Crafting News - Can this be confirmed?

[Gekkonidae 270]

So I'm reading my morning DayZ news with coffee before I dive into a full day of work and ran across this article posted about an hour ago:

 

http://segmentnext.com/2014/01/17/dayz-standalone-crafting-and-recipies-guide/

 

Is all of this true? Can anyone confirm?

 

If it is, hollllly shit this is awesome!

[Korsbaek 1778]

It's true. There's going to be an extensive crafting system in the game.

[Gekkonidae 270]

Yeah, but i'm wondering with the recipes already out, if this will be in the game soon?

I believe this was actually for the mod.

I tried crafting optics when they announced this. It didn't work out so well.

It's pretty sweet

[Gekkonidae 270]

so basically, the beer was the only thing that made this little adventure worth it? :)

[teufel937 49]

Stella Artois, good choice.

But back on topic, they should make it a little more... believable, if you are going to craft a grenade launcher.....

C'mon now...

Haha Gews, cant wait to lie in the grass, put the scope to my eye - "I can feel blood dripping"

 

These recipes for grenade launcher or acog will never make it to the standalone, they contradict everything dean wants this game to be like.

[moneyboy 5]

Craft a kitchenknife on a stick would be nice, in my opinion is all this military stuff really annoying. What was Chernarus a Country of Veterans and broken Warheads?

[blacklabel79 949]

cant wait to craft some "just married" rope ( excuse me iam not a native engl. speaker ) made of 1x rope and 6x empty bean cans ! It will attrack zombies like nothing else...run through town..no pants...and play your fav. song...

Spike Trap

A Spike Trap is a placeable pit of spikes that will break a victim's legs.

How-to-Craft: You'll need 2 Rubber Balls combined with Water, Unicorn's Blood and 1 Hose Clamp

[Gugolas 228]

Most of those recipies are from the mod, and who played the mod recently knows that.

The guy wanted to become popular with an unuseful article, no "leaked" news.

We will see what crafting will become with the evolving of the game.

[Gekkonidae 270]

Someone kick that guy off the internet then.

[svisketyggeren 662]

Well...we have different experiences with online craftig systems...from the description I would label the crafting system as well-rounded, not extensive. Games like Mortal Online have a extensive crafting system.

Beat me to it. If that makes it into the game I will be incredibly disappointed. "Lets have really complex Medical and Crafting system, but make it so you can make an ACOG sight and GL with pipes..."

 

2″ x 2″ Metal Pipe, 2 Metal Sheets, and 1 Hose Clamp; I'm curious which one of those items is used for the lens.

 

 

Crafting a .50 Rifle:

You'll need: 1x4' Metal Pipe, Bullets.

i think the guy who wrote the article is just dreaming.  there is no confirmation on that.

just a kid dreaming he can craft nuclear weapons out of a bucket and some wood.

I either want a mod to bash this or cryptically say it could be true!

haha! This would only work if your name was Teemo. And even then, you would probably die.

Pretty much.

[Baarn 53]

There are hundreds of "blogs" out there that basically just collect random information from wiki pages, such as this one. Usually from topics that are currently top of google results, they try to catch as many of those hits to make money on ads or increase the value of their domain.

 

Basically just the usual SEO scum.

[spartanxapathy 203]

Then I'd plant mushrooms all over elektro, get fed, and own everybody.

 

I actually hate Teemo...

Wood:

An Apple of Eden, 4 nuclear weapons, a set of chemical weaponry, and last, but not least, a hose clamp.

 

This is the reason I'm not that interested in Rust, I mean, wood pieces, some metal chunks, and a campfire. All of that, plus some other stuff will get you a revolver. WTF

Yeah he sounds like a reliable source alright.

[somethingbloody 118]

Definitely looks like bullshit. The components are crazy wrong, of course.

On the other hand, the weapon designer for Metro 2033 and Last Light is actually an engineer/machinist and the improvised firearms in that game are amazing. A lot of them wouldn't fit the tone of DayZ, but they were all designed to be plausible. I could certainly see the break action shotguns fitting in (the Ashot and Duplet). Maybe even the revolver shotgun. The pneumatic crossbow and ball-bearing gun (Helsing and Tihar) are awesome, but not appropriate.

The main issue is that it would be near impossible to actually make any of these simple fire-arms without access to a machining shop, and most of the tools involved would need electricity. I would actually like to see those sorts of tools added to some of the machine shops (there is at least one in Berezino) and garages, along with petrol generators to power them if you bring fuel. That sort of crafting requiring extended scavenging, travelling and preparation would really help with endgame economy and natural player goals.

[Gekkonidae 270]

^That would be pretty amazing for a sort of end-game crafting. I like a lot of the ideas that Origins has and some they haven't implemented yet. Like the crafting abilities and whatnot. Some really cool base ideas there.
