Asian Kid Posted October 31, 2013 Report Share Posted October 31, 2013 Epoch is a VERY good mod of Dayz but it is missing a lot.I would enjoy the game play better if the following was added: New gear system in Dayz 1.8 New sounds like in Overwatch Combat roll when you have a primary and the hop when you have a secondary More weapon pack like Overwatch and new weapon sounds maybe add the radio and a radio mod so players can talk on different channels Add fast rope with a real rope that you can see and not die from Small FOB with AI Customizable vehicles Customizable weapons http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=12077 Zombie dogs Craft-able backpacks from cow hide Nice color correction (not hard to add but have not found the best settings) Real weather like thick fog, snow, etc More base building objects New zed skins zeds are hard/difficult to kill ;) Thanks :) fallout and krnja21 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jj808 Posted October 31, 2013 Report Share Posted October 31, 2013 I would like to be able to create shipping containers somehow. I would love to use them for walls and make them lockable so people can store cars and such in them. Make is so a bicycle can be stowed in the SUVs and Helos. Add a few more weapons on the sub-machine class. Traps? That stay after the person logs off. True weather! Remove the TP throwing. I cant believe you guys wasted time on that... Over the water building. If possible... Add more vehicles. I know you had to remove them due to permissions issues but please add a few more of some type to add variety. Motorcycles? Custom Off road vehicles? Add more building and towns. *should be first really Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vex_dev Posted October 31, 2013 Report Share Posted October 31, 2013 i like epoch as it is now, but stop with faster actualizations D: i need a week to recustomize my server lol MatthewK 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krnja21 Posted October 31, 2013 Report Share Posted October 31, 2013 Someone already mentioned a stove, or a burning barrel - the ability to make fire that stays after restarts, it's a pain to go out and chop down a wood just so you can smelt those 10 copper bars that you collected :D Also the refuel thing was mentioned, ability to make a fuel tank and use it with the fuel pump and generator for making refuel stations in your base. I would like to see other things like this, items that make base building fun, like traps, maybe even trenches (with spikes? camuflaged?) A place to land your heli, a floor/celing plate with a locked door on it, maybe a big one so you can have a heli lift from within a base? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrantMcGroarty Posted October 31, 2013 Report Share Posted October 31, 2013 Modular weapon additions Chainsaw(as a tool) cuts trees in half the time, rare spawn, needs gas, loud as a as50, draws zombies to its location(and players ;) ) Platforms need structural support Persistent skins for Humanity levels or at least a choice of them once hitting a certain point Using rocks to create cinderblocks, only able to be made at certain locations (foundry buildings) and becomes a POI and a POC(point of conflict, potentially) Farming Ability to remove structures you placed to reposition them Ability to use e tool as a melee weapon similar to an axe krnja21 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BetterDeadThanZed Posted November 11, 2013 Report Share Posted November 11, 2013 That's the wonderful about Dayz. It's very modifiable. You could probably find some talented people over at opendayz.net that would be able to do most of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BSA_Meat Posted November 11, 2013 Report Share Posted November 11, 2013 Chainsaw/ Electric Chainsaw could produce lumber instead of wood or just fell trees in a shorter amount of time. chainsaw should be 3-4 as loud as generator but be self sufficient, electric should need a generator placed nearby and still produce a small amount of additional noise.

MatthewK Posted November 11, 2013 Report Share Posted November 11, 2013 The following features with ability to toggle on or off via the init, for each: Roaming AI (speak to Sarg, get him onboard) Using the same AI as above, give the ability to place static AI for custom bandit bases etc.. MISSIONS.. Loot caches guarded by bandits, that kind of thing. Vehicle Tow and Heli Lift. Only large helis and ural sized vehicles can tow/lift. Remove building parts that you own (associate all items with the playerUID, please!!) Separate database table for buildings. Mixing them up with the vehicles doesn't make sense! Self bloodbag (make it fairer on solo survivor players. screw the bandits, let them die lol) Basic set of admins tools: renew vehicle key, delete vehicle key, reset safe combo, delete item, etc.. Roaming traders (have one or two traders that just roam the land, if you find them you can get rare deals etc) Care packages etc are dropped by C-130 on parachutes (please, this really needs to be added for realism if anything) Animated heli crash sites. More time on helpful features like these and less time on toilet paper you can throw and those annoying dust clouds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MatthewK Posted November 11, 2013 Report Share Posted November 11, 2013 A modular system that allows developers to make plugins specifically for Epoch. The plugins are developed along the same lines as WordPress plugins (using special hooks etc), then once its available you simply download it, drop it into your Modules or Plugins folder and Epoch does the rest. This was something I discussed with some guys at the London hackspace over a year ago and they agreed that it's surprising nobody else has started developing this system yet. Imagine just being able to select which additional modules you want to add to your dayz Epoch installation , downloading them , placing them into your modules folder and you're done! Of course this would mean that DayZ Epoch code needs to be mostly rewritten I'm sure, but imagine the possibilities :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dyderich Posted November 11, 2013 Report Share Posted November 11, 2013 Some ideas roaming the nether brain area :) Gun emplacements (M60, M2HB, Mk19 - Soviet versions, etc.) - ability to craft a customized bunker complex Eventually have AI guards you can hire for base security More Skins....nationalities (Germans, Italians, French, Spanish, etc.) - Male & Female (definitely add more females - so they are not clones with new clothes of the same 1 model) Ability to remove anything you build Remove funky transaction emotes (you know the ones that remind you of a blowjob the avatar gives all the merchants) Ability to construct actual buildings - not the weird stuff from Epoch currently but an actual house, building, etc. Make it a long term project - taking lots of resources, special resources, etc. Ability to construct stuff via an editor (since you cannot see stuff very well while placing it...half the time its always off a bit - too high, too low, too far left, too far right) - have a way to do this via some type of editor and create a blueprint - then build it via that blueprint for PRECISE placement of all objects without floor/ceiling/wall being funky and off Better way to swap weapons from the mouse roller....click 1 or 2....for example to swap out the default weapon setup Ability to chop wood/etc without the need to place the stupid ax into your weapon slot then click on the ax to make it primary then click the actual tree to start cutting....way overcomplicated and just crappy method of doing this....leave the damn ax on the toolbelt....right click to chop or something similar....it should not take forever to swap ax for primary weapon if you need to. Built in Admin Tools Script to Epoch Mod (Disable/Enable via toggle/batch file/etc.) Built in Script Pack to Epoch Mod (Disable/Enable each script via simple toggle/batch file/etc.) MatthewK 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get complaints from players about this all the time. They'll be going through that process you describe, then a bandit will start shooting at them.. The time it takes to cancel the process, rearm your weapon and take aim is all the time the bandit needs to nail you.. Crazy eh! Just like real life , not lol Dyderich 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
