Grotick 1 Posted December 21, 2013 (edited) I've only had one good sit down session with the stand alone so I hope I'm wrong with this but as I've gotten to experience so far bleeding in the game is more miserable now than it was in the mod with the addition of a ton of melee. I died about five times in the few hours I played by just running up to people and starting fist fights. With the lack of items around right now it seems that you're done and over with by getting punched in the face just a couple times due to bloody nose. I do think you should continue to have the ability to knock somebody out and go unconcious but I don't think you should gush blood everywhere so easily to the point where you just need to die off. How do you all feel? Truth to that? Edited December 21, 2013 by Grotick Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
weparo 613 Posted December 21, 2013 Why don't you just bandage your wounds? Eat some food, have a drink and you're good. I agree though, bleeding from a fist fight is sorta stupid.. 'xept for nose bleeding, but that ain't lethal :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
luke.kta@gmail.com 17 Posted December 21, 2013 I do agree that bleeding in DayZ has always been a bit ridiculous... It's as if every vein in your body is as fragile as your jugular and every zombie is wolverine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grotick 1 Posted December 21, 2013 (edited) The first run I did I played it seriously and tried to supply my character. The only bandages I found were on dead players. There's really not a whole lot of loot right now in the spawning areas or much you can do when somebody like me runs up to you and just starts punching you in the head laughing. I don't think a player should be able to do so much damage so quickly. I think it can be very trolly. Edited December 21, 2013 by Grotick Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SalamanderAnder (DayZ) 1747 Posted December 21, 2013 I died about five times in the few hours I played by just running up to people and starting fist fights. So what do you think you should stop doing? Pff. Lack of items. Give me a break. Stop getting yourself killed in the cities by being pointlessly hostile with no weapon and maybe you'll live long enough to find some. :rolleyes: 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was just having fun with the new drunk over the mic fist fight in the streets feature and thought it was a bit much. I guess there probably is a ton of stuff in the game when you take your time and avoid/supply but I do love running around causing trouble though. ^^ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Grotick 1 Posted December 21, 2013 :facepalm: LOL! You can't tell me it's not the funniest thing in the world to just start running up behind people screaming, punching and maybe someday kicking. Just having fun is all. : ) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hogscraper 328 Posted December 21, 2013 The SA only takes a couple punches to the head before it knocks you out. That's fairly realistic and a decent trade off because it works against zombies as well. Two or three punches to a zombie's head and you shouldn't need to worry about it any more, just keep punching the head as it gets up and it will go right back down until it dies. You're not going unconscious because of a lack of blood you're going unconscious because the game is made to be able to knock people out. In a real fist fight it only takes one good punch to put your opponent on his ass. I grew up in a place where fighting happened every day and its not surprising to see a guy get dropped by a couple hard punches. Hopefully if they add skills to the game you can start to take more punches the more you fight. I would love to see Dayz bum fights under a bridge somewhere. The amount of blood you do lose is a different issue altogether, though. Every wound should release a certain amount. Unless every zombie is literally ripping open your body with every punch the loss is way too drastic. And yes, the first thing you should always do when you spawn is rip up your own shirt. See a shirt on the ground, rip it up. See a dead guy take off his shirt and make some rags. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
