TrampoAG 1 Posted March 28, 2014 What do you guys think? Landmines in standalone, traps and shit, fields that you have to look twice before sprinting through. (Ideas? Improvements?) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DURRHUNTER 597 Posted March 28, 2014 (edited) Maybe later on when basses are implemented, but they need to be rare than 1911 Mags lol and you didnt have 3 words, Land and mine are 2 words mate Edited March 28, 2014 by DURRHUNTER 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TIC 1050 Posted March 28, 2014 I'd like to be able to craft traps instead of finding mines with ease that have a high explosive radius. Crafting traps could also contribute with base building as it could both require the same resources. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thedogfoodyayho 295 Posted March 28, 2014 I'de rather see an AT mine that only goes off for vehicles, and IED mines for players. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nexventor 429 Posted March 28, 2014 I am not sure I like the whole fire and forget type devices. It requires absolutely no skill to pop down a mine in a high traffic area. Booby traps in forests would be cool as long as it isn't insta-death type scenarios. Being caught upside by a leg rope trap and only a knife could set you free. Otherwise you would have to wait till someone finds you or you die of starvation would be interesting but running along and BOOM, is just no fun IMO. Another one could be something that breaks your legs and again you can get yourself out of it or get rescued but it's not just a silly insta-death. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
colekern 1364 Posted March 28, 2014 Maybe not mines... but an IED of some sort would be cool. Like a shrapnel bomb made up of gasoline and spare metal or something (yeah, i know that doesn't make sense, I'm just thinking out loud.) Sounds like a cool idea though. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mgc 92 Posted March 28, 2014 If there's going to be traps (whatever shape or form), there will need to be a way to disarm them. Finally a use for that bayonet? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DemonGroover 8836 Posted March 28, 2014 When i get my greedy little hands on some satchel charges there will be much fun to be had.....i used to love booby trapping ATC towers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
taco86 156 Posted March 28, 2014 (edited) I'm not for any kind of trip wire, pressure plate, or proxy bombs... The only "traps" that should be triggered in such a way are warning flares. The more "offensive" traps should all be remote detonated or timers via player control. Edited March 28, 2014 by taco86 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JiJi (DayZ) 223 Posted March 28, 2014 Alot of words: I don't know why mines couldn't be in there. Make them extremely rare, it's not rocket science setting them down. Because if rare, you would not afford to "abandon" it anywhere on the ground : you would immediately scavenge & get its precious high-explosive and turn into IED, remote bomb, time bomb...

The_Monk 320 Posted March 29, 2014 I like the idea of trip mines attached to tin cans, frag grenades, flares, spray cans and a lighter. Mostly as early warning systems. Land mines I think will end up only being put into the base of the stairwell at fire stations. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
smrtrthanavgbear 11 Posted March 29, 2014 (edited) Digging:-burying land mines-digging up land mines-creating zombie pits-creating mafia bases-creating hidden storage-creating hidden airfields-taking over parts of map : mafiaIt must have digging to be realistic! All the survivors of a apocalypse are either well armed or undergroundAnd one does not compare it to minecraft, it will be as realistic as possible, regardless of what content from other games it may have!
