rydekk 250 Posted February 1, 2014 I was wondering... This could be the best "hold you up" counter that there is; Al jazeer ich ichbinmachdad Suicide vest! Blow yourself up when in risk of dying or being hold up. That'll teach those pesky bandits and KoS!!!! >XD 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

creature 1189 Posted February 1, 2014 I gladly give up 6-8 storage slots for such a thing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
apollovulcan 93 Posted February 1, 2014 (edited) It shouldn't even need to be that much. All you should need for a suicide vest in game is some sort of watch or detonator, some wiring, and an explosive (grenade, satchel charge if they make it over, mine, etc). I think a 2x2 would be appropriate if grenades are a one slot item, a button, watch, and some wire shouldn't be more than 1 each. Would be a brilliant surprise for any teenie boppers coming to put you in handcuffs and feed you their spray. Edited February 1, 2014 by McG2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
applejaxc 2500 Posted February 1, 2014 It would have to be improvised/home-made like IEDs, not something you can loot ready-made. OH! And what about a dead man switch, so when you're shot, you just fucking explode and all your gear is useless to whoever shot you? It would make melee combat more interesting. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
korpisoturi (DayZ) 127 Posted February 1, 2014 Also, dead man switch when in holdout. Just got to keep yourself in range ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
frosti 2165 Posted February 1, 2014 (edited) When tents made it to in game it will be exploitable. What will happen: Some squad will farm bomb materials, hide it into their tents, then they will make freshpawn trolls with bombs. Extremly exploitable on private servers with admins. On public hives it can be countered tho with people finding big squads tents. Edited February 1, 2014 by Frosti Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TedZ 424 Posted February 1, 2014 This would be great, run into a gang and say give me your gear or you'll blow them up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

On public hives it can be countered tho with people finding big squads tents. Yeah, I can see it being a major ass problem if this is implemented. Some asshat KOSer with a bomb, running around trying to axe people to death for shits and grins. Kill him, get blown up anyways. Lots of giggles for the KOSer, lots of grief for the blown up player. No wonder the KOS crowd loves this idea. DO NOT WANT Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dannynickelov 126 Posted February 1, 2014 This was suggested before, you want to cause some international problems with this game because of suicide bombing and such? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
1S1K-Airborne 148 Posted February 1, 2014 This was suggested before, you want to cause some international problems with this game because of suicide bombing and such? I couldn't care less, that's not why I oppose the idea. If you bow to jihad in a stupid game, pretty soon you'll be doing it in real life. Man up, grow a pair. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

IkaikaKekai 1957 Posted February 1, 2014 Just give me a grenade and some string. Grenade goes in pocket, pin comes out, string goes around grenade, string goes around finger, hand goes up, grenade goes up, spoon goes up, grenade goes boom. That or I can just pull the pin and drop it when they get close to cuff me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lady Kyrah 1110 Posted February 1, 2014 Just make grenades be primed on key PRESS and thrown on key RELEASE. If you want to go suicidal, just hold your grenade key down and go hug people. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TEST_SUBJECT_83 465 Posted February 1, 2014 (edited) I think it would be cooler if you could create one out of a vest and some grenades attached to a dead mans switch. Edited February 1, 2014 by TEST_SUBJECT_83 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sonic-NKT 38 Posted February 1, 2014 well i like the idea...but it should only be craftable and atleast one item has to be super rare (explosives), nothing that can be found in 3 hours after you spawn.Would be a nice suprise for bandits :) and if its something that is not clearly visible to others it could also be a way to get out of situations... and btw, this is a game where you can snipe innocent people, axe them or even sadisticly torture them... you can do and will do a lot more worse things in the game than wearing a bomb vest...sure it will be used for suciding or even force someone to wear it but it would also be a good life insurance.

Blow yourself up when in risk of dying or being hold up. That'll teach those pesky bandits and KoS!!!! >XDKoSers don't hold you up, bandits are part of the game and getting robbed add some apocalypctic realism. but a suicide vest or such is way too OP for this. I admit bandits and KoSers would decrease due to the fact all the victim's gear would be useless...but I don't think it's a viable idea (PD: loved the vest's name) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
