DayZ game modes

[silkyskills 59]

Hi everyone, new to the forum so forgive me if this topic has been done already. B)

I watched a live stream the other day which was based on hunger games, not sure if you saw it, they didn't go about it very well but the idea was good .

It started with around 20/30 people paired in two's in a circle around a few tents, cars, which might have items in and might not, there was a count down and the player either had to run and search the items or run to the forests and then go and kit up for the kill, the winner was the pair left alive.

What i was wondering was do you have an idea for a game mode?

Here are my ideas, some/all may be crap.. :D

1. Tent hunt lingor island

There are 100 placed tents across a server which each have a mountain dew in them, you basically have to drink as many as you can to win the game, everyone is still allowed to shoot on sight and gear up and per normal with the spawn points being round the outside of the map, and a time limit will be in place.

2. Zombies

Just like infected on cod but in Cherno or some sort of new town map.

3. Paint ball mode

You would start as equal teams each side one dressed in red and one in blue and once you shoot somebody they instantly change colour and become a member of your team, the one who had the most at the end would win. You could play this in a town or across a bigger area, image the chaos.

The first idea is doable.

But the rest? That's just changing the game into something it never was.

(No need to tell me that "DayZ is about survival, so killing zombies wave after wave IS kinda what DayZ is about.")

Games evolve, Dayz could still stay the same but it could have a load of side modes for a more fun approach.

Doesn't fit the atmosphere of the game if there's some silly game-modes to pick from.

And I've never heard Rocket say anything good about game-modes.

Sounds to me like you love my idea

Lol i want to see you shooting a Z with a paintball gun..."Hey, you're hit...you're out OUT OUT OUCH!"

My group has been playing capture the flag with another group over our ural for quite some time.

Basically, DayZ has many "modes", you merely need to find/enact them.

So basically you want a few missions for ArmA II just under the name of DayZ.

Despite all that sarcasm, I do, actually. But in a different way.

Player-created events in the sense of your first opinion (Find tents, bring stuff back as proof.) would be kinda interesting, and I'd play it every now and then.

Nah if people wanted to do hunger games, they could host it like a community event. Or zombie survival, stand in the middle of cherno and start firing of your FAL, But gamemodes I do not agree with.
