bioMatrix 4 Posted February 21, 2014 As you know, people who have been near-dead (or I imagine if they die and don't live to tell about it) have reported seeing strange phenomena: floating above, being in a light tunnel, and having their life flash before them. It doesn't go completely black. So when you die in Dayz why have the screen go blank? How about showing a white tunnel with black sillouete figures coming out and some spooky sounds. Maybe float above the ground where you lay for a short while. Make it like a real NDE. What do you think? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mithrawndo 166 Posted February 21, 2014 Interesting. I don't think it would take much resource for the game to take a screenshot once per minute, then instead of showing the black "You are dead" screen, once the server confirms your death it could start to flash the frames by one at a time, say at a rate of one image every tenth of a second (video geeks can advise on more useful numbers here, I'm sure) until it finally shows your body hitting the floor - and then the black "You are Dead."Neat, no?

blackberrygoo 1416 Posted February 21, 2014 I've thought of something like this as well , just no out of body experiences or heaven - like images , as they are too controversial haha . Iwould say that when you die , instead of instantly seeing the you're dead screen , we see our characters vision go extremely blurry and can just barely make out him falling to the ground ? Of course it would look best in first person and this is something everyone will experience so instead of just wondering if you were hit in the head with a bullet you could just barely make out what has happened to you . Like for example if you were shot in the head , right now it's just a black screen with this idea even if you were head shotted you would still have a chance to hear foot steps or barely make out the figure of the bandit heading towards you before your character closes his eyes for good .

Lupine 14 Posted February 21, 2014 you could also "tack on" and extra ending after the "life snapshot" run. if you are a zombie kill, then you rise up and trundle off to eat more brains, if you were a starvation.. u turn to bones and sinue, get covered in flies.. rot away >< . You could have some serious fun with this. B) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
