- I don't know if it's in the game because I don't have it but it would be cool to carve out mountains and adding support beams to prevent your cave from caving in.

- Also building a house in a tree would be cool unless you decide in the future your able to knock down trees instead of them being there forever.

- Adding different environments with different mobs and such, hostile/passive

- Hunter's knife for killing shit for food

- Safe post's to prevent spawnkill

Just some ideas to help further develop the game, obviously doesn't have to be used or is already in consideration or in the game but I wouldn't know just trying to help.

Interesting.


1. Doubt that'd ever happen.

2. Not sure what you mean, you can already build houses in trees.

3. Sounds a lot like asking for them to copy MineCraft, but they are planning on adding more NPCs.

4. This pretty much falls into the suggestion of adding tools for specific things.

5. No, that's not what the game is about, if you want a friendly post, build one yourself.

i think they should add scoped rifles not like military grade but like hunting rifles like a 30-06 or a 308 or a 270 or even like a 22 longrifle

But it should have difficult and realistic ballistics (wind, gravity, sight picture + alignment, Coriolis, riflery fundamentals) to weed out the assholes who'd sit on-top of their fort and snipe random people for no reason.

digging in mountains and having supports to stop them from caving in would be cool

but the problem is people would exploit a glitch and probably grief on a massive scale

I agree, any change to the environment, that removes parts of it would just cause people to grief more, within a day there wouldn't be any more mountains

I think they should add a new area, such as a millitary base or outpost, where you can find millitary-grade weapons (M16A4, M9, Rocket launchers, etc.). Instead of going to a factory, which is somewhat unrealistic.

I disagree. We don't need this to be Arma.

This. That was the pure reason why the barracks and the airfield were littered with bandits with sniper rifles waiting to pick you off and take your stuff.

Also, until the construction is perfected, we can't have this as an option:

Step 1) Get a group of people.
Step 2) Find area with high value loot.
Step 3) Block off all loot except to your group.

There, if you have the manpower you can indefinitely keep control of the area.

You couldn't have worded what I was thinking more perfectly than that ^ Hats off to you sir.

Then you just rate it agree and move on instead of making an entire post about it.

I disagree with your post, sir, that I not only have RATED your post, but I have also REPLIED to it! This you have caused me to disagree so!

I really do think that non-combat or limited-combat tools would be a great feature, putting emphasis on survival rather than murder. There should be less features for the bandits to use and more for the peacemakers.

Caves in the unity engine are impossible.
Unity as it is simply cannot lower terrain horizontally, only vertically.
They would either have to script a tool for it in Unity which would take a long, LONG time, and would be very... hard (now I am not saying Garry can't code that, I am saying it wouldn't be worth the days it would take), build a mountain out of Rock props/models and somehow use that to create them, or make a model of a mountain with Caves carved in, and implement them into the game, which could quite possibly make the game VERY laggy.

Caves are stupid, this game isn't about going into caves and hiding with respawning minerals on the walls or whatever, this is about surviving and rebuilding after a mass event that caused an apocalypse.
