plexico 386 Posted June 24, 2013 I've been reading threads about bandit KOSing and people seem to say that if you try to rob a player without killing them it never ends well and you can rarely successfully rob a player. What I think is a really good idea is the ability to knock out players (without shooting them) and while they are knocked out you have full access to all their gear as if they were dead. This will bring forth new types of game play, and hopefully promote more complex banditry instead of just shooting everyone you see. How this could work is if a player is standing completely still, you can stand behind him and hit him with the butt of your gun or melee weapon. You would be able to sneak up on a player and knock him out, or stick up people and knock them out. It shouldn't be easy to just run up to people and knock them out and it should take a few seconds to complete to avoid people just running around knocking out people for shits and giggles. I think this would be an extremely cool thing for Standalone and/or the mod. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
harley001 315 Posted June 24, 2013 (edited) Knocking someone out is easy. HERE ARE SOME SIMPLE FUN STEPS! :D :D :D1. Get a weapon like a dmr/m14/The hunting rifle. These work the best but others can do the job.2. Pray he doesn't have low blood. 3. Do whatever you planned on doing with him while simultaneously praying he doesn't wake up. 4. Give him proper medical attention because your a nice guy! 5. Leave and simultaneously pray he doesn't wake up and shoot you while your leaving. OPTIONAL! If he is your nemesis then shoot him after giving him medical attention because your a neutral guy! :rolleyes: Edited June 24, 2013 by harley001 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Then replace step 1 with "Get a axe". That is not shooting him. That is hitting him with a large blunt and sharp object!

kylar 1 Posted June 24, 2013 Knocking a player out like this I think is a vary important feature, as states it would give players a viable alternative to killing another player when wanting to obtain their gear. This feature would also need to be coupled with the ability to tie up knocked out players and blind fold them to allow for proper abduction and safe transport. (Shoving would also be important) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SoulHunter (DayZ) 233 Posted June 24, 2013 Technically axes in game also shoot. =) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That is hitting him with a large blunt and sharp object!Okay, how about without critically damaging the person? Also this way you still don't have access to their gear and they will probably be up in a matter of seconds.Knocking a player out like this I think is a vary important feature, as states it would give players a viable alternative to killing another player when wanting to obtain their gear.

(Shoving would also be important)Idea is cool but I think it would be sort of annoying to just be completely stuck tied up for whatever amount of time the kidnappers desire.

Sutinen 635 Posted June 24, 2013 Blunt weapons is what we need. Now that would allow us to knock each other out for some blood. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
