Throwing stuff (bricks,bottles,etc)

[LancerG2 369]

Very small suggestion:

How about the ability to throw things? Say you where empty handed one day in DayZ and you found a brick. Then you had a very noisy gun (CZ 500). You climb to the top of a building and you see some poor schmuch being chased by a horde of zombies. And the douche you are. You throw the brick at the poor sucker and it hits him in the head. He gets knocked out and the undead feast on him.

But this basically gives you an idea. You can throw anything like bricks, Cinderblocks, Whiskey bottles (Making a purpose for rubbish) cans, rocks, computer monitor, Dildo etc. Depending on the item results in how much damage the item does.

Throwing items would be a great way to cause a diversions to other players and quiet ways of attacking other players. Not to mention the funny moments when your on a 12 story building and you drop a cinderblock on a somebodys head. When you throw items they may make a noise on colision. If hitting a player or undead it may result in a bone-cracking sound. Hitting the groudn will give a large solid thump/spash depending what ground it hits (eg. road, grass, water)

So in conclusion a minor idea is to throw items. They can serve a distraction purpose, while being a stealthy weapon choice too.

I'm sure this has been suggested but after a quick search I couldn't find anything, either way I like the idea especially if they make loud noises to attract zombies.

Tin cans already attract zombies.

I'm talking about heavy objects making loud, loud bangs and the tins cans making small sounds, meaning a cinder block would have a huge noise radius and cans very little.

um?.... im pretty sure that you can throw bottles and cans to injure zombies and players (Not much damage) And Im also pretty sure that they make a noise that distracts/attracts zombies. I do like the idea of bricks tho... You could really mess someones day up lol XD.

[Death_Dealer 3155]

Tin cans are capable of killing zombies and breaking other people's legs.

They're probably made out of titanium or something. :P Who knows what those crazy Soviet bastards did to 'em.

- Hehe, but it's not likely to do anything other than just annoy them.

I thought glass bottles already attracted the zombies?

Exactly... They wouldn't hurt.

So. Tavi is my favorite pony. If only this suggested in the game so I could throw a brick at someone because throwing bricks is hilarious.

Would love this.

Throwing stuff in DayZ like whiskey bottles is already there. You can have them in inventory and cycle to it with the "F"-key and use it to distract zombies.

Agree that this can be expanded a bit though... and lol, did you suggest throwing dildos?

Why yes I did. GTA IV reference.

[Noszombie 284]

Sounds like a good idea to me. Pretty simple yet can create a fair bit of fun while still being realistic.

Yes but I doubt they barely gain any attention anymore Spooderman. Also this topic is labeled "HOT" for a reason.
