RedPuma 0 Posted August 16, 2012 I recently wondered about all the useless powerlines in chernarus and thought: What if you could actually restore the power? This could be combined with a temporal curement of the infection (e.g. all zombies die and dont respawn for 2 hours or sth. like that).The full story goes like this:- 20 survivors or more work together and gather materials to repair all power stations in chernarus- There are a couple of buttons at the stations that have to be pressed simultaneously (by e.g. 20 players) to fully restore the power in chernarus (only locally on the server of course), this needs excessive teamplay and would be like a giant world event- now that it has enough power the green mountain facility starts to spray some kind of pesticide/chemical in the air which kills all zombies in chernarus and prevents them from respawning for 1 or 2 hours. This would be a really good reward for all the teamwork- The power stations start breaking down after 1 or 2 hours as they where only fixed provisorily, green mountain is out of power and the zombies respawn, everything goes back to normalMaybe people will kill each other after the power is restored (to have all the free loot for themselves), but this would just add a special kind of thrill to the whole thing. I mean working together to reach a goal and killing each other later is normal in DayZ, but this would be a new dimension.Wouldn't this be a great feature?

RedPuma 0 Posted August 16, 2012 Ok, so...1. Get all your friends to server hop2.Fix the power.3.loot4.Repeat1. you'd have to gather materials first2. you'd could implement some kind of state in the hive which globally says: ok this player restored the power today, so he cant do it again for today.

blueface 13 Posted August 16, 2012 Fixing up the generators will give power to cities and add double the zombies and increase aggro range. There will be alot more zombiesCuz all see the light from city and hear the stuff working and go there to eat. But there needs to be something that the players want. Also the cities on th currnet map are too small We need new map with bigger cities. US map or West europe map. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RedPuma 0 Posted August 16, 2012 Guys, its an idea. I didn't say that it would work out right now (with all the server hopping, hacking, duping etc.), but wanted to tell it others.In what universe are zombies an obstacle to looting?Of course they are no real force right now but maybe they'll be patched in the future.
