Draco122 412 Posted April 30, 2013 An idea for the use of the straight razor.Like it's creation and purpose its used for shaving, so let us use it for that purpose. For shaving.An idea sprung to mind, when a male character has survived for a lengthy period of time, that character will steadily begin to grow a beard, until it gets to the point where it just gets too large it gives other players a definative sign that this player has survived for a long period of time.This makes players with characters who have survived for a while, somewhat reconignizable by other players so allowing for the razor to be moved to the toolbelt and then given the option to shave near a lake or with the use of a water canteen will remove the otherwise lengthy beard.A razor could also be used to customise ones facial appearance somewhat and make their character that little bit more unique.

Beck (DayZ) 1768 Posted April 30, 2013 I feel like the toilet paper and the razors were showing us what we have to look forward to in stand alone... Shitting and shaving. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted April 30, 2013 I'm all cool for it. Just make sure it's not controlled by the player. I can see a lot of Hitlers marching around! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Very Ape 748 Posted April 30, 2013 Agreed. I don't really see any real benefit from the idea.Dynamic growth, even in the form of beards, makes you more attached to your character('s beard), and not just his gear. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

catweazle (DayZ) 28 Posted April 30, 2013 Add grindstones that you could shave yourself with the knife...rambo-like...and maybe soap. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Very Ape 748 Posted April 30, 2013 DayZ Hitler clans?Neo-nazi factions running around would be interesting, albeit somewhat disturbing given that they wouldn't be NPC-controlled. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
