molotov cocktails,forest fires and firing up buildings

[valtsuh 68]

So molotov cocktail would be made of bottle of liquor or gasoline,glass bottle and rags.It would make new wound class "burns" what cant be healed if those are huge wounds but if those were small wounds those would heal in time.Burns would effect you like pain so when you aim it would shake.And when you have crafted an molotov you could throw it with your bare hands but it could make burns to your hand so if you want throw molotov safely you would need cloves.
 
Forest fires, so it would make cool large smoke and it would distract zombies.You cant start forest fire when its raining. and there would be like 40% chance to make forest fire 0% when its raining and 10% chance after raining or something like that.but that will kill fps but if forest fires would be sized like 10x10m.When its raining only lighting could make forest fire.

You know that moment when you are in building and you are surrounded that sucks, but if you are one who surround people into buildings you could just burn him up if you start burning the house.So it could work like forest fires you have like 80% chance to burn up wooden house,40% of burning brick house or stone house. If you are in house what burns you could get text like "i can smell smoke" then you have time to get out but after that you will get text "i am getting dizzy because of smoke" then you are in trouble.

What do you think? Post your opinions and ideas!

I want them to work on fixing all the current problems with the game and then focus on adding things into the game.

Molotov cocktails maybe, forest fires no due to it being  FPS killer for some users who have basic gaming rigs {or even family pcs} burning buildings ummm unsure on this one

if i could put some pictures on this suggestion i was talking about small forest fires like 10x10m

ahhh i see, well yeah why not...what would be the purpose of them tho? lighting strikes that cause small forest fires?

"You want FPS-problems and FPS-drops?

Say YES to wild fires and setting houses on fire!"

 

;)

 

 

TBH, I like molotov.

 

But not setting houses and the woods on fire.

Imagine 8 people and each one throwing 4 molotovs in the forest.

That would end up pretty much with an area of 800 m² of fire...

Then a "whole clan" (of ~15+ players) could bring down the NASA-PCs to under 5 FPS, I bet ;)

 

(What I want to say: The wild- and house-fires are too easy to be "exploited")

 

 

 

 

 

Also:

For me, it seems, that most people suggest things, but they only imagine, that they have the advantage of this.

Imagine: You are sitting in a house and people surround you.

They only need 1-2 bottles and you are dead.

No "honorable" fight with guns, aiming, patience and skill.

Just 1 bottle and the job is done.

 

 

Is this, what you want?

IMO, the "smoking someone out" will make DayZ "unreal", but it will add more fairness.

 

Lemme guess, you surrounded a player and he killed 1-2 of your buddies..? ;)

Definate yes to Molotov cocktails,

and as a craftable item that you would need to find the bottle,gasoline and create a rag   :D

well yeah havent think that but it is good idea

There would be a limit to forest fires, they don't burn the entire forest down, and it rains so often they couldn't last for long.

However, I love this idea, really hope the mentality of the creators are "if we're going to make a standalone, it better screw the limits of gaming till it is chafing" that is to say, push the limits :3 this has the opportunity to be the most realistic game in history! If I'm not seeing this game in the record books above rust, for a number of years, you've failed.

Flame based weapons in general I want.

Course, everytime I suggest flamethrowers to someone, that's when they get real quiet, cause they realize the predicament that they're in.  :blink:

 

Forest fires...not really a whole lot of use/fun for the huge fps drop and exploitability.

Burning buildings and individual objects however, sounds useful, although idk about this either because of the time it would take to implement and the resulting fps drop. I'm thinking more an area of effect that burns for a minute on contact.

only if the house will get on fire like i said there is chances the house wont get on fire, and you wont have molotovs lot,

And how many liquor bottles have you found.

80% for wooden house, 40% for normal house.

So 1-2 for wooden, and 2-3 for normal house should do the job.

 

also, can't you use fuel+liquor/oil for lamps for the bottle?

And even if glass bottles would be 50% more rare than canteens/bottles, you would still find enough, I believe.
