Mud

[UmBe 125]

I would love to see something like that. I know the deformation of the ground is not possible, but beeing able to get stuck on muddy paths in the middle of the night would be super awesome.

side suggestion:

make car doors openable (exit animations would be cool, too), so they stay open when you leave the car.

Now when you are stuck in the woods you have to leave your car to serch something to get it unstuck and (for some reason) you leave the lights on and the door open there should be a binging sound.

It would create a great atmosphere.

Like the one part in The Walking Dead videogame

Maybe it could be a random event, like a crashsite, but the car should not be driveable (?)

watched nerds video earlier today it does what it is suppose to, SIMULATE something unlike 90% of the simulator games. and mud would be damn annoying but fit dayz.

This could also be used as an excuse for implementing tool to help you escape such situaitions, or give old items other uses like wooden planks for example.

Snow chains if they where ever to extend the map towards the north or to create a new now with colder temperatures.

I'd love this. In the rain, people would think twice about driving off-road if they have a sedan or something like that.

my best bet is that the current system in ArmA is because the AI would always try to drive as fast as they want and more than often enough slide off the road if you had the cars "unleashed". The leash is kind of cheap imo which is drag depending on the surface and less motor output the more you turn your wheel out of center and of course there would be no damage script when you drove too fast off road which would normally destroy a street cars suspension and to some extent even cars equipped for difficult terrain. Even driving on a dry field in a normal car would get you stuck pretty fast. I don't think they might be able to make this possible in game but hope is the last to die.

That would be pretty neat.

As for the "binging" sound, I don't think any cars will have that. People are driving old rustbuckes in this place, not band new vehicles. The only vehicle I can see this happening in, is the SUV. And if someone had that feature, what's to stop them from just cutting the wires?
