Good day folk!

We would like to try and populate our EPOCH server a little more and to do this, we were thinking of adding some mods to it. We didn't want three or four people to decide on a particular mod for the server so we are asking YOU! If you have an idea for some mods to be put on our EPOCH please list post them below. But we are not just looking for mods, we are also looking for ideas to help that "New Spawn", Things such as every player starting out with a 10oz bar of Silver or a weapon, or both. Like I mentioned above, it's for everyone else to decide and not 3-4 people. We'll choose the popular ideas and do a poll, and go from there.
Thanks,
[CKW] Achilles- Forum Officer

List of suggestions so far:
1. More buildings through out the map (Complete)
2. Bikes from toolboxes (Sure the mod is out there)
3. More traders that you can sell more/ buy more (May be doable)
4. Spawn with gun (Doable)
5. Reduce the op-ness of the AI (In progess)

from playing on other servers i've found some cool ideas that help the game move a little faster. first is the toolbox unpacking into a bicycle and repacking into a toolbox. Second is more buildings added to towns to give you more loot options, for example add another fire station to cherno or electro, add more stuff at airfields like hangers or barracks. Third make new towns or military out posts, with this idea you could put a town or base on the island of skalisty or add life to the northern part of the map. And Fourth add some more traders on the map that can buy or sell guns you can't normally sell like a m16 or ak 107 pso, these traders could be placed in a new city that you made or in a big city that players travel to a lot. some other ideas is lower the AI difficality and how many spawn around the map so they don't instantly aim at your head and one shot you every time even with hand guns. it would also be nice to start with a gun when there are AI around so that when you spawn and an AI is right there you at least have a fighting chance. i believe that if some or all of this is put in eventually more people should join as it gives them a lot more to explore and faster for them to get pretty good gear.

How about take clothes at AI missions
Vehicle repair shops
Select Spawn
Jets
Tanks
sleeping in tents heals
A radio is a pretty common item, but all you can do is listen. It'd be nice to be able to call for support or an evac.
Ai bases
safezones

Maybe add an AI city at Stalitsky Island?
Just make it so there's a certain amount of AI at one time and a respawn time of Ten minutes per group so a player can loot what he can and get out.

Gear wise, I think they should have low tier gear.
And maybe a map and a toolbox?

Maybe you guys could add I more vehicles. Like on Youtube I see other vehicles, like planes that can land in water, different types of vans, and other vehicles. I also suggest that you advertise the Epoch Server more. There are only around 4 people who play on the server and stay on it. Plus basically everyone that plays on the Epoch is a hero. There are a lot of people on the regular DayZ server and I wish the Epoch had more people. I think you should say on the regular DayZ server that we also have an Epoch server. I think that would bring in more people.
