A MOTHERFUKING ZOMBIE ATTACK AND people.... so this would be bad suggestion due to the fact of it voiding anything that this game is about.Keep them ideas rolling in though.

Fraggle (DayZ) 15720 Posted July 19, 2012 Yeah, it'd be fun but not really in a Day Z way. There's normal Arma multiplayer and a hundred other mods perfect for this sort of thing, more weapons too. Good luck though, just not my cup of tea. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd just like to see a player-organized event or two every now and then. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Redshift 58 Posted July 19, 2012 Don't know that I would participate personally, not really what Im looking for in the game. But at the same time I fully support the idea, in fact I fully support any and all player run events like this.Day Z is supposed to be completely sandbox, you make of the game what you want it to be. So if people want to run organized events, then that is exactly what the game should be for them. Doesnt matter if a specific event isn't for me. The fact of people getting together to run the event in the first place means that the game is a success on that front. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JesterXIII 0 Posted July 19, 2012 Epic facepalm, thanks for contributing to ruin the game with your cs/cod shits.Just looking to do an event for one day, not add a permanent feature. Hence why this isn't in the suggestions forum. I don't even play cs, or cod, or most shooters. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Redshift 58 Posted July 19, 2012 I recommend you to play them instead of wanting to do flag-races in a zombie apocalipsys.And I recommend that you pay more attention to playing the game the way you want to and less to how other people are playing it, especially if it in no way affects you. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
