Cazz

Am I the only one that gets a little annoyed that doors have no sound what so ever? Every single door I open is silent, likes it has properly maintained hinges. Same with closing doors, you hear nothing. It wouldn't be a deafening slam or anything, just loud enough to know. Thoughts?

I love this idea.

I always wondered why this wasn't in the mod.

Not everyone in a zombie apocalypse will know how to repair an engine, or clean a firearm. So how about giving the books in the game more of a purpose, kinda like Skyrim. Sure you have your regular stories and books, then every once in a while you find a book that would level up a skill. However there's no leveling in DayZ, so instead what about something like a auto repair book? Reading it would give your character the know how to correctly change the engine in a broken vehicle or fix a fuel tank. Or finding weapon schematics to know how to correctly disassemble and clean your weapon. Now you wouldn't have to actually read the book, just opening it and closing it would suffice. But what if your character didn't have the proper knowledge but still had the parts? Well you could still try and preform the repair, but you would have a possibility of actually hurting the car more, or instead of being repaired 100% it's at 75%. Maybe if you feel this is getting too immersed, then what about it being implemented on hardcore only servers? These are my thoughts, what are yours? Sorry if there's already a post on this, I didn't feel like searching for one. TL:DR - Screw you, read the damn thing.

Coming from someone who has cleaned animals without the optimal equipment I like this idea. Perhaps the condition of the knife could effect how long it takes to clean the animal. If you try to clean a deer with a dull blade, you're gonna have a bad time.

You don't need the book to preform the repair, however you would have a chance for it not to be repaired 100% if you didn't have the knowledge.

I would love to see a musket added in. It would be interesting to use.

How about a backpack with a built in rifle scabbard? http://www.eberlestock.com/X3%20Lodrag%20Pack.htm http://www.eberlestock.com/G4%20Operator.htm
