leviski 2152 Posted February 10, 2013 Now, this is a discussion and not a suggestion. I looked around and didn't see anything on the forums.Can someone explain to me why: Takistan life servers have things like pistol whipping, tasers and handcuffs (with no mod downloads)however you cant do anything like that in dayz, I mean at the least it would be nice to put pistol whipping into dayz. that would make pistols a lot more useful and add in non lethal takedowns 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
krihelion 175 Posted February 10, 2013 its all scripts bro Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dancing.Russian.Man 1631 Posted February 10, 2013 Pretty much what Krihelion said.Scripts and small mission files. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
boxman80 964 Posted February 10, 2013 Fact remains, these SHOULD be a part of Day Z too, 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
leviski 2152 Posted February 10, 2013 Yea, If they can script in a barrel roll why cant we have pistol whips??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Michaelvoodoo25 3120 Posted February 10, 2013 (edited) Gotta agree, DayZ needs them, would expand on playing the mod, with more to do. I wonder if the mod devs have considered this? Edited February 10, 2013 by Michaelvoodoo25 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I wonder if the mod devs have considered this?Exactly, If someone can do it with those life servers wouldn't it be easy to implement a locked script (pistol whipping)? or something like that.

plrsniper 87 Posted February 10, 2013 Gotta agree, DayZ needs them, would expand on playing the mod, with more to do. I wonder if the mod devs have considered this?They have most likely thought about it but haven't gotten around to investigating any further as there are many more things in their pipeline.

krihelion 175 Posted February 10, 2013 plus, any life server is pretty much unplayable above 30 players for me and others who do not have government super computers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kingflip 42 Posted February 10, 2013 it should be, but im sure it you pistol whipped a zombie, you'd just piss it off lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
leviski 2152 Posted February 11, 2013 I just wish we had some type of not leathal take-downs that doesn't involve shooting someone precisely in the leg/torso. Hopefully they go hey look at this thread and script it in next patch lol xD Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Inception. 9443 Posted February 11, 2013 The answer to your question is quite simple.It's because they weren't implemented. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
taco241 393 Posted February 11, 2013 Yeah. I'd like a "drag" style option, but changed to "grab" so you can grab a player from behind and hold a pistol to their head.This move could also disarm the player, placing their guns on the ground. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
leviski 2152 Posted February 11, 2013 I would just like to see something simple like in Takistan life where you hit F and you smack them with a pistol and they go down for 15-30 seconds. and to make it more fair you could reduce the timer each time its done to you in succession so people cant troll you.It shouldn't be too hard to implement if those servers did it why cant Dayz?possibly we will see it in the future.

sobieski12 835 Posted February 11, 2013 it should be, but im sure it you pistol whipped a zombie, you'd just piss it off lolImagine if you hand-cuffed a player, and the guys i being annoying on direct chat.*Pistol whip dat face.It would make for some funny/epic role playing.

ToddTaylor 8 Posted February 12, 2013 plus, any life server is pretty much unplayable above 30 players for me and others who do not have government super computersWell the really sad news is that even if you have a super computer (which I do) the life servers seem to be the new haven for hackers. I really liek the Life mods, Wasteland, Battleguns, etc, but they are simply being hacked to bits. I'v eyet to play more than an hour without running into a god-mode, a teleporter, a gear spawner, or most common.....all of the aforementioned. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Raged 187 Posted February 13, 2013 Hmmm. Sounds like it'd be a promising concept and quite a moral boost amoung the fanbase to implement these scripts in the next patch.(I'm not a dev so I don't know how much rescources it'd take up.)But hell I'll jump on this bandwagon if it can move us away from the "Dayz Is Too Hard Now :( " threads.-Rage Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
