redcoat22 22 Posted February 9, 2014 Does anyone know if after the patch shooting someone in the legs causes them to break a leg ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zarniwoop 1193 Posted February 9, 2014 Have had my leg broken by a zombie so I guess it does. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gugolas 228 Posted February 9, 2014 It does, clearly it' s a possibility, not every shot will break legs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Element47 2480 Posted February 9, 2014 (edited) there was a twitter exchange with one of the devs about the tremendous fun of kneecapping. so i guess yeah. Edited February 9, 2014 by e47 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NagsterTheGangster 388 Posted February 9, 2014 I would assume so if a 5m fall or whatever broke my legs. (I had VERY little gear on me also) so it sounds like they're quite...fragile. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dirby12 33 Posted February 9, 2014 it was in the patch notes Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
redcoat22 22 Posted February 9, 2014 it was in the patch notesYeah, but I wasn't sure how effective it was. If I want to keep someone from running and not want to kill them I thought it would be a nice option. Cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

(I had VERY little gear on me also) so it sounds like they're quite...fragile.I've seen people break their legs IRL from a fall way less than 5m/15 ft ish... That's a much better system than snapping your leg from less than a meter, like before. I am definitely going to kneecap someone now though!

BadAsh (DayZ) 1513 Posted February 9, 2014 Hopefully they've also fixed the bug that caused broken legs to heal themselves if you relogged. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
drsheepbringer 10 Posted February 9, 2014 At least I didn't get my legs fixed when I relogged. I was crawling for 3-4 searching for sticks or morphine. Ended up bleeding to death from zombies. Ran out of bandages and ammo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dontstealmycheese 118 Posted February 9, 2014 Yes, you can kneecap people now. I got it tested it out on myself lol. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SpiraxSarco 23 Posted February 9, 2014 Careful climbing up stones on the middle of the forest, or even coming down, try not to pass over does, it can break your legs too... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gungza 29 Posted February 9, 2014 shot a guy in the leg with a mosin at long range, poor bastard was crawling around until a friend finished him off close range. RIP unknown guy who was at the wrong place at the wrong time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

abrown3 1 Posted February 10, 2014 Yes, getting shot in the leg can break it. It happened to me last night at the airfield. Hubby and I were looting and someone sniped me in the leg while I was going up the stairs to the tower.When I awoke from unconsciousness, I used the splint in my backpack to patch myself up. It was our first pvp experience in Dayz and my first splint --Just so happened to have crafted it a couple hours before. Phew, glad I did!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
spartanxapathy 203 Posted February 10, 2014 Hopefully they've also fixed the bug that caused broken legs to heal themselves if you relogged. I think so, I was waiting in a shed for a friend to come give me a split, logged to smoke and get a drink, logged back in when he was close. Legs still shattered. I'm glad they fixed it. Supposedly you can break arms with gunshots now? Can anyone confirm? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tobias winfro 305 Posted February 10, 2014 Shot a guy in the legs at about 10m with an SKS, broke his legs because he was too dumb to make sure his mic wasn't broadcasting. I heard him tell his buddies he was gonna try to rob me with no bullets. One round spent, then I went around and got a zombie train to assist with his passing into the spirit world Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nails 150 Posted February 11, 2014 Got teleported off a roof the other day and broke my leg. I was mad about it for a sec but then I was happy I wasn't dead and had morphine in my bag. It did ruin my pants and all the gear in them though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
