DayzBandito 19 Posted August 16, 2012 So i have been thinking of an idea lately now just image you're a lone Survivor/Bandit traversing the country side. Are you immersed yet? Good!Now let's also say you have a radio when all the sudden *static* Mayday Mayday *static* plane/helicopter going down in grid 084 122 *end transmission*.And then if you are close a plane will crash or something along those lines. You and possibly your friends we all know you don't really have can run to its location or go to try and be a bandit. This could provide good action with good reward.Reason why i thinks it sounds good.*random locations to stop server/hoppers and the such.*good loot spawns*everyone who has a radio will know for some good ol' action*I feel (dont know about others) it will add to immersion and i get in my element when i play dayz man.Thoughts? i figured this would be best implemented in the standalone version.

Hetstaine 10852 Posted August 16, 2012 Similar ... 9. Q. Chances of an overflight by a military plane..just cosmetic for atmosphere.A: I would prefer all this kind of thing to come from players. I just need to give them the tools to achieve this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DemonGroover 8836 Posted August 16, 2012 I do like the idea of random events. The more the better. Maybe once per server restart there could be a mayday like you said and a large plane crashes? Perhaps a fighter jet could scream across the sky and plummet into the ground?Anything's possible right? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
omgwtfbbq (DayZ) 1069 Posted August 16, 2012 There is a crashed C-130J model in the game. The plane could fly in, and then turn into the crash site. Might have the best gear in it (Ghillie suit, NVGs, guns, maybe even a UAZ/Ural in it) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kreatura (DayZ) 27 Posted August 16, 2012 this sounds like a good idea to me, think it would be best to have more than just 1 though to stop every person in the server camping it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DayzBandito 19 Posted August 16, 2012 this sounds like a good idea to me, think it would be best to have more than just 1 though to stop every person in the server camping it Yeah i figured there would be multiple all at different times but thats what makes something fun. Danger. its what makes it a challange if someone is camping be smart look for snipers before aproaching Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
