Find weapon attachments in the wilds of Chernarus(or Taviana, or Namalsk, etc.) and remove or drastically reduce the spawn rate of attachment weapons(such as m4a1 CCO SD). For example, to have an M4A1 CCO SD, you would need to find the M4, the CCO sight, and the 7.62mm silencer all separately. "But what if my gun doesn't have a rail?" I hear you asking. My answer is duct tape. No, seriously. I mean taping an attachment you don't have a rail for to the gun. But turning too swiftly alot would detach the attachment, placing it in your pack(we've all heard the horror stories of disappearing backpacks, haven't we?). This would still be terribly inconvenient. But then you can find an attachment rail for your gun, which can't cause your attachment to fall off. Why not a few new attachments? Laser sight- Beam can be seen by people. Increases hip fire accuracy. Sniper Scope: Self explanatory. Due to you guys' love for the Lee, why not tape a scope to it? If you picked option 2 or 3 on the poll, why?

Would you be able to survive a point-blank headshot from a Lee-Enfield? In DayZ you can. In fact, it just happened. In DayZ, instant death from headshots would not break immersion. Being implemented, it would reward headshots. Most people go for bodyshots, because that tiny bit of extra damage isn't worth the risk. Instant death headshots would make pistols less bad, make people reconsider if they want to use extra ammo, and more.

What was the kill in DayZ that you felt happiest with after the deed was done? Mine was when I was driving north from Elektro to get to an airfield. I was driving on the same side as some other guy who was going the opposite direction, and we both tried to swerve off the road the same way. We crashed, destroying my Offroad. While trying to greet him, he shot out my leg with his Enfield. Apparently he thought I was unconscious, so when he came up to finish me, I shot him a few times with my MP5. I think he bled out about a second after I died. I had so much stuff, but I didn't care because he did too.

My first kill was some guy idling on top of the Rog castle. I killed him with a hatchet, and took his Enfield.

Texas? Guns, guns everywhere

Thank you for including my infected animal idea. http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/124808-infected-animals/#entry1195275

Guaranteed head explosion? http://cdn.unrealitymag.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/exploding_head_3.jpg

A pretty prominent trope in zombie media is zombies being attracted by noise, like the concert finale from Left 4 Dead 2 or that girl with the climbing pick from Telltale's Walking Dead game using church bells to draw zombies away from her destination. Now, there are churches with bell towers in almost (if not all) every town in Chernarus. We could use this to attract a large horde of zombies. We have tin cans lying everywhere, which could be more useful for distracting two or three of them. If you think about it, the possibilities are endless. Throwing a can at someone to get a few zombies attacking them, ringing a church bell while bandits are around, and probably a lot of other things that I don't feel like thinking of.

How would this work? If it was coal powered, good luck finding several tons of coal to make it operate. Would your character automatically know how to drive a train? Why would it not derail after several years of railway maintenance by only Derpski the zombie? There are just too many holes for this to work.

Maybe depending on the part of the helicopter you're in, like the nosedive killing the pilot and co-pilot, but leaving the guys in back intact (but still dead nontheless)

Sometimes while wandering Chernarus, you will find wild animals, such as pigs. It could add a little bit more variety to DayZ if these animals could also show up as zombies, being smaller, faster, and harder to hit, but being more fragile that your average zombie. By the way, is it frowned upon to post multiple suggestions in different threads within a short period of time in this forum? I'm new here.

Gews, you posted while I was typing, and I didn't know that that was a feature (having only seen one helicopter, ever in my time with the game), so I'm going to request that everyone stop posting on this thread. (also, that was your 666th post)

I don't think there's a very big chance of you disentegrating if almost none of the helicopter does.

I've noticed while messing around in the Arma2 armory that when a helicopter crashes, the people inside mysteriously disappear. Anyway, I was thinking that a crashed helicopter would have at least a chance to have the bodies of the people in it in or near it, allowing collection of valuable loot that would normally be lost.
