Few Items I Believe Should Be Added

[Redstar Payne 54]

Theres a few items I wish would be in the game that i feel fit the scene and help with some immersion.

 

-One being some food like trail mix, nuts, dried fruits and MRE's like in the mod. I always felt those fit the survival aspect of the game and being an off path type player i felt these really added to my experience in the mod.

 

-Two would have to be torches, grab a stick, add a rag, little gas and BOOM! You got yourself a torch for those night time servers and as well perfect fit for the wilderness guys (better then a flash light in my opinion).

 

-Three for me would be goggles as in shooting goggles not swimming lol. they fit the scenario for the ballistics helmets and the fact when severe weather is introduced it just kinda makes sense.

 

-Four is a kinda hit or miss for me but i would say a radio for those good old chernarsian tunes we all love lol you know since the radio towers are still broadcasting (sarcastic) 

 

-Five is make shift ponchos for those rainy days, find an old beaten tarp or possible a black bag and turn it into a rain shield maybe even a tent if those are introduced to the game which I hope would be.Again just kind of a survivor thing.

 

-Six would have to be traps, nothing big or explosive unless Mr. Hall decides a string tied to a hand grenade would fit but more along the lines of a bear trap or a trip wire that sets off a firework when someone passes through it, good for alarms when the whole base builder is added.

 

-Seven, small lock boxes like the mod as well, maybe only a six slot holder nothing flashy but still decently secure where you can make your own combo but the combination pad shouldnt be anything too difficult to break by guessing a code. Kinda works with a post i read about safes earlier, forgot who made it but its out there and i rather enjoyed the idea.

 

-Eight would be throwing weapons as in hatchets and knifes. Not sure if already confirmed or just a maybe and if is I'm not trying to take credit for it I'm just wanting it to be added lol. 

 

-Nine is more of a game play thing rather then an item but I'd like to see in snowy weather that players move slower and the add an item for this i guess could be make shift snow shoes or just plan snow shoes depending on how the loot would work but if you have sticks and rope i think it would be cool to make some low end ones to help move a little quicker on the snowy turf.

 

Well thats all i have in mind right now, I'm sure when more and more updates come out i might add in something else that i see would be fit. Obviously not everything i said would stick with some players so please voice your opinions and maybe at least two of these could be added to the game with the hopes that the DEVS will keep an eye on this ;) lol Thanks for reading guys!

I could see these ideas being implemented towards the end, small things like this add to realism. Torches and poncho are a must in final release

[DropBearChick 1217]

Four is already in, eight you can throw knifes, not axes (yet) but nothing does damage if thrown at someone(yet)

[fowang 60]

the radio will be put in but you will be able to play anything you want (over the internet)

Thank you kinda the ones i really want to see and use as well.

Not the hand radio if thats what you mean but yeah i saw the throwing and im hoping it will be fine tuned a bit later and maybe actually add in some throwing knifes specifically or something along those lines.

I was hoping for more pre made lore songs based on the land but i can see the benefit of using it over the inter web lol thanks for pointing that out.

To keep it short:

Torches, Traps, Ponchos, Weather, throwable Weapons, a box/safe have already been suggested.

 

I made a thread for ponchos, etc. The DEVs said, that coats can't be made, because coats would clip with the legs. Once the engine is improved, they will add coats.

The same goes for Ponchos, I could imagine. Because a Poncho on a player without backpack&vest looks different than a poncho on a player with backpack&vest.

figured i wasnt the only one who wanted these lol and i do remember the safes as i did post on it ... but yeah i can see the ponchos being an issue just was hoping there would be a way to recongnize if the player is wearing a back pack or not it would change its shape depending on that condition but i can see the fault in it.

I think it would be possible to do this with ponchos in a certain way.

"Just" make models for nobackpack&novest, back&novest, vest&nobackpack and for backpack&vest.

That were 4 models for 1 item.

 

But I think, a Poncho or Coat would look much better, if the collisions with the legs, arms, etc. would be generated according to the player's movements.

Because when the Poncho would be static and didn't move at all, it would look a bit weird ;)

there are ways to make a poncho or coat move around when moving so not to be static in one spot to avoid some clipping and make it more realistic but the time and probably money involved would honestly make a waste of time esspecially when more important stuff needs to be worked on first. The one issue i see even if they do my idea is i can see it running through the back back completely like it wasnt there and as for coats they would just clip through the legs.

[cejota14 130]

[Saunders (DayZ) 21]

I like some of the ideas, especially the dry fruit.. I LOVE DEMM! :P Some are not so attractive in my eyes! But hey ho, awesome post most of them I like and would love them to be implemented into the game :D

[alexeistukov 272]

To help re-enforce the throwing aspect of some melee weapons, i put the ability to do so in some of the descriptions on the Community's Weapon Suggestion List.
