Welch (DayZ) 756 Posted February 8, 2013 What if we had a main weapon melee move where we could shove a zed away from us, or to the ground, or over a railing? It could help with the 'stuck in the corner and surrounded by infected' problem, too. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
boxman80 964 Posted February 8, 2013 Its a limitation of the current engine I believe but it would be nice if this could be worked on in stand alone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
enforcer1975 1111 Posted February 8, 2013 Good suggestion and i think it's possible but if you are already cornered you made a wrong move somewhere and with that horde of zeds in front of you what happens is most likely "dinnertime" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
terminal_boy 860 Posted February 8, 2013 I can see how using a cupboard door or old riot shield would be handy for shoving the odd zombie out of the way, but you shouldn't be able to shove 2 aggro'ing zombies. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guerrilla (DayZ) 0 Posted February 8, 2013 I think this is a good idea but it could be exploited or over used, maybe a stamina bar so you cant shove and shove endless streams of zeds. but yeah a good idea Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mr_chabowski@live.co.uk 2416 Posted February 9, 2013 IIRC Rocket wants some kind of "emergency unarmed combat" in SA, in my mind, a "rifle-shove" is in the same boat (not damaging, but pushes zeds back)As for limiting their use, that kind of action wouldn't stop zeds from hitting you, it would just stop them from being able to do it so often. So it's not going to be able to save your ass indefinitely.You'd have to be facing the guy your wanting to shove, so you couldn't shove more than one zed at a time anyway.
