Be gentle.

 

Edit: Oh and this. I know it was part of the weapon list but it got more attention on its own.

All great ideas,

And from what I've heard, they are adding in many more guns to the SA.

 Thanks! I knew they would but I thought it couldn't hurt to show what I would like to see.

I like the idea of a .22LR bolt action

Then a .223 bolt action aswell

I want sawwed off double barrels :)

But most of all, I want to wield anything as a melee weapon only some have better damage values than others.

Small rounded or boxy type things, should be wielded in one hand like rock.

Small blades & etc. like hunting knife and hatchets should be one handed.

Large elongated items should be used as two handed melee weapons, slow but will cause lots of damage.

The amount of damage caused should change with size of striking area times by lever size counting your arms (like IRL).

Ohmagewd melee! It should be quick switching to your melee weapon so we just put our guns away when zombies are close to save ammo like they do on walking dead.

I want a piece of rebar and be able to stab zeds in the eye like they do on walking dead.

It would be nice to have a jab instead of just slash/ swing.

Maybe... If you think about it, when standing still your sort of defending a position when using something like a spear youse that range. Maybe it should be the same with a tool with a jab manouver. When moving side to side you would get powerful swings, backward a sort of overshoulder defensive hack and when moving forward almost a side off weapon knock them off balance/ tackle thing much like a buttstock smack with your gun.

I like the idea of shield and spear...i think there should be more simple melee weapons which you can make by own...they could be relatively easy to make but not so reliable)

This is a really minor suggestion so I didn't want to make a new topic for it, I hope you don't mind me adding a suggestion here.

 

I think there should be some sort of medicinal plants/herbs. Maybe willow bark could substitute painkillers, and opium poppies (which should be pretty common in the area) could be a substitute for morphine (because morphine comes from opium poppies and is in them naturally)...of course for the standalone, I really hope broken legs/morphine don't work the same way.

I like the option to be there for living off the land like that.

But I feel as a substitute it wouldn't be nearly as effective, morphine is probably very highly concentrated.

I would like spear and shields, probably riot type shields of clear plastic, but also large metal ones with peepin holes.

Spear = bear Grylls style knife on a stick ;)

I think a simple spear should definitely be craftable for hunting purposes and a riot shield should be lootable.

I like the idea but it could be potentially be OP. This should definitely be an option but be relatively rare (not as rare as actual meds) just to keep people from spamming them. Which I doubt spamming will be a problem in SA. They have stated that you will only be able to do things like eat and drink to a certain limit. Like eat/drink until you're full.
