papazombie 25 Posted March 27, 2014 Too fat and well shaved. Isnt true?I think characters should seem more dirty. One suggestion: Characters start shaved ans short hair and every week they survive hair and beard is growing(women just hair) and you can shave and cut if you want and have right stuff Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pillock 850 Posted March 27, 2014 Yeah, and if you don't wash regularly, then other players and zombies can smell you from a distance. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ig-rage 78 Posted March 27, 2014 why? this would be an annoyance, Although I agree with more customization options but not this. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
M0RG0TH 40 Posted March 27, 2014 There was some talk going around of the possibility that our characters may grow beards based on how long we survive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ptk (DayZ) 178 Posted March 27, 2014 While i never weighed my character ingame (devs haven't added scales yet obviously) i think that the look of the clothes you wore should degrade asthetically along with their condition (ex pristine, worn, ruined, etc...). it would be a solid way to address this issue...

pillock 850 Posted March 27, 2014 There was some talk going around of the possibility that our characters may grow beards based on how long we survive. There was indeed. And if I remember correctly, it was dismissed out of hand by Dean Hall in an interview because of "too much effort to implement something with minimal impact on the gameplay" or something. Which is a polite way of saying "Bollocks to that". 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I could have swore that i had a ruined shirt before but it didn't look ruined...yeah usually I see my sleeve is torn and dirty when the aim animation plays and that prompts me to check the rest of my gear - it could be a graphics setting tho - I tend to run all that pretty high 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So Sexy 259 Posted March 27, 2014 (edited) Its the same as asking, why can my char run 10 km, eat some beans, and run another 10 km, its not realistic I agree, but not a priority atm, and will be dealt with later, most likely.

Deathlove 2286 Posted March 27, 2014 Im pretty SURE it dosnt matter if there fat, skinny, muscular or handicap. If some one has enough adrenalin and the means to survive something they more than likely will. We do need maybe some weight options with character which would be nice as well as variety with zombie models. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

chekovp 89 Posted March 27, 2014 If there were weight/height options in DayZ, almost everyone would be an anorexic midget. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The_Monk 320 Posted March 27, 2014 If there were weight/height options in DayZ, almost everyone would be an anorexic midget. And all the fresh spawns would be huge fat men, running about punching people. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Iezza 108 Posted March 27, 2014 That could be balanced. Fatter = being able to hold more food in store without going sick. and you gradualy gain weight if you're constantly eating to the point where you're SUPER GREEN energized, could add some depth to the game Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
makomachine 263 Posted March 27, 2014 Could be we all have glandular problems due to fighting the infection!I'm all for more customize able characters in the final build - and an aging mechanic as well. Gives just another reason to stay alive to brag how old you are... Anything that makes people think survival first is a good idea IMO. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ThatSwoleGuy 22 Posted March 27, 2014 I stoutly support any effort in regards to customization, probably not large height differentials for reasons previously stated, people would just make their characters 3 ft tall. Probably no height changers for now and maybe ever. DEFINITELY good body type customization though, I work out and fitness is incredibly important to me.I hate seeing my scrawny skinny fat character. Can't look at him. Some customization would be great. IDC if people. Choose to be skinny for slightly smaller hitboxes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
