gore and dismemberment and sewing back on limbs

[jona (DayZ) 61]

Ok so say if gore and dismemberment was in dayz. Would you think somebody blowing your arm off with a AS50 then have your mate collect your arm and sew it back on with a needle and sitches be a good feature in dayz? This feature would stop 1 hiting with anti material rifles and isntead lose limbs. Butcheirng animals and humans for meat would also come from this feature. Say your mates legs have been blowed off kill another survior and steal his legs to sew back onto your mate aswell?

Yeah cause that's how limbs work, just sow em' back on.

Doesnt need to be realsitc but could be a fun feature

Gotta run to Cherno and steal someone's kidney.

[chakijz 174]

Seems legit.

Might be fun, but has to be realistic, or at least believable.

That said, I'd rather not have the devs putting their time into something as trivial as this when there are more urgent features to develop.

Hey if morphine can fix my broken leg in seconds then why not simply sew limbs back on??

Exactly instead of been one shoted by a sniper in the leg, have it ripped off and get knocked out in shock and pain and you still have a chance of liveing if you have freinds wich can sew it back on its perfect!

Maybe you could take parts of players or zombies and make a frankenstain :)

I would be obsessed with knocking people out and playing pin the zombie arm on the new-spawn.

septic shock! this should answer this whole thread ;)

Why hasn't anyone thought of this yet? You can eat it as a tasty snack.

[[Gen]Adzic 241]

Yeah good idea! After the extremity is sewn back on...

• Be it a leg/foot/kneecap you can just go right back to running around and vaulting like an Olympic hurdler.
  
• Be it an arm/hand... you can still carry your backpack, use your gun/hatchet and competently operate general arm functions.
  
• Be it a head, yeah, you get the picture...

blow off all the limbs on somebody and tie them to a tree. "thats for being a bandit!" *leave them for the zeds*

[-Gews- 7443]

Don't support, too silly.

I don't mind limbs being blown off via grenade, though. I don't think even a .50 BMG would take off a leg.

Of course it's possible it could dismember someone if it hit them right, but I doubt it would be par for the course. It definitely wouldn't blow them in half. There are a couple well-known videos on Youtube of "Taliban" being shot by it and exploding, but those "Taliban" are actually little critters called rock chucks. It will definitely make a big hole in someone.

With Raufoss ammunition... yep, it could take off a limb or leave it hanging by threads.

Gore gore gore... :ph34r:

I don't mind ragdoll gore during firefights, but it's not going to happen. Far too much work, and too much of a performance hit.

[Death_Dealer 3155]

Loosing a limb would cause rapid blood loss, especially if it were added in DayZ.

You would probably bleed out before the missing limb could be sewn back on. You would need a lot more than one bandage to stop the bleeding.

Would like to see some gore, nothing too crazy but blood stains on players, blood trails and blood where a dead body was etc would be great.

There are already some bloodstains in ArmA that appear on players faces, arms, legs, body, if they take a certain amount of damage there. Dead players can have large holes in their face if they've been shot in the head.

Of course those are pretty basic and low-res. I assume it's just a matter of changing the textures to make something more visible and realistic.

If footprints could be implemented, I assume blood trails could be as well.

New poll

[Fun With Flares 72]

No.

You think the mod lags now, wait until the coast-sitters are blowing off newspawn's limbs instead of killing them and watching them try to crawl away.

VBS is the engine the Arma engine is based on. Around 0:22 when he lifts up the wounded soldier, you can see he's missing part of his leg so it probably could be implemented but it's not likely that you'll be alive when it happens.

Sowing limbs back on would be ridiculous and I would change my name to the Black Knight if it came to be, 'tis but a scratch!

This is the kind of stuff ArmA 3 needs. :lol:
