Old news.. been posted about and they are pretty big post.. see my sig... It's prob where beraking point dev got the idea from and rocket has talked about them in little Q&A, videos blogs or little bits here and there.. i forget.

You could put book bags on them and shit, would be cool but it seems complicated.. either way I like it ;) Little more inventory space or w.e, but you risk getting sick since you're always around them. Pretty neat risk/gain

like I said, I'm not asking for battalions of tanks, planes, Heavy Machine guns and Mortar crews. This post right here proves that ya'll have no idea what i'm asking for. I do not want Hawitzers or Abrams, or anything like that. I understand that it would be OP and kill the game. But you can't get that in your head.. You act like I want 10,000 "heavy Artillery" cannons in each damn town. Apache heli flying over and Abrams shooting it out. Deh But there are military bases in game. There are military zombies... there are military aspects of the game you can't hide from that. To say that there would be no armored vehicles, HMG, or mortars on map is a big bag of silly because authentically you could find them at the FOBs placed in map and at the barracks already in game. etc. etc. etc. If you want only survival.. I think they should just remove all guns, maybe try minecraft? It's like you see someone say 'tank' and you see red with BF CoD titles popping up. no one is asking for that.

Thanks ;) There's always a dud in a good batch =p anyway I posted it and I'll keep saying why I posted it, but honestly idc... I'm fine with mortars and etc. not being in the game. I just wanted to see what the community thought. It's funny that someone brought it back from being dead who disagreed and now it's a unlike post hogging the top

well then I've completely misunderstood the point of the suggestion thread.

Stop being dramatic, you know that'snot what I want.

And I'm saying just because the game sole purpose isn't about military tactics.. does that make it irrelevant? The answer is no, There will be clans, there will be firefights, there should be ways to get an advantage far pass the ol Ak vs M16 debate. Just cause the game is about survival, doesn't make other real life aspects irrelevant.

I don't think ya'll get what I was saying but this post is old and idc anymore. But ya'll act like I want M119 with Arty computers, M1 Abrams and F35 jets in the game, and M134s... witch is silly. But people are going to try to find a tactical advantage over other people in anygame that has PvP. in a game where authenticity is key... I don't see the harm in adding low grade vehicles and weapons that could change the course of a battle. Just because zombies are in the game doesn't mean Dshka or M2 are not real.

It can be if you want ;) That's the beauty of it!

even if it is in The Walking Dead, who cares they don't have copy rights on the idea. Please shove the walking dead and their predictable and horrible acting up your ass. No offence of course. But having someone through a crap TV show in my face ever 3 post is a bit annoying. The idea isn't original, there are books that came before The Walking Dead that are using zombies as weapons. You can tranquilizer them them maybe, use non lethal rounds... use the Carthage vs Rome tactic where you bait them in and box them in. You could kill a bandit and use his body as bait and then box them in from there... many different ways

I haven't watched The Walking Dead since Season 1. but if these idea's are in it, doesn't make it a bad ideas ;)

Zombies are a huge part of the environment(PVE) in dayZ and so is PVP.. I feel combining PVP and PVE isn't a small subject, but perfect for a game like this that is about freedom and social experience.. etc. as far as realism... what? Using zombies as a weapon is very authentic.. 1st kill I got in the game was wounding a player and letting zombies eat him. and I agree about it needing to be visible or a clue or something... Maybe in the gear menu there will be a grenade with out the pin or something subtle. But I loot zombies all the time, great source of beans and pepsi's ;) anyway it can be hits or misses but that's the risk of any trap... just got to be creative with the bait ;)

I came up with this idea looking at a 'explosive zombie' suggestion... witch is silly, it's not L4D. but... What if we could capture a zombie and booby trap them from there. Say we put a explosive vest on them and trigger it by 'calling the phone'. Or a grenade that's had it's pin pulled but wont blow up until the zombie has been looted. since the spoon hasn't been released. Could do the same with a smoke grenade, so when it's been triggered, all the surrounding zombies come'a run-n. we could also have two walls around a base, and trap them between the two walls as way of defending the base. The idea's are countless, limited only by the person who captured a zombie creativity. since the zombies are not dead people, you could tranquilize them and from there sit them up in the way you want. You could use the collar with a pole attached to it to move them... and have cages to keep them in... like the lion cages at a zoo. Or have one of those horse transportation trucks to move them around. You could drive up to someone and release 10 zombies on them! aye? ;)

The real issue is with 3rd person, and it's cause people like having a handicap.
