Raw Meat

[Glimmermang 25]

Raw meat should have significant value.

If you are being chased by a horde of zombies you should be able to throw the raw meat like a smoke and they will run to it. If you throw it into a city where zombies are lurking, they slowly walk towards it's direction

Outcome:

1. If you loot a body and find Raw Meat instead of cooked meat, it's just as good.

2. Animals in the wild become more valuable to kill because having raw meat on you can help avoid other players seeing you pull aggro.

3. You might hear more gunshots in the wild as players will probably kill more animals due to this value.

Oh and 4. Zombies like brains and flesh. They would totally want some of that danky raw meat yo

Not a bad idea. But animals are so abundant, I doubt it'd do anything to the amount of players in the wilderness hunting.

Think outside the box. Make hunting harder, animals less abundant.

Wouldn't rabbit have the lowest hp value saying its the smallest animal and irl rabbits have no nutritional value?

[Diz (DayZ) 35]

Rabbit meat is quite nutritionally valid, but it's so low in fat that you actually need another source of fat if you are to survive exclusively on rabbit meat. You can look it up.

This has little to do with the video game though. The reasoning behind the rabbit bias I believe is the fact that rabbits are arguably the hardest to kill of all the game animals.

The benefits of rabbit meat:

• low in cholersterol
  
• low in calories
  
• low in saturated fats
  
• high in protein
  
• low in sodium
  
• 100% of the RDA for B12 :thumbsup:
  

Rabbits have the highest protein % of any meat you'd get from DayZ animals.

Although, to balance the game more authentically, I'd have just upped the % chance for any wild animal to be a rabbit and jack up the number of rabbit spawns in general.

There should be hundreds of the little buggers. They breed like rabbits!

So you want to chuck meat at zeds for a distraction?

In that sense, wouldn't all the animals be dead? I mean I know zeds are daft and instinctual so they would be drawn to the animals as a food source in the first place?

they say pig flesh is akin to human flesh so if zeds ate flesh they would eat animal flesh also?
