Mazzar 231 Posted January 12, 2014 (edited) Hey guys, quick topic How about a repair system similar to that of fallout?Concept... You have a worn item, you find the same item in the same condition, you can combine it to upgrade your original item into a pristine, deleting the 2nd item you found. Simple, easy and gives the player a chance to overcome the quality system. For instance, ive found about 30+ non-stock attachments for the M4, never pristine. (Not including scopes, ive found plenty of pristine scopes) Edited January 12, 2014 by Mazzar 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Korsbaek 1778 Posted January 12, 2014 So if I have two worn car wheels, I can combine them to make one which is pristine? Tell me, how would you do that in real life?.. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Space Milk 195 Posted January 12, 2014 First off, it shouldn't directly make them pristine, rather, for each repair it slighty increases the condition, enough repairs result in jumping a condition. Depending on the condition of the stuff.Korsabek, you get 2 worn tires, they are NOT exactly the same. One might have something in it that is perfect condition but the other one doesn't. You take the best parts of 2 tires and combine them. That is how it works. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So if im wearing a ballistic vest, i can only take 2 shots before its ruined?Tell me, how would you do that in real life?..So if im sick, and have antibiotics Tell me, how do i know which one to take?.. Erthromycin, vanomycin, penicillin? Maybe its viral?So if i broke my leg, and have morphine, i can inject and fix it? Tell me, how do you do that in real life?.. This is a GAME, not frustration incarnate (althought close to it) and not survivor sim 2014, proudly brought to you by farming sim 2013. Its dayz, its more of a deathmatch than survivor sim, despite what you may want, that is what it is, and always will be. Also as for the concept, yeah it doesnt go pristine instantly, read what i wrote, i said it was worn, the next quality after worn is pristine.

Master V 8 Posted January 12, 2014 good idea man i always loved the fallout repair system would look great in this but im not sure it would work very well. :thumbsup: 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mazzar 231 Posted January 12, 2014 good idea man i always loved the fallout repair system would look great in this but im not sure it would work very well. :thumbsup: Yeah agreed, but i think this would be a good starting point for a dayz repair system, doesnt have to be identical.

SFRGaming 718 Posted January 12, 2014 I still think you would need tools along with this. It also should have a decent timer on it. in fallout you can repair items in a split second. DayZ, if it were to have this, should take MUCH longer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chauz 166 Posted January 12, 2014 Think it shouldn't be a 100% upgrade. As you don't always have working pieces, and it should take some to even get near pristine as you cant really put 2 crappy items together to get a perfect one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
