Lord Daem 15 Posted August 16, 2012 I'm hoping underground train stations. That would be awesome.In so many apocalypse games and films, people use train stations as shelter! Heck, in World War 2 when the bombs were dropping during the Blitz, Londoners took cover in Underground stations! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
afitz200 4 Posted August 30, 2012 I think being able to raid banks (if there in the game) And if u have a pickup be able to steal the vault door and put it on ur base and be able to open/close it That would also be cool if u could collect small tanks for a electric water pump so if u run out of fuel u can always have a sur-plus of water and tanks to fill with fuel instead but only have as much as u put in And garages would be cool to Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RobbL (DayZ) 26 Posted August 30, 2012 He's clearly stated in several interviews that player bases will be underground, basically ruling out all of your ideas. The underground idea is to save on memory and to stop the map being ruined by players with each base effectively being it's own instance. He's talked about dead weight traps, electric generators and even hydroponics, so we'll have to wait and see what ends up making it to the final version.Saying he's thinking of implementing underground bases doesn't rule out normal bases. Anyway, it'd be weird only being able to build bases underground when it's probably easier to implement overground bases. Plus constructing underground structures irl compared to normal bases is extremely difficult, and normal fort-type bases would probably be easier to defend against zombies Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hardcoreymp 16 Posted August 31, 2012 If you build above base areas you will see large clans barracading common areas like barracks and tents. Making it impossible for normal folk to get in.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
xximrtwoixx 104 Posted August 31, 2012 If you build above base areas you will see large clans barracading common areas like barracks and tents. Making it impossible for normal folk to get in..So what...There are no "common" areas, the whole world is your play ground and IMO you should be able to shape it to your will.Look at NW airfield the majority of it is fenced in, why not simply finish of the fence. This could also apply to the powerstation at Electro, this is authentic. If a group is large enough and abmitious enough to take over and hold an area they should be able to, its authentic. If you have a big organized group why would you raid a military base that is already mostly fortified? You would simply take it over and finish the fortificaitons/repair them.

John Spectre 32 Posted September 2, 2012 Should be both, cappable cities or neighbourhoods, and underground bases. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
