low population servers - spawn AI guards

[slartibartfast (DayZ) 77]

It is all very well having those pesky zeds in all our favourite military camps. ;)

How about having random NPC guard patrols on low population servers?

They could spawn away from towns or in the camps and airfields. It would keep us night time players a little more honest.

Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah, no. I'm going to say this before anyone else does. This has been suggested on these forums since the beginning of time. Kbai.

Rocket has already mentioned that he is strongly opposed to any sort of AI outside of zombies. I don't think implementing AI that does this would be a very good solution to keeping servers feeling populated. I think Zombie hoards would be better implemented here instead.

It isn't really a matter of making the servers feel populated. It is more about adding a random element. Something in a ghillie suit that won't slow down inside a building and doesn't need to be stood beside you to do damage.

Zombie hoarded during peak times would be pretty awesome.

I like it but take the guards and make them zombies and make them wait in corners of common loot spots. Surprise surprise.

PandaDragonThing - silent, stealth zeds. I'm not sure my heart could take it. Brilliant idea. They could smash through walls in supermarkets and drop down from ceilings in factories and barns.

Be nice to make the zeds a more apparent force in the game, even though the devs have no interest in it and they state it them selves. Make the game a shit tonne funner and scarier while encouraging more people being friendly and severely limiting the # of bandits.
