Livonia DLC worth it ?

[✬ L I G A V I]

question at the top :)

Yup! I play on the Dayone modded Livonia servers and it's some of the most fun you'll have. Good map design and it's fairly easy to come across people if you need a friend to run with. I mean, it's still DayZ and anything can happen, but for the most part most people are pretty cool to ungeared fresh spawns.

Just my opinion of course, but hope it helps!

I like it. Livonia has a different flavor. All the military camps are spread out and smaller, which I believe creates more movement even at the geared stages. The original map mostly centers around the airfield and a few other military bases. Both maps are enjoyable and feel completely different.

I bought it *glares at dev team* and I think its rather nifty.

very different feel to it.

It depends. I think it is great looking. Has a few unique features, I play a modded version HC, no cars limited loot, Winter and it is a solid map. I also think it would be great for pvp. (Haven't tried)

It should have been a free DLC. SO I waited for sale, It was worth sale price for sure. Some do not like because there is only really one big town, But does have lots of loot potential. For a survival Map it is great, lots of hunting, The further south you go, the more dangerous it gets. wait for a sale.

definitely... I like the map... it's actually a great PvE experience, more so than Chernarus in my humble opinion, especially if you head South. :j

I think I played like 3 or 4 hrs on it and turned my back on it. Cannot say it's bad or anything is wrong with it, it's just not Chernarus.

A thumbs up from me. You can get lost in Chenarus but usually just for a few minutes until you hit a town or village. In Livonia you can be standing in the middle of a giant field and have no idea which way to go and feel really lost for a much longer time.

Love it , I was an OG player, played from the very beginning through all the highs and very very low lows , back when you could LRS the Mosin lol After a few really brutal patches and crazy minimal development progress around the time of the great ENGINE SWAP I completely gave up on DayZ SA , and was happy with the amount of joy I got out of it

Livonia brought me back

I spend nearly all my time in Livonia. I love the bombed out towns with no doors to hide behind from a mob of angry infected. How everything is spread out so there is no centralised location for everyone to converge on. How I can still get lost at times in the deep south. If I had one criticism then it could do with a few more POI in the more sparse areas of the map as an incentive to travel there.

[baddoggs]

Yep, for me anyway.

[Niki_Merko]

Good

yep, the ruined villages are the unique feature of Livonia.
I love them, too...you can find great loot there and they're perfect for hide and seek games with other players or Zeds.

and yep, a castle or base in the far south would've been nice but as it is you can only go (bear) hunting there.

I join Livonia empty servers to get good gear fast and then server hop to full Cherna. Its alot faster then gear in Cherna and then server hop, Livonia loot routes are about 1,5-2x faster to get gear from.

It is a great map. Whereas some areas in Chernarus feel like they could use some more love as they come from the era of Arma2, each area in Livonia feels pretty high quality. The flow of the map is pretty different. While in Chernarus you can basically run into any direction and stumble upon villages and military locations, Livonia has more defined loot routes. Because of this you have much more interaction/pvp. Also there are less POI and more military locations in Livonia, so even more pvp and interaction. The south is almost only forest, few high end military sites and some civilian houses here and there. That area gives a feeling of survival and being lost that Chernarus cannot give.

So to conclude, it definitely plays way different than Chernarus. But the different flow of the map, more interactions and summerish feel of the landscape makes it worthwhile to hop into from time to time.
