Occupied city's and towns

[Allie (DayZ) 97]

Hi all,

I am surprised i am not seeing anybody taking resident in one of the towns.

I like to hang around in one town, i was even thinking of making the town mine :)

After a couple of weeks playing this mostlely solo, it is getting somewhat boring.

Why are we not trying on holding towns ? Its a kind of weird people start building there bases outside of the map while it in my opinion is more likely in real life people start barricading houses and other well defendable places.

I understand that we are not able to play 24 hours a day, so i understand that you think it is useless to try and barricade a city and after a couple of hours you will disconnect and you don't know what is happening in your defende town.

Thats one of the reasons i ask battle eye to up the ping on which you are kicked.

From my OFP and Arma days i know that i liked to play on US servers, sure it had a bit higher ping then servewrs close to me, but i have never had any lag on a US server while having a ping of 150.

I'm telling this because it is needed to be able to play on a higher ping server, this way it is up to your clan to find people from all over the world to populate your defended town.

So when Europe starts going to bed, the americas take over, and as soon as the americas go to sleap, the asians take over. So when it is alowed to play on a server with higher ping, we should be able to organize a group of people who will defend your town 24 hours a day.

The high ping (max 200) does not mean you have a laggy server at all, like i said my best play i had on US servers while beeing in Europe.

BlaBlaBla

You cannot go to a town and hide from zombies, You'll have to use 1000 of bullets every hour..

Zombz keep spawning, and you cannot block a doorway from zombz.. only players..

People ghost in because they`re lame and retarded, can`t win the game without abusing this.

Makes it useless to "hold" anything in this game.

Nice thought, but the way this MOD game engines works be way to easy to get into the houses via ghosting...also to many zeds in towns...out in the forest...hard to find...no zeds....safe to return too if you die...

You are right, but still..... :)

Let me have my daydreams :)

The barbed wire should work agains zombies as it does to human players.

Ping is limited because the higher your ping the harder it becomes to hit you with bullets. A gunfight between me and a 350 ping Aus player would be retarded... They'd be teleporting all over my screen.
