spray mark buildings as searched

[Tombob (DayZ) 12]

there should be a way to mark buildings as searched... when spawning and we go through a town it would be awsome if we could make each building with an "X" or somthing using the spay color, that way you could scavange more effectivly and when going through a new town you can tell if its looted already' also extremly usful when looting with in a party,

perhaps there should be several marks you could make, but i dont think free drawing is a good idea for obvious misuse

 

sorry for my bad english  :P

1. try to recognize it
2. useless anyways.. since new lootmechanics make this obsolete

I open doors of houses I haven't searched. I'd mark them as well if it were possible.

Just so you know.

I'd love this in the game, huge support for this.

 

EDIT: To be able to spray paint on a group's base wall somewhere would be amazing as well. Like, sneak up on it while the group is out and leave a mark on the wall in red spray.

Free drawing is a great idea: I was very disappointed when i couldn't paint a graffiti with the spray can. 
But i think it's something really hard to implement.

Things like this would be great:

I can't imagine it being too hard to introduce.

Make it a weapon of sorts and make it's bullet holes be spray splotches/circles you can spray in a design.

I can only imagine the amount of penises I would find at NWAF and the cities...

I would like to see more uses for spray paint as well as more color options

Don't open, dead inside. Read up-down on both doors.

Marking buildings sounds kind of useless because loot respawns and that doesn't happen in real life where marking buildings would be useful. But drawing stuff with spray cans on walls would be sweetl.

When I first watched the episode I read it that way first aswell lol

For a sec I was like WTF!?!? :)

I fully support the idea of free drawing with spraypaint and I was also very disapointed when I wasn't able to. And when discussing the "abuse" this could lead to: how much more than regular graffiti painters can gamers abuse this? Sure there'll be a few male hens, Richards and some profane language around but isn't that very realistic when you think about it?

Sure, there isn't much use for the paint other than aesthetics but to me it seems weird to implement a thing and then not being able to use it for the thing it was designed for originally. That's like implementing guns that everyone knows don't work.

 

Also I think there should be a great variety of colors other than black and green paint. You know you want that pink mosin!

[energeticsheep 95]

The problem with being able to freely use a spray can or whatever in order to write/draw something will most definitely lead to some prick drawing a massive shaft on the wall of a church or a schoolhouse. It's very likely to be abused so I don't support it.

However, if it weren't going to be abused (which it is) then it would be a great idea.

 

Back onto the topic of actually marking buildings with an X or some other shape; I think the idea is definitely cool, but what's the use of it when the idea of an open door generally means the building has been looted. It doesn't serve much purpose other than doing what leaving a door open does.

Yeah 'cause in a game where many people pose as friendly just to kill you easier, spraypainted dicks would be inappropriate.

[Moira 2]

Yay, a pink Mosin... that's a must have. That and a yellow raincoat, AND I'll have fun on neaf.

Agreed. Killing people, force feeding them house chemicals, breaking their legs = OK. But painted pictures of dicks = TOO MUCH. I don't see the logic here...
