Self Blood Bags

[AllowMeToRant 0]

Its not always easy to find someone to help you out w/ some blood bags. Maybe a way to give yourself one? Nail in a tree or find a room w/ medical equipment?

this would pretty much remove the purpose of the hero skin.

This was a challenge that rocket intended, to make you put your life in the hands of another survivor to help you. i like the tension ;)

Well, you can still get the skin. But, sometimes you can run for days without bumping into someone... just a though.

Indeed but i still feel this removes an interesting dynamic in the game, you can still regen health via cooked meat.

I don't understand how taking your own blood out and putting it back in makes much sense

I`m pretty sure that is the entire point.

[Chris529 380]

I think the whole find someone to help you idea is not taking into account the PVP shitstorm dayz has become, you'll be lucky if a survivor doesn't shoot you on sight let alone help you without stabbing you in the back.

hmmm i like the idea of need a medical room and equipment to do a blood trans.

not so much blood bagging your self

maybe that being the only way to blood bag your self? having to be in the hospital.

[DemonGroover 8836]

Being able to bloodbag yourself is a tad silly imo, but there are a couple of servers out there.

[Mos1ey 6301]

Blood bags are one of the only things that encourage co-operation, not a good idea IMO.

Exactly, i see where the chap is coming from suggesting to remove it but like se7en explains its an interesting dynamic is very true and it should stay that way..

you can self blood bag in origins i think

If you cant find someone that you can trust to give you a transfusion then you have to find another way to get blood, go hunting, a few cows later and you'll be good as new.

I was just about to open a new suggestion for this but i found this so excuse me for digging it out.

I think the suggestion is valid for one major reason: The huge disadvantage this gives solo players to teams.

I know, in a perfect dayz world we would have strangers playing who are forced to group up to help each other. In reality we have groups on ts that will shoot everyone not in their team on sight and some solo players who have been shot a few times to often to help.

Dont get me wrong, i like the challenges of dayz and i would be totally fine if everyone had to take them. But since groups will need 10 minutes to stack up on bloodbags and have infinite life as long as they are quick enough on the mouse wheel, the lone wolf has to search for an axe, knife and matches, get out of the city, find animals with his screen black and white and eat a few cows and pigs to be restored.

It might be intended to increase cooperation but this does not work. So in my opinion we would need self bloodbags or at least more health from an animal to balance things out. And balance should be one of the things we should work towards at this state of the mod.

I wish they would add this.

As a partial lone wolf I can only get blood through cooked meat.

[GangstaDuck 4]

Rather spend time looting and fighting and adventuring then hunting and cooking.

[GangstaDuck 4]

That's just my opinion.

you know, there is an edit button.

What I said still stands, too much shoot on sight to rely on blood bagging. Oh well, at least there's the alternative of eating. It just takes a bit of time and if you are low on blood passing out a lot it's annoying.

He is just a little spoiled brat who wanna be praised cus of his post count which has been accomplished with an absolute spamming action. He is now happy to have 100 posts in less than an hour lol =))

he probably got a nice stack of warning points as a reward. It sucks he couldn't spam some quality stuff, instead he just posted sentence fragments and came out looking like some mental defective.

He also only got around to making a couple shittopics to go with his steam of shitposts, they weren't anything special either :(
