[Standalone] Drugs ?

[Fenrod 60]

What if the devs implemented several kinds of drugs, such as beta blockers to improve your aim, or adrenaline syringes to help you run faster ?

There are planty of other possibilities, but the idea of using nothing else but medicine pills kinda sucks, in my opinion.

I didn't know they had a drug that made you steadier and another that makes you run faster.

Oh yeah, because they don't exist! This is a realistic apocalyptic game, bro, not CoD Zombies.

Epi pens =/= adrenaline syringes, they're already in the game but serve a different purpose, and as above I don't really think the Metal Gear Solid style sniping on valium is very realistic, lol.

Just because you're more ignorant that an oyster doesn't mean you have to look down on me. Beta blockers are used to slow down heart rate and are often used in archery competitions, and adrenaline has the opposite effect while increasing physical performances.

But these are just examples, they could implement a lot of other drugs, some which could rise your body temperature.

How about some weed. You can't run as far. You don't want to search for items just drive around in a car. You instantly go hungry, and need to eat 3 times the food to fill your hunger. You have constant cotton mouth the entire few hours you're high. You instantly have to go poop if it's good weed. What else am I missing here. When you sleep (do you have to sleep in this game?) you don't have to sleep for as long the next time due to being well rested. Everything looks slightly different turn the contrast up a little bit, make the colors a bit more vivid. Oh another thing friendly fire turns off when you're high as you don't want to shoot each other any more you just all want to chill out, and work together, or at least sit around and talk about stuff.

Lol :P

Morphine is a drug and an epi-pen is an adrenaline shot.

Edit: Forgot antibiotics and painkillers.

Hello there

Like ammo, medication should be rare.

I'd like to see realistic naming conventions for meds, so one has to experiment or find medical journals to see if they are popping the correct medication.

I just want one of those Jack Daniels bottles to spawn full for a change.

But a big bag of weed wouldn't go amiss either.

(Over sidechat) Chabowski: Has anyone in Cherno got any skins?

EDIT:

On the point made by OrLok : I'd imagine in SA there will be more than just "antibiotics" to find.

Depending on what you're trying to cure, the wrong choice of medication could prove fatal.

Also, I'd like to see characters build up resistances to medication, to stop people from just eating every pill they find in the hopes of curing themselves.

eg. If you've built up a resistance to certain drugs by taking them unnecessarily, when you DO need them, you'll need to find a LOT more of them.

I'd imagine any meds would be rare as hell, let alone thous specialist drugs your talking about, (Chenarus is a backwater post soviet, not the center of the Olympic Training Grounds for the Russian Federation, only reason we have a lot of US military gear instead of 99.99% Soviet surplus is because a war was fought here before the outbreak) I'd imagine that antibiotics would be in larger supply because during the outbreak Chenarus got supply drops of medicine to try and combat the 'mystery virus' (would also explain why there seams to be a lot of Medic tents set up in Balota Cherno and Berezino)

How about Ritalin for the script kiddies

[burritoman259 593]

The only drug variants I'd like to see would be ones that didn't make you sprint like a retard I,e left for dead 2, don't improve accuracy or any other physical trait your character has.

Cool didn't know that. Yea when you're working at a job, and you smoke some weed it's like you just came to work. You can work at full potential again, or even better then full potential. I use to work for a catering company, and after working for a good 5 hours when you'd be pretty tired we'd smoke then we could work at full potential again. It really does make you work better. Sometimes it can you make you work crappier being to high, overthinking things.
