matt.gilmurray@gmail.com 46 Posted June 27, 2012 Okay I have two ideas for this the first one is that it is just an in-game journal that automatically records the time and somewhat prominent events helping players keep tabs on their recent "excursions"e.g. 1:15 P.M. Killed a small horde (5+ Zombies) 2:36 P.M. Arrived in 3:56 P.M. Found 4:01 P.M. Killed a survivor/banditThis would probably be harder to implement than my second idea which is that it is a personal journal that you manually enter your own entries and can be dropped so you could leave other players messages and whatnot or have them pick up and read a story about a lone wanderer and his struggles surviving this world.TL;DR In-game journals 'nough said.

baN (DayZ) 3 Posted July 6, 2012 I like the manual entry idea, not only does it add an interesting RP factor, it would make great material for setting up ambushes :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Timmymachine109 (DayZ) 235 Posted July 10, 2012 +1 Really like the manual entry idea...could put something along the lines of "This is a trap" so someone could read it just before they die :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
