Map and Antenna Ideas

 

First Idea:

 

The Fun Pimps should add in a map trading system so others can share what they have explored, especially would be useful in random generated maps. Maybe craft the map and the other player would read it like reading schematics.

 

Second Idea:

 

Be able to construct an antenna to install in a player's base to communicate via voice chat for longer distances.

In my opinion, a cool addition to that is that the map copy that you get is imprecise, so it may be missing some key features, or in some place be wrong, not because of maliciousness from the person creating it, but because you just miss stuff etc. Then when you visit the areas, your map gets updated with the correct information.

Well not sure if this goes here.

 

Farming:

I would like that they added the mechanic that your farms can witter, so when its fully grown you have to remeber to harvest it else it will witter/decay away in 1 day ingame time. "not disapperaing but make a dried out version of the plant. that would make people care more about it, then like now where you dont need to worry about anything, food is so damn easy to come by, once you planted 5 of each and replanted after 4-5 harvests you have more then enough to survive forever..

 

Food and water:

 

Aswell as the plants you harvest food and water should be able to go bad, rot, making it bad for you to eat/drink..

 

The above once would then prevent players from making huge stockpiles of 400 plus of each and never have to worry about going short..

 

Electrical:

Need to add a generator to provide electricity, wich then use fuel as means of powering up your lights "add more light sourcses"

wich then open up a new branch of things a frigde, a freezer, a elevator wich should be slower then climbing a lader with shift held down.

Light sourcses, electrical fence and traps and much more..

 

And cement mixer would require power from the generator to run

 

Add the ability for admins to landfill, fill up empty space, so if a player like me digs out a room thats 72x72x96 blocks bick and when half the stone is gone it bugs out so tnt or rocket launcher cant even destroy rocks anymore, and rock or any other item cant fall down even though there arent anything to support it.

 

so make a command/tool wich admins can select 10x10z10y fill dirt or higher numbers, to maybe fix the problems.

 

due to the above problems even zombies dont appear near my base, no zombies no horde and on the server we are counting day 3173

 

Burn tree to make coal

Add more metals like cooper tin and so forth but should be very rare and you could then create bronze by melting tin and copper

 

Add more intens weather, raind dosent look like rain add storms add water particles that actually show "they could learn something from weather system form the game Misscreated, it looks so awesome "a dayZ clone kinda thing"

 

And i want my round corners/shapes

 

Biggest issue that needs to be adressed MINIBIKE

for the love of god REMOVE this buggy crappy thing, it causes so much trouble on every server. not a day goes by where it dissapears for players in the ground or other weird stuff, and that has such a huge impact on the servers...

 

1 minibike that goes into the ground makes everyone on that server drop to 3-4 fps, until an admin locates it and destroyes it. and when that happends 10+ times a day ARGGGH

 

So please remove it until its fixed, add a bicycle instead or any other means of traveling that are a bit faster then runing, but make sure it wont bug an entire server..

 

And the problems with minibike have exsisted for such a long time , they should have removed it long time ago.

 

No matter what game you dont leave a item in game that causes huge stability problems for longer periods of time, you put it in the game after a fix see if it works properly, if not you remove it and work on the problems, then you put it in game again after somne serious testing on a server where there are more players/testers stresstesting the bugs that where and trying to create new ones, if no major problems reveals themself it can be added to the game.

 

But there simply aint no exscuse for having an item that causes so many problems in the game.

Currently working on a list of some of the higher demanding Pimp Dreams that gamers would like to see introduced into the game that can be looked at by The Fun Pimps.

 

Please keep in mind that I went to some of the higher replied threads. I did not look on every page and I did not look on every topic. If you think something should be added, It's best to make a topic for that suggestion, get the backing from the community then I can edit the list. Please let's not try to clutter this list with suggestions and let's keep it for the "List that gets submitted). If the community backs your topic then I will update this list to show off to The Fun Pimps Team.

 

Please only post your Topic URL for review for submission. When creating your topic try to provide as much information as to how your item or suggestion would function, how it can be crafted why you think it would become useful overall. Ask the community to back you in your topic with suggestions on how to expand on that idea or just simple adding a +1 to your Topic to help raise attention and awareness.

 

Thank you..

Admin Tools

 

Allowing the admins to click on map to transport to that location would be great but adding to that if we had markers on the map for players location other then having to friend everyone it would also help.And yes I know you could do it know but would make it easier if it was just click and done.

I only have one idea for improvement, don't know if it has been mentioned before. Feathers are one of the hardest ressources to find, because you can not craft them, they seem to be rare and are also well camouflaged. I think it would get easier and more realistic if trees would contain bird nests, so if you cut them to the ground there would be a certain chance to gain feathers.

May I expand on some of these ideas

 

Sorry if I'm making a noob of myself as I'm a new player to 7dtd. I actually sat down and started actively listing things I wondered why they weren't in the game myself, many of them are on here in short.

Sleeping got me right away, you'd need to sleep or you would sucome to disease, mental instability, or illness much more quickly. Sleep or lack there of should effect the pc with upper like coffee or speed to give mental focus, or melatonin to aid in sleeping if the pc feels safe enough.

Example of being tired could be falling asleep like micro napping on horde night, see a zombie and be shooting it then your screen goes black for a second and it's attacking you instead as a consequence of lack of sleep. Also power napping for like 20 in game minutes... could lead zombies to you if you aren't careful. Things like that, I don't know how hard that would be to code but I could see it functioning like the hunger/thirst/temperature systems.

 

Being able to make rope from plant fibers to make snares to catch small animals (rabbits, chickens, pigs) or a zombie snare trap or rope net trap, make placable/retractable rope ladders (something you can throw down off a wall or hole and climb down and leave it hanging till you climb back up with a retrieve option that could look like a coil of rope piled on the ground), rope foot bridge...that sort of thing.

 

Generators, made from the small engine and gas/bio fuel. You could have electricity for lights, cooking, water filter, and defense. Generators also make noise, but an electrified fence would be a good detourant for would be invaders, along with jumper cables to hook to a battery to electrify doors and windows. There is still a lot that could be done with existing items in the game. I wish I knew coding, I'd volunteer because I like the challenge of making things work. Oh yeah, why can't you construct a simple water purifier out of dirt, sand, coal, and cloth in a jar maybe, or it could be a new option from the new still/brewing stand after alpha 15.

 

Just some thoughts I wanted to put out there, or expand on....Hopefully this is the right place to post them. Thanks for sharing and letting me share too.

Love all the great ideas here defo need electric- fishing sounds good also like the sound of trains/ mine cart but what this game REALY REALY needs is 2 seats on the MINIBIKE or JEEP with 3 spots- driver, passenger and guy stood at the back with mounted gun slot which you choose what to put there- maybe 2 pistols or ak47 or rocket launcher- also spikes on wheels- spiked ram at front all need to be built from scrap parts

 

Thanks all ;)

I'd like to add a couple little things.

 

1. Retrieving arrows/bolts from zombies. They can't all be broken. Maybe have a chance to loot 1 or 2 from the body if the zombie is killed by one.

 

2. Someone mentioned rafts. But I was thinking of expanding on that a bit. Maybe a block that floats so you can build a sort of house boat? It would have it's advantages and disadvantages. Zombies can't swim, but you can't really do much farming on a boat.

Yesss having a chance of retrieving arrows from a zombie would be cool. Not all of the arrows of course and not the ones ya shoot and miss but if it takes 3 arrows to kill a zombie then maybe get 1 back or something. Would be cool. Would help in those " Ohhhh a deer yesss, oops I jus used my last arrows fighting some zombies" times. Lol
