lightnings0ul 19 Posted August 21, 2012 I just thought of a way to build the standalone servers. Why don't you just make server hives that for example can hold a maximum of 5,000 players. These 5,000 are then divided to 25 servers. And now the tricky part starts, once someone dies he may not get back on this server nor will anyone else.This will probalby result in:- a lot of action in the beginning- less killing the fewer ppl there are- a really believable world where no one just disconnects, moves around you and then reconnects- you will know the players on your server after a time resulting in a more reliable gaming environmentOh yeah and if only one is left on a server it could be shutdown and tell the player that he made it as last survivor or sth.Just something that came up to my mind and yeah I know it's a huge change and teamplay with your clan will be hard to do then... :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Venzire 76 Posted August 21, 2012 This could be added another game mode. I was originally gunna say this could be the hardcore mode but I'd rather hardcore mode be like full on actual DAYZ!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lightnings0ul 19 Posted August 21, 2012 Yeah, I would like that mode, too. But Rocket once said he isn't gonna rip the community apart by making modes...The cheater/hacker problem isn't any bigger than it is now ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lonrem 62 Posted August 21, 2012 (edited) And I will play with my friends how? One death and suddenly I'm alienated from my friends? Interesting concept for lone wolves though. Edited August 21, 2012 by Lonrem Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
elasticz 35 Posted August 21, 2012 This reminds me of the hunger games.And also, if they were to add a mode like this.How can you assume that the survivors aren't just going to try and kill eachother till only 1 stands?He could claim to be king of that server, which he basically is.

lightnings0ul 19 Posted August 21, 2012 There won't be any outside teams anymore and you'd have to play the game like it's meant to be - team up with survivors!Yeah, it could happen that ppl just kill themselves but I don't think that this will last for very long because it will take a shitload of time to find and kill 199 enemies (yeahyeah they kill themselves but still, have in mind that some guys may not even be online a lot!).

Slide885 59 Posted August 21, 2012 it would be nice to play on smaller hives with multiple servers. the you die and your out thing is total BS though. You wouldn't have enough servers to go around. their would be no point in building up any sort of base, or vehicle. Spawn in, run to electro, die, find a new server. Spawn, run to stary, die find a new server, Spawn, lagg slightly running down stairs, find a new server. does that sound like fun at all? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lightnings0ul 19 Posted August 21, 2012 You totally didn't get any point here Slide885. There is no retry as servers are created dynamically... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
