Up Car Spawns

[sung]

I believe we should have more cars spawning in-game to help with gameplay and moving around while the Lore is fresh and the player count is low.

I don't think it's very enjoyable having to run from Berezino to Lopatino Castle depending on what group is most active at the time you're online.

It'll help with making the map feel smaller as well. It's essentially the 'fast travel' Roland wants but in a better way since we aren't using our powers to teleport everywhere.

Yeah I definitely agreed with this suggestion that was made by a few people in the carving up Chernarus thread. I would love for there to be more cars; really makes sense to have a lot more vehicles this far into the infection too. Hooooooge +1 from me!

[Millie]

Yes please. Make them dirt common. More cars means easier travel and an effectively smaller map. It's a great solution to the problems created by low numbers and it can easily be fine-tuned in the future to adjust to fluctuating population.

Yes

More car spawns. 100+. Make them despawn after 24 hours so nobody gets attached to them.

Honestly, like one every 2-3 towns. And make em last for like 12-24 hours, this way they are constantly changing hands and being used and utilized, when people have the means to travel they will. By making them common with a quick respawn, you use them to get around and find interactions and be able to find one again no problem the next day or two which also discourages stashing them/using them as a mobile tent.

At the end of the day DayZRP is about interactions right, and right now more than ever we need to be promoting as many interactions as possible. +1

More car spawns and make them despawn after 24 hours if they aren't driven (if possible) or at least interacted with. They should be used for mobility and not hoarding/storage.

[Player 1]

Why not? Helps players get to those RP hubs faster. 

[Worldclass]

ya it doesn't make since that there is not cars around 

[Banshee]

1+

I'd like to see the car spawns increased and maybe even doubled, as it'll make the map feel as bit smaller compared to having to go everywhere on foot. Having them de-spawn after not having been interacted with for 24/28 hours is also not a bad idea, as I have a suspicion that 50%+ of the current cars that are on the server are stashed somewhere deep in a forest never to see the light again. Cars should be used for transportation and transporting goods, not for storing and hoarding gear somewhere deep in the forest.

[Duplessis]

I see no reason not to have more cars. As others have stated, it will help people move around faster.

Also, for everyone that answers yes please leave 1 bean, it'd be greatly appreciated

+1 This is a win, win for everyone if more vehicles spawned in. It would help people get to locations faster instead of taking ages running from one end of the map to the other. I agree as others said to making them despawn after a certain period of time if they aren't interacted with to stop hording.

Yes from me

I really liked and supporting this idea , whatever it is , despawning them 24 hours later will be make players understand hoarding cars will be useless..

Absolutely +1 from me. But I don’t agree with @Hofer saying despawn after 24h maybe after 7 days. Up car parts too if needed.

edit- omg just read through and most people say 24h despawns I’m in the minority I guess lol

I would be down for adding a few more for cars in 100%. However, main issue at the moment is not that we lack cats it's people hoarding them previously in bases... Which isn't a huge problem anymore.

If you increase +200 car spawn but give them 7 day lifespan, people will still try hoard them all. 10 people gang will drive 10 cars. Our people in this community is greedy.I'm not telling it for flame , even i'm greedy too. But giving them 24h lifespan will make greedy people give up about hoarding them.

[Knight]

Cars should have a 24 hour life span so there can be more and not be used as gun stashes.

[Dookie]

All cars do is help RP in my opinion.

I can get from Zeleno to Berezino in 15min and get RP, then go back to Zeleno and encounter the people there and on the way all that in 2 hours instead of 5.

+1

[Chewy]

I think more cars would be a good idea, just not *too* many more. It's more than likely going to be a nightmare driving when there's a conglomerate of 20+ people/other entities when you enter a crowded area, and server performance could be potentially impacted. However if we find the sweet spot to how many cars the server can handle at X Y and Z amount of players per server, I don't see why not.

+1.

You right you right
I now change my opinion, up car spawns and despawn them... but after 48h not 24h  

[cjackson821]

I’m all for this as long as people stop going around and stripping perfectly good cars so no one else can get them. Can’t tell you how many times I find a car, nothing wrong with it, but 1 wheel and no parts....

Just make cars a free item shop item for everyone so we can each spawn 1 car a week 

[GG Boys]

Cars seem fine the way they are to me. I find plenty. I also see plenty that are just hoarded inside of bases ive raided.

I have seen the opposite excluding cars spawned in mil spots. But then again I haven't hit every car spot, but the ones I have passed, have been empty.

Any update on this from Whitename/Rolle? I think it's the most unanimous poll I've ever seen
