Rick the Survivor 37 Posted October 10, 2012 Possibly #1I saw a recent post about green mountain being haunted in the forums so I though about how ghosts and stuff do not fit into a zombie game. But maybe the storyline behind dayZ would be the radio transmissions. This used to be a myth, and the transmissions are random deer stands around the map, but this would be cool to have in the standalone though. It would be a fun thing to be trying to figure how the apocalypse started while trying to stay alive.Possibly #2In the stand alone zombie hoards will move around randomly around the map not just spawning in cities. Maybe green mountain could have locations of zombies broadcasted over radio. (you would have to have a radio though). i dont know how that would work in an apocalypse but its just an idea.Also leave any other ideas for the radio transmissions down below. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gortias 1 Posted October 10, 2012 Maybe the transmissions could lead to random bunkers around the map where you can find stuff Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fraggle (DayZ) 15720 Posted October 10, 2012 Both of these things are planned. The standalone will have a backstory, but only if the player want's to try to find out what happened. All spawn behaviours, for weapons and zeds are being re-written so will be completely different. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

boxman80 964 Posted October 10, 2012 Im personally looking forward to having a bit of a story in there for us to stumble across and to help set the scene and improve the immersion. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
apache25 133 Posted October 10, 2012 what about a radio signal from france that says "fuck off you no gettin my snails and frogs legs zumbiez" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
indominator 95 Posted October 10, 2012 yes for radio transmission, but no for bacstory in it. What about when we add survivor camps we can transmit locations throught it, so everyone who has one can know where the other "friendly" bases are, or you can transmit a false location. Maybe you can hear in morse code the location of a crashed heli or APC that got swarmed by zombies Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
