TreeMan (DayZ) 72 Posted August 28, 2013 So, as the title says, why not make hand signals? I know, people will respond, as how it is, people use teamspeak/skype/any other out of game thingies to communicate, but some people just want to keep it in the game, or if you meet someone you can't chat out of game with. Hand signals are silent and quick, but then there comes realism. Not just any survivor knows all the complicated military signals and stuff, but some simple things like shoving your hand down or up or some basic things that get the message to friendlies without everyone knowing you are there would be good. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zuulass 45 Posted August 29, 2013 being able to point in the place you are looking would be usefuland making numbers with your handsso if youre working with someone and being sneaky you could point at a group of people and show how many there are(if you are working with someone you found not talking to on skype or whatever) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

enforcer1975 1111 Posted August 29, 2013 Nice gimmicks but player almost never bothered using them in ACE... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Statik (DayZ) 2695 Posted August 29, 2013 It's a neat idea, but almost useless, because people just use 3rd party programs (i.e. TS, Skype, Mumble, Vent). ACE/ACRE has a hand signal system as TS is turned into direct chat, so there is need for silence, but it's hardly used. I only really use it to "high five" people, to "fist bump" people, and to wave bugs off my face. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
