VonHoth 3 Posted May 23, 2014 They never said for this patch. The next thing would only be camp fire. No way we can set zombies on fire. It would crash the whole game im sure at this point. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It would crash the whole game im sure at this point.Oh I didn't say that it would be coming out , just when fireplaces were announced to come out in this patch about a week ago I could have sworn something was said about eventually being able to set things aflame , and I meant foliage not zombies but that'd be neat haha .. Ill just have to dig up the link maybe I mistook it for something else . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cuddly_rabbit 102 Posted May 23, 2014 How about we focus on the survival and therefore the creative aspect first... before we go into the "how to make it pvp-ish" aspect and then find all the possibilities for sick (ab)use? Setting hostages on fire, burning whole forests... melting faces... you got to be kidding me. This is not a sociopath/psychopath/pyromaniac/sadism simulator game. It is about surviving and doing what it takes to manage. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Setting hostages on fire, burning whole forests... melting faces... you got to be kidding me. This is not a sociopath/psychopath/pyromaniac/sadism simulator game. It is about surviving and doing what it takes to manage.While setting things on fire isn't a "survivalistic" thing per se the game is in alpha and that stage is for feature developement, and If I'm not mistaken that is a feature ... Haha but anyways you never wanted to throw a Molotov into a house of camping bandit squads ? Like how else are we supposed to infiltrate a house with m4s sticking out all the windows except for sacrificing our lives over and over again , that doesn't seem like survival to me , hence burning down the interior of the house forcing them out .And remember this is supposed to be the apocalypse , I'm all for tree hugging too but when people are threatening you and all you have is a bottle of booze /gas a lighter and a rag you're going to use it to defend yourself , especially if you've already been spotted and have no guns ... Sneaking around as a fresh spawn trying to loot only works for so long , and besides seeing a system like spreading fire would be revolutionary and truly show that dayz can break through any barriers presented by multiplayer games ..

Girth Brooks 570 Posted May 23, 2014 Molotov would be nice for clearing houses, items would be easy to find in an apocalypse. I avoid the campers in Berenzino, but do enjoy watching people get mowed down repeatedly trying to storm the building. Would level the field a tick on that aspect. Burning down a forest would be pretty crazy, players and animals running like crazy... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fuke (DayZ) 22 Posted May 24, 2014 (edited) There were some Arma 2 mods where you could set people on fire, and even some stuff with forest fires and firefighting (but I heard it was expensive on performance). The graphics weren't amazing but there's no hard reason why they couldn't add more fire stuff in SA if it was worth the time developing.
