Haplo (DayZ) 44 Posted August 16, 2012 There are heaps of shipping containers in Chernarus, zombies even spawn inside them. Being able to use them as bases would be cool in a number of ways.This adds more teamwork in getting a truck/crane to move the container. Locks could be added to the loot pile, which can be used to secure the container. The keys log off with your character, but locks can be bypassed with a toolkit.I know Rocket wants to implement base building, though it became too messy above ground, but, there are a limited number of these containers in Chernarus and I certainly don't think it would break the game. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bobcomss 189 Posted August 16, 2012 Nice thought actually Adding a crane truck/lorry could be interesting, but locks would have to be breakable e.g. from gun fire or a hatchet/crowbar Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Haplo (DayZ) 44 Posted August 16, 2012 Yeah good point. That should come with the cost of noise though, toolkits would be quieter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Haplo (DayZ) 44 Posted August 16, 2012 As I stated in my first post Bobcomss, there are already a limited number of shipping containers in Chernarus, it would not end up like that Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
