SUGGESTION: Armlets/Armbands

[crx 3]

The search didnt came up with something usefull, so....

 

What about adding armlets or giving the ability to craft them out of rags. so a group of players can identify among each other. 

You could also add different symbols on the armlets to e.g. mark yourself as medic. Which, if you could establish it in the community, could be used to mark yourself as (semi)friendly. Kind of like the "PRESS"-vest.

How about the type that help you swim so we can get to islands quicker?

Someone posted a very similar thing this morning to /r/dayz, might be worth having a flick over.

All of my beans. I would absolutely love this feature as a means of identifying your group. Just tear up a shirt or use one of the many bandannas that you come across to tie on your arm and BAM! 80% less hesitation and team killing across the board!
