idea for new mode in standalone

[xX Wes10 Xx 3]

So i was think about it, and maybe a new game type for the standalone game that would be interesting would be something like how hungergames is. For those of you who havent seen or read it, you could have 15-24 poeple all spawn 10-15m apart with NOTHING then have a giant pile of goodies or items and food and backpacks loaded with different stuff in the center of the circle. Have it start and everyone either grabs gear, kills people or books it off, maybe make so no one can die for the forst 5 min or so, have the game last and hour or sooner or later. Your food and drink could deplenish faster than normal forcing people to loot amd find/hunt other players. Last one who survives wins. Zombies would still be there and still be a threat. To me it sounds like a thrill, with fast paced gameplay but still with the survival aspect of it. What do you guys think?

Great idea. Been thinking this for a while. Minecraft did a great version of this.

However, the best part of the hunger games is that several people died in the first minute of the game being active. Cages open and everyone rushes for gear or legs it into the woods. Some people get the weapons first and take out the weaklings.

Bah... doesn't interest me. I'd rather see new areas created, new equipment, more islands and better mechanics over other gametypes, that's just my personal opinion though.

Sounds quite interesting, but I don't think this fits into DayZ...

Not for DayZ

Last I checked, that isn't a realistic zombie apocalypse simulator. Stop suggesting it. It will never be a part of DayZ. If anybody wants to play that, someone else can make a mod.

Why would this be a "new game mode"...

Aside from the time limit and spawning in the same exact place

It is the same exact thing as Dayz, jsut downgraded.

um.....thats the point. the same thing to keep the people who play it interested, and because it would be the same thing, just a little faster paced, so maybe someone doesnt want to spend days playing one character, they just want to play dayz for a little while, they pick that mode and there you go, just a quick run

well someone has there pannies in a bunch. for one thing ive only suggested it once, for two it was just an idea, a fast paced version OF THE SAME GAME. there are still zombies, there is still survival and there are still other players to deal with, instead of the drawn on characters that last days. thats all i was saying, dont get me wrong i love the regular dayz i was just thinking that that would make an interesting option to play other than just the regular game.
