pillock 850 Posted March 11, 2014 ,if they don't fix the availability issue and or crafting issue on sticks, they need to patch in the ability to suicide. Real life option and crawling for 2 hours isn't fun... Next time you find a disinfectant bottle, take it with you. If you ever run out of sticks or morphine and then break your legs, there's your suicide option. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DerDuderich 149 Posted March 11, 2014 (edited) they need to patch in the ability to suicide. Real life option and crawling for 2 hours isn't fun... I'm not sure if it is really that easy. Sure, if you have a button "Press X and be dead" everybody will do it to get a better spawn location. But reality is different. I never actually tried to kill myself, but I have read that it is actually pretty hard (without the right tools). First of all it requieres a lot of mental strength. Many people whine around that they (maybe) will kill themselves in order to get attention, but few people actually do it. Doing it is something else than talking about it. And then most things are not "secure death".Cutting your arterys, shooting yourself, jumping from a height place - with a little bit (un-) luck you can survive all these things. Next time you find a disinfectant bottle, take it with you. If you ever run out of sticks or morphine and then break your legs, there's your suicide option. Rotten fruit works too.

Robert Neville 59 Posted June 3, 2014 Same problem. Server glitched when I was on a ladder and I broke my leg. Luckily I was on the top of the NWAF and was able to fall to my demise. I agree, game should allow players to use an axe or machete on trees to craft sticks. And suicide should be implemented too, via cyanide pills. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LeChat 131 Posted June 3, 2014 (edited) Same problem. Server glitched when I was on a ladder and I broke my leg. Luckily I was on the top of the NWAF and was able to fall to my demise. I agree, game should allow players to use an axe or machete on trees to craft sticks. And suicide should be implemented too, via cyanide pills. Experimental build, you can make sticks from bushes and logs (logs you get from chopping down trees), you can search for sticks as well... so, there's an abundance of sticks now (as there should be in forested areas). Where on earth would you get cyanide pills? Just have it so you can commit suicide, requiring either rope, knife, pistol, shotgun...

Robert Neville 59 Posted June 3, 2014 Where on earth would you get cyanide pills? Just have it so you can commit suicide, requiring either rope, knife, pistol, shotgun... Some secret military bases could store them. But it agree that it would be much simpler to allow the player to kill himself with a knife or gun. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
finnpalm 312 Posted June 4, 2014 If I'm not mistaken the ability to cut sticks from trees will be introduced in a future update. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rotteck 104 Posted June 4, 2014 If I'm not mistaken the ability to cut sticks from trees will be introduced in a future update. it is already on experimental. you will be able to cut down trees, and get sticks and wood. did seriously no one knew this ???!

finnpalm 312 Posted June 4, 2014 it is already on experimental. you will be able to cut down trees, and get sticks and wood. did seriously no one knew this ???! Oh, it's already on exp? Neat-o. I read it in some dev blog I think. I guess people don't bother to keep updated. Just like the tons of people who complain about the infected glitching through walls, even though Dean stated a long time ago that they were working on a solution, and recently even showed some progress on what they've been working on.

blacklabel79 949 Posted June 5, 2014 i dunno...i find sticks rather easy. normaly takes me around 20 minutes to have a courier bag and normaly in the next 15 i find sticks. look harder ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

finnpalm 312 Posted June 7, 2014 i dunno...i find sticks rather easy. normaly takes me around 20 minutes to have a courier bag and normaly in the next 15 i find sticks. look harder ;) Hey, can you "add" sticks to a courier bag to make the survivor backpack, or do you have to assemble all the parts at the same time?

blacklabel79 949 Posted June 7, 2014 (edited) Hey, can you "add" sticks to a courier bag to make the survivor backpack, or do you have to assemble all the parts at the same time? yes, but you have to drop and empty it, than upgrade. I try to follow a certain routine. Make rags, find random bits you might need later *rope, sack, sticks any form of ammo, saw* EAT. Aquire cargo pants and/or backpack. EAT. Later *depending on my luck finding the burlap sack* , craft courier bag and clean up inventory. *EAT* Exchange cargo pants for jeans again. If no morphine at this point, first sticks will be crafted to splints. next ones for upgrading the pack. works since some time...

That was much needed. Great to hear. Thanks for info. I'm getting back into the game again after a couple months absence. :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stellatyler 0 Posted June 9, 2014 Rather ironically I suffered a leg break just minutes after posting my comment, and I didn't have either a stick and/or morphine. Not only that there is a bug where you cannot crawl out of some of the buildings, thus trapping me.Big thanks to TMW and Marijke and FabulousGeorge (Matt) for their euthanasia skills. http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/160262-need-medical-assistance-in-dayz-sa-find-your-medic-here [Removed] I agree with a portion of the publications above when they say the damage ought to be more granular than it is presently. Simply getting a part and/or morphine shouldn't be the distinction between slithering and sprinting. There necessities to be more stages between An and B and for those stages to influence your character. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
elmorgan 3 Posted June 9, 2014 I chose to fix my situation and not be a quitter. I spent 6 hours crawling through sheds, hen houses, hunter trap-houses, barns, houses, attics, warehouses, farms, military bases, hospitals and FORESTS. I could not find not one "Wooden Sticks" spawn. Not one... BELLYLOLZ. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

blacklabel79 949 Posted June 10, 2014 Then I don't understand your post. You cant pick appart splits after having them crafted...same with the Advanced" improvised pack...ugh..i thought that was the question :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
finnpalm 312 Posted June 10, 2014 You cant pick appart splits after having them crafted...same with the Advanced" improvised pack...ugh..i thought that was the question :D No, I didn't understand your earlier post. I thought you were saying that you usually made a courier backpack, and then later you'd find sticks, so I thought since you mentioned that you'd find sticks after making the courier backpack that it had some relevans to already having the courier bag. Not just "Hey I have a bag, and now I have some sticks as well". ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blacklabel79 949 Posted June 11, 2014 Not just "Hey I have a bag, and now I have some sticks as well". ;) That too, depending on if i have morphine or not i use the first sticks for either Splint or for upgrading the courier bag. :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
