• idea for a new map landmark/building/feature

as of now the supply drop plane flies over at roughly the same time. I reckon it should be a random interval (from really early morning to as it is going dark) and also a new building/structure a big radio tower in the middle of the map, this would be a key location, it could be used for getting your bearings on the map and I thought of a nifty idea that fits in with the random time air supplies. If you are at the radio tower, like really close there could be a radio signal that gives you a rough idea of when the plane will be flying over and also add an invisible border around the radio tower that stops any thing being placed so people cant block it off.

As I've understood, Helk is working on an entirely new map. So it'd wouldn't be any point of implementing these things. Keep in mind that everything in the game, as of now, may or may not be placeholders, and may or may not be removed at any time.
the thing about radio signals is you dont have to be really close to receive them... [QUOTE=Zaccie;42774534]as of now the supply drop plane flies over at roughly the same time.

[QUOTE=spitznagel;42775750]the thing about radio signals is you dont have to be really close to receive them...[/QUOTE] If you have a radio and the equipment is working properly, sure. The idea could make sense if the idea is that the radio tower is broadcasting whatever signal it receives over half functioning loudspeakers so you had to be close enough to hear it. That being said, I don't really care for the idea. I think i'd prefer a whole new map (maybe even random map generation so every server is different) and for the care packages to disappear entirely at some point. I don't mind too much if they stay but it just seems out of place unless they really are planning to go for a hunger games style backstory for the game.
