Hunting and more guns.

[HaloGuy212 2]

There should be hunting animals like: Moose, Deer, Ducks and Wild Chickens. The guns should be a 30-06 bolt action 30-30 for the moose/deer/humans lever action 12 gauge Shot 4-10 shotgun for Wild Chickens/Ducks/Humans. Thanks

They should be rare

Shotgun with slugs for large game...pellets in different sizes for small game. It's quite the versatile weapon imo.

when i do the gun upgrade looting military places, sometimes i keep a winchester or a enfield to hunt..i'm good with more animals too, but some should be rarer.. not casually generated

Remember, eastern block weapons only :)

If you hit the deer with a bad shot you might have to follow a blood trail to its body.

Animals should be much rarer but leave small hints that they're in the area like poop and stuff.

and i think they should avoid infected areas, so you should really go hunting, not just sitting waiting for them to be generated in the outskirts of town..

Definitely they should flee in the presence of humans or zombies, zombies might occasionally be seen snacking on a deer corpse or chasing one through the forest.

that reminds me a sort of fallout casual encounter style..could be interesting..i mean, we already have heli crash sites and car sites (dayzero at least)..seeing a live nature fits the game i think..more survival and less pvp is always good..we could need some dangerous animal aswell..bees, bears..more aggressive boars..maybe wolves

I mean just by legitimate chance not a special spawned in event though.

one thing I wouldn't mind though... Is crashed trucks with some attractive cargo.

Bloc, and no.

Eastern Bloc weapons are not the only weapons you find in Post-Soviet states. There are a surprising amount of American/Western civilian weapons over there.

Things like the; Remington 870, Ruger 10/22, Mossberg 500/590 series, Mini 14, Remington 700 and Springfield M1A weapons are pretty common

(At least in countries like the Czech Republic, which is apparently part of the basis for the Standalone's weaponry)

 

[And the Remington 870 and 10/22 are in the standalone]

Nooo! I hate bees, I hate them so much!

Do you like honey?

It's okay, but I've only ever had it once.

I thought that Rocket already planned on doing this in SA but the animals AI was screwed up?  Don't take my word on this but that's what I heard.

It would be kind of hard giving them proper animations and AI... look at the current cows and boars just standing there like lumps. Only the rabbit gives any sport.

Yeah the AI for animals would pretty much have to be completely redone.  I'm all for the idea though.  I would love to see more complex hunting in SA.

Agreed. It'd be beautiful to see an SA with DayZero like weapons. All redone to fit the location. Adding to the authenticity and realism of the game.

I see no problem with the authenticity of a .30-06 and a 12 gauge. The .30-06 is very popular in Europe.
