jaytmuk (DayZ) 621 Posted August 25, 2013 Was just playing on GITS Dayz server (very much fun server, no zombies, but full on pvp deathmatching lol) and i saw a dead body and thought wouldnt it be a major headfuck if in the standalone you had the option to play dead, it would mean every body players found they would have to shoot it before looting, and that would give away their position to other players and zombies (flies being the only giveaway i guess lol) What do ya think? :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
plexico 386 Posted August 25, 2013 Would be epic to be forced to hide in a pile of dead bodies and possibly get sick to avoid a bandit clan trying to kill you. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
King of kong 1117 Posted August 25, 2013 (edited) I'd only accept this idea if there were tell-tale signs that they were faking (Rising chest, ocasionally blinking eyes)EDIT: Learn some grammar. I'm 13, I've got better grammar than you... Oh feck me. Nvm Edited August 25, 2013 by King of kong Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

harley001 315 Posted August 25, 2013 I think zombies smell you. So doubt it would work on them. That and most people already double tap their kills. This would just make people be EXTRA sure that their target is dead. Still. Might be good if players are walking by and there is no cover to hide in. Make yourself look like a dead player. Maybe have the ability to let them loot you when you're faking death to help the ruse. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The zombies don't smell you, they HEAR and SEE.Smell would ruin stealth because there's no real way to avoid it unless they added some sort of mask. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jordan* 277 Posted August 25, 2013 a mask for who..? the zombies?!? ffs.... no. He is implying a mask of your scent, as to hide your scent from the zombies if they had the sense of smell. Like rubbing yourself in deer urine when you are hunting. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But zombies still eat dead people. So I don't think playing dead would work on a zombie. "oh sh*t. ZOMBIES!" *plays dead* Zombies: "oh hey food!" *screams of pain* Zombies: OH HEY FRESH FOOD! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jvalor 59 Posted August 26, 2013 I can see it. "FUCK, A ZOMBIE. PISS ON ME, QUICK"Good thing there isn't a 'piss' animation. Can you imagine how fucked up it would be to watch a bandit kill some fresh spawn and piss on his corpse? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mullraugh 1151 Posted August 26, 2013 There won't be death messages when you kill someone, so it's entirely possible to fake your death. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
