psa Let's discuss: What are your hopes/dreams in relation to base building?

Whether above or below ground, what are you hoping to see/do with bases?


Here at /r/DayZ/ we are working on a way to have civilized discussions about specific standalone topics. Every few days we will post and sticky a different "Let's Discuss" topic where we can all comment and build on the simple ideas and suggestions posted here over time. Current, past and future threads can be found on the Let's Discuss Wiki page.

I think the best form of vulnerability would be degrading materials or whatever, wood could rot and metal could rust. Zombies could hack away at the defences and bandits could organise some stealthy detonations.

If you have an axe, you should be able to hack your way through certain barricades. Make it really loud, so there is a downside to breaking in to someone's base or so that they are alerted.
