    Uses for Rope

    Technical plausibility aside: A player could drop the rope down to create an easier way up for other players, if they're jerks they could let the rope go while the player climbing the rope is almost up. As a lasso for easier player or zombie capture As a clothes line for drying out clothes. (combined with a new ground spike item) As a clothes line to knock down sprinting players or zombies. Create an improvised flail (weapon) Play the jump rope mini game Tie lassoed zombies to ground spikes and use them to guard an area Human puppet show! To stop uncool people getting into your cool clubhouse with a rope barrier
  2. Currently a broken leg is quite easy to get and it uses an item that you is very hard to find and for someone not using the wiki you'd probably just think wooden sticks were junk. I'm not saying a broken leg shouldn't be a serious consideration but as it is at the moment it's just annoying and it doesn't really open up any game play avenues except for searching aimlessly in the hope that you find some sticks. I have two suggestions to re balance this scenario to make it a bit more interesting. My first suggestion is weapon splints, with long weapons like rifles, shotguns and axes (because a pistol or a knife isn't going to do anything for stabilizing a broken leg) it's not unreasonable that you would be able to create a splint out of this, whats more weapons are very valuable so re purposing it as a splint would be a fairly significant trade off. Though these should be more cumbersome splints as the materials are larger and would affect the patients gait more therefore slowing them down and possibly even blocking access to trouser pockets (if Bohemia want to be really mean). My second suggestion is that a large rucksack has everything you'd need to create a splint if you tear it apart. There is the internal frame (which is usually thin metal) it'll have all sorts of straps and buckles to tie the metal on and there is the fabric that can be used as dressing. From a gameplay perspective it is a very significant trade off as you'd have to pretty much drop all your equipment in order to fix your leg. If we're being entirely realistic you'd likely need a knife or something but it may be possible to chew a rucksack apart with your teeth, though I'm not testing this theory on my rucksack.
