Wing Suits in DayZ?

[BilboBaggins (DayZ) 1]

Ok i want your guys opinion on this.

I know some of you guys would wonder why we need these when we have parachutes?Also that it would make it really easy well im here to change your minds.

Here are some reasons

• Make them extremely hard to find(thus making it too easy)
  
• They would make the game a little bit more fun than they have made DayZ
  
• easier to travel the distance
  
• Thus making it too easy you would have to use a heli.
  
• Playing the game more is an effect because it would cause players to want to find one so that they could feel as if they are there own human jet
  

-Some ways would be to make it to where you could actually control how high you would go and easy turning(unlike parachute)

-Invovle weather. Make it to where if you try to fly in the rain with it it would be very hard to control and could mess up your wing suit thus you have to REPAIR it with a specific cloth, etc. (Your choice)

-You can shoot down flying players(allowing them to take there wing suit)(if damaged in shooting they must repair it)

That is all.

oh dear.

[BilboBaggins (DayZ) 1]

oh dear.

what do you mean "oh dear"

[SeaMan (DayZ) 31]

Definatly.Add jet packs too.and Segways.

[Creep- 569]

nevermind.

[Draay (DayZ) 47]

Some suggestions are just not needed. Hey can you add coffee machines? See what I mean?

[-Gews- 7443]

While we're at it, we should add propeller beanie spawns so we can soar above the ground.

[SeaMan (DayZ) 31]

Also add can we have the james bond car that goes underwater?

[jblackrupert 308]

I think the game you are looking for is Far Cry 3

[BilboBaggins (DayZ) 1]

No honestly cut it out with all the ridic. comments.

And I like cheese im not talking about far cry im just saying it would be really cool to have plus its not crazy and its realistic.

We could only use it if we were high off the ground and they would only spawn in high mountain areas

I can't get passed this. I don't think you know what thus means.

[SeaMan (DayZ) 31]

Past, But yeah.Something tells me English is not his first language.Unless he really like cheese.

Fixed

Wow, disapproval to the max. What's wrong with you guys?? Read before posting, or give some real reasons why you don't approve.

Atleast his idea is more realistic.

I'd support this, but only in standalone. Arma 2 doesn't support jumping, so if I wanted to jump off a mountain and get a bit of distance initially, I wouldn't be able to. But this, in conjunction with this suggestion could be the makings of Bandit's Creed... :D

I don't understand some people's logic. "No, no, graveyard the Wing Suit suggestion, but beans to the guy who suggested strictly having PvE-Only servers in a game where the core elements are tied into PvP!" If you want to know some suggestions that "are just not needed", then there it is. Go play Harvest Moon if you don't like bandits.

Ok i want your guys opinion on this.

I know some of you guys would wonder why we need these when we have parachutes?Also that it would make it really easy well im here to change your minds.

Here are some reasons

• Make them extremely hard to find(thus keeping the game from being to easy)
  
• They would make the game a little bit more fun than they have made DayZ
  
• easier to travel the distance
  
• To keep from making the game to easy you can not just fly anywhere only by jumping from helis. or tall mountains.
  
• Playing the game more is an effect because it would cause players to want to find one so that they could feel as if they are there own human jet
  

-Some ways would be to make it to where you could actually control how high you would go and easy turning(unlike parachute)

Thanks man. I was hoping this might get into dayz standalone.

Also what is your take on my unique idea do you think its crazy?

What advantages would it have and what disadvantages would it have.

Would it be good for the game OR Bad for the game?

[BilboBaggins (DayZ) 1]

I was talking about a guy who posted i wasnt paying attention and i thought that was the guys name on here...

I do think it's a little bit crazy... I'm not entirely sure you'd actually see wing-suiting bandit assassins in a real zombie apocalypse (although there always is that one oddball psycho out there, amirite?), but it could have some very rewarding gameplay.

Imagine you're the guy who just spawned and found a wingsuit and a hatchet in cherno, maybe you'd climb up a building, wingsuit onto the next one, and get revenge on the ghillied sniper who killed you the last life (and then break your legs on the ladder as you climb down :lol:). Seriously exciting stuff, although realistically you shouldn't be able to find a wingsuit immediately.

Its a ridiculous idea.You're supposed to be a normal guy in a zombie apocalypse.There would be no way you wouyld jump off a mountain in a wing suit for fear of it not working.If you want a high octane game go play Far Cry 3 like someone suggested.

Compared to a normal guy in a zombie apocalypse who knows how to use every weapon, military gadget, explosive, vehicle as well as knowing how to repair everything, hunt and track and also how to fix yourself from any and every medical condition with all the medical supplies you find.

it isn't THAT ridiculous.

Hello there

The lack of the right kind of terrain in Cherno might be an issue.

There are scripts for HALO, which is close to that which you are describing, but you'd need the right kit ('chute, big old plane etc) so keeping to the ethos, it's a little unlikely.

It's a fun little idea but not really practical or in keeping with the DAYZ feel IMHO.

Keep the ideas coming though.
