New map to have border between two countries?

[Stefanohbody 6]

I was in a forum talking about a new map for the stand-alone game, and I thought that I would bring my idea to the suggestion area. If DayZ were to completely revamp the playable map, I think that including a border in the middle of the map would greatly increase the map's capabilities. Just imagine Chernarus split in two by a large and swift river that is almost impossible to swim across. Place large (suspension?) bridges linking the two sides. This would introduce bridges as new areas that would be highly occupied by players. We already have the idea of cities and military bases being popular, and I think that borders and bridges have the potential to do much of the same. And of course, traveling between the two countries would not be limited to only those bridges. Boats will become incredibly valuable. And to prevent players from staying on one side of the map, certain locations can be special to that country. Maybe place a huge hospital on one country, and a huge food store on another country. Maybe bandits will group together and try to control one country. This can launch an epic fight. Could you imagine seeing a bus full of bandits driving over a bridge and into a blockade of friendly survivors? Can you imagine watching as boats launch from one side of the river to invade the coast city of the other country? This will introduce SO many new kind of interactions that dayz can really benefit from. The key here is keep it balanced, and if you guys are willing to give this idea the support it needs, I can really imagine this becoming a fantastic aspect. Thanks for reading! :)

I'd love to see another map.

Personally, I hope the standalone map(s) are either better designed, or based off a place far away from eastern europe. I mean, I like the map, but after 2 months of playing on the same map, even if it is 225 square kilometers, gets a little old.
