bonesnap 75 Posted June 27, 2012 I would almost dare say to make bear traps work against zombies only, but rather than go to that extent I think thedukey3 has the idea, they should be hella rare that way we can forget about them then accidentally walk into one ha.

Disgraced 1123 Posted June 27, 2012 I agree that basic stuff should be fixed rather than worry about the headache of problems beartrap introduction will cause' date=' not even including the crazy amount of griefing it will bring. I guess new stuff is always nice, but I have a feeling it will go down the route of barb wire fencing and take an even worse turn.Vehicle spawns are stupid rare and needs to be completely retooled/changed so jackwads can't hoard, bagging guns needs a fix (they disappear), hatchet should sit in toolkit and use F to change to so you don't have to give up your main gun, and a zombies hitting/going through walls fix is 100x more important than giving trolls new weapons.. uhh but I guess trolls need to be fed? =/[/quote']+100.

FieldMedic 7 Posted June 27, 2012 A bear trap should be just that, a trap. Something you don't see and stumble into. It should be easy enough to remove that it does not become an area denial weapon. Disarming (and presumably collecting) should be as easy as accessing the middle mouse button menu. No special tools should be required, we're not disarming land mines here.EDIT: Technically it is an area denial weapon, just not an insurmountable one :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gattsocean 0 Posted June 27, 2012 hey, Rocket, as much as i love this mod and everything.. you're giving way too much power to the people who are exploiting this game so much.. i can't find very many servers that don't have a whole town's main loot buildings that aren't completely blocked by barbed wire.. i can't get into a single fire station or school because of of it.. and adding bear traps will only add to the people doing this, keeping it so bad.. i know it's mostly just me whining about what people are doing with things.. but we all know how this is going to help grievers, and turn DayZ into even more of a "join a bandit group or get nothing" kind of thing..so all in all.. even with the whining and everything, i just want you to at least have a way to combat people from turning DayZ into TDM with zombies Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Deadman (DayZ) 0 Posted June 27, 2012 First of all: sorry for my english, 2nd lang..I feel like i have to mention everybody should keep in mind that this thread is for bug reporting of the comming patch. Guess you are rocket and have to read all dis discussions and off topic stuff and filter only the useful stuff for bug reporting and reqeusts about the last patch.I think rocket got his buddies to filter this out, if im hornest, i dont think rocket is even one person :) but its just a feel, im quite new here.But please try to help him/them to do what we all want them to do and discuss stuff like sound in fog and how realistic something is in other threads. I read this pending ,rolling threads for about a week now here and there and i have problems to follow cause threads are just exploding.Another thing is all these quotes of quotes of quotes. Just remove everything in a quote that u dont need, not quote eveything ,making a page here like 20 lines of unknown text.This is not thought as a trollpost, but the idea is to get things back to topic and create some interesting threads beside this one.My3cent Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Disgraced 1123 Posted June 27, 2012 I would bet that the bear traps can be closed up by hand, without a toolbox.That way, it just gets the unwary or the infected.Well, except the smart ones with the guns. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
harkonian 4 Posted June 27, 2012 Agree. The thread is now 160 pages -- too big to find relevant information.rocket: I see you are updating the OP with new patch notes. Could you also add any other changes, such as planned patch times, etc so we have one place to look for it? Thanks!To the people who are whining about why it isn't out yet - try reading the thread! rocket has already stated why. You're behaving like zombies.I did' date=' and I didn't ask, but it's not easy thumbing through all these constantly growing pages. It might not be a bad idea to update the main post with the new time.[/quote']McTitties is right, if the OP gets updated, there will be less of those when-is-it-out questions.

mace_dragon 0 Posted June 27, 2012 I don't know if it's already been said but there is an exploit for the m1911 and revolver regarding infinite ammo.For example, one can convert partially used m1911 ammo to revolver ammo and back to m1911 for a full magazine. Possible temporary fix could be that you need the gun to convert ammo for it. Like, you can't convert m1911 ammo to revolver ammo unless you have the revolver in your inventory.

SteveZGaming 6 Posted June 27, 2012 I'm okay with the barb wire, but at least add a way to take it down or something. Every time I join a server people are always putting Barb wire in random places and blocking buildings off...I can understand why they do it, but I would like to see a way to take it down or something so its not so annoying all the time.Best,SteveZ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GrimDaSinner 0 Posted June 27, 2012 I figure toolboxes will be able to disarm bear traps. In case people(^) didn't know, toolboxes already give you the option to remove tank traps/wirefences. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And bear traps, with the current flaws of every other placed object IS game breaking.The patch notes state specifically they fixed the ability to infinitely spawn wire fences from a single kit. (can also be done with sandbags) NOT that they fixed the fact they re-spawn AFTER server restarts. Or that they're reducing how common they are, or making them more difficult to install (i.e. Toolbox needed.)So peoples fears of the bear traps may or may not be justified. It depends on if the real issues are patched in this same update too. I for one like the idea of the traps just not in the current state of item duping.Someone said previously, if it behaves the same as the fences/tanktraps the major towns will be impossible.

Is the problem here the fact that I dare to express a dissenting opinion?Do I MUST post bug reports to qualify in order to post an opinion?My opinion is a productive one, because I firmly believe that adding autonomous weapons (eg. Bear Traps) will affect this game in a negative way. It's not a BUG, but I believe that it's a bad idea and the game can be better off without things of this nature.It's not a complaint, it's a warning.Original post:http://dayzmod.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=18575&pid=204165#pid204165 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
