#Sleepy 572 Posted October 3, 2012 I understand these aren't made by the DayZ team but to my knowledge aren't all of these maps created by Bohemia Interactive and they've been modified for the DayZ play style? If anything Bohemia Interactive owns the majority if not all of the Licensing to these maps. From my perspective it gives DayZ players more fun to have, and Bohemia Interactive more money to make.Now correct me if I'm wrong since I could be, I didn't look to much into it. But I assumed that if DayZ had five maps instead of one, more people would be willing to purchase Standalone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CerebralZombie (DayZ) 151 Posted October 3, 2012 Yeah some are just edited maps that are already in Arma II, and others are user made. So you want the maps that are supposedly, "Public server only" to be able to be used in a "Private hive"? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd rather have many servers for my gear to be carried over to like the current Chernarus Hive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kmach1ne 15 Posted October 3, 2012 The system they have now is fine. I think a lot of problems would arise if they tried to port everything between all the maps. Plus what do you expect? Lets go into lingor for 15 minute and get loaded with gear and just transfer back over to a chernarus server and spawn on the coast with a L85 and a DMR. Doesn't seem reasonable with the current system.If any of the maps should be accepted as a standalone map, it would be Lingor no doubt. That map is crazy fun. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mad Z 51 Posted October 3, 2012 Most of the these maps have a central hive according to what host supports the map. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

S1ippery Jim 139 Posted October 3, 2012 Not like that, all the Lingor Servers have there own hives, same with the other maps.No, Vilayer maps have their own hive which is why your character carries over across different servers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
#Sleepy 572 Posted October 3, 2012 No, Vilayer maps have their own hive which is why your character carries over across different serversUgh I know this, I was saying that the maps should be hosted on the DayZ hives. Except there should be different hives per Map. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hawc 63 Posted October 3, 2012 Only Utes and Takistan are official.My guess as to why they are not supported is you would need one hive for each map, that's 5 x 1M users which is alot. Since this mod is only in alpha this is unnecessary costs, maybe in beta(which won't happen because of standalone). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

big_t 66 Posted October 3, 2012 Utes is a small island map with lots of military loot. It's basically a PvP funland with many gun fights. You spawn back fast and gear up quickly so dying is not so heartbreaking. It's a nice break from the regular Chern and Lingor and you can brush up on your rifling skills. I've had many good times and good shoot outs !!Also you don't have to download a map or anything just type in"Utes" in the dayzcommander or six launcher filter.

Zombie Gladiator 10 Posted October 4, 2012 Utes is the map you do boot camp in in ArmA 2. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
