bfisher 561 Posted April 7, 2013 Obviously the thing that separates DayZ from other zombie games like Left 4 Dead, Dead Island, Dead Rising and so on is that it's more about the suspense of being in a huge open sandbox world with dozens of other players who may or may not want to kill you. And being derived from a military sim, I'm sure the folks at Bohemian weren't looking to show soldiers and civilians being blown, shot and hacked apart in glorious over the top bloody fashion.That said, does Rocket plan to have zombies and players being blown, shot and hacked apart in glorious over the top bloody fashion?I mean it doesn't need to be Dead Island or L4D, but surely he can add a bit of ragdoll physics and do a bit better than the cheesy red Kill Bill streams that shoot out of wounded players.

toxicsludge 406 Posted April 8, 2013 I dont think it needs 'more gore'. Sure, ragdoll physics and perhaps blood stains or similar, but IMO, bits and pieces flying off bodies adds nothing to the game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
elf cakes 559 Posted April 8, 2013 obviously anything would be an improvement on the small red mark and the blood animation that currently looks like a water fountain, so i guess they will add more 'gore' to an extent, like better bullet hit animations, maybe some blood splatter, hopefully people's clothes will stain red if they are shot. that would be so cool. they could wash their clothes to get it off! would be awesome. so yes, i hope there will be more gore, and believe that there will be. nothing too extreme like arms and legs flying about though. although losing a limb and surviving could be another interesting game mechanic :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

aussiestig 681 Posted April 8, 2013 After recently getting into The Walking Dead, I'd like to see a bit more gore. It doesn't have to be extreme, but I'd like to see some zombies walking around with missing arms and legs, and a bit more blood come out when you hit them with melee weapons. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oli83 11 Posted April 8, 2013 More gore..... Yes please!!! I think it needs it, turning up to a city and seeing blood and guts splattered around will get you thinking wtf happened here!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
intensity 157 Posted April 8, 2013 Gore that would be similar to Left 4 Dead would be amazing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bfisher 561 Posted April 8, 2013 More gore..... Yes please!!! I think it needs it, turning up to a city and seeing blood and guts splattered around will get you thinking wtf happened here!!!! That's what I'm thinking! It's creepy enough when you find a half dozen dead players (like why did no one take all this gear?). But it would be even better if you found it as a blood spattered pile of meat and backpacks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
timboski 618 Posted April 8, 2013 Would love to see some more gore. I particularly like the idea of blood trails/bloody footprints. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
p4triot 207 Posted April 8, 2013 I dont think it needs 'more gore'. Sure, ragdoll physics and perhaps blood stains or similar, but IMO, bits and pieces flying off bodies adds nothing to the game.In a zombie game, it does. 'Gore' is the family surname for 'Zombie' a zombie serie/movie/comic/game makes no sense without gore. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nox81 28 Posted April 8, 2013 (edited) What would be really good is game specific injuries showing properly, such as bullet wounds where they were actually hit or wounds specific to being killed by a zombie. When i stumble across an abandoned car and two dead guys i like to play Mr inspector and try to work out what happened, were they ambushed, did zombies get them? Is the killer still near by? It would be cool if the bodies would give me a clue as to where they were shot and what with etc.That would be cool in my eyes, and when you inspect the body it would be cool if it said something like His name was 'whatever' he's been dead for 1 hour' etc....cos if it said 3 minutes you'd start panicking!

RIGHTLY 87 Posted April 8, 2013 How about cutting the limbs off of zombies, but they survive for a certain amount of time before they bleed out? Imagine having a zombie come after you with blood gushing out where its arm used to be.Also, crawlers should have broken, one, or no legs, so they have to pull themselves along the ground. How creepy would that look? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
