Diverse Hunting

[walrusintervention 0]

With DayZ being a Survival heavy game, hunting would fit well into the mix of survival aspects. I think it would be pretty cool to craft my own hunting blind, craft different decoys, create animal calls and actually attract animals to kill for a meal that is better than canned spaghetti or canned tuna. It would also be interesting to make jerky out of certain animal meats that would last long periods of time, and clothes from animal furs.

I know animals will make it into the game, and I like a lot of these ideas. Jerking meat and using animal calls/hunting blinds are new suggestions as far as I'm aware. Here's hoping this kind of thing makes it into the game :D

Animals are already confirmed. I don't know about the rest though.

The animals should definetely run from an approaching player, so that there will really be a "hunt" from time to time. In the mod the goat was always looking at me while I was swapping my shotgun for a hatchet :)

Use search function. Most  have been suggested but I like the ideas :)

Not sure if furcoats will make it in, but hunting is confirmed and Dean said they want to make it exciting and not too easy. Things like making your meat durable should definitly make it in the game, but I think we'll have to wait a few months till all the hunting stuff is in.

Find myself thinking of that scene in Men Who Stare At Goats as I read this... XD
