More Trap Ideas

Recommended Posts

I would really love to see a mechanic implemented to booby trap tents/vehicles.

I find a tent, take whatever precious gear I want / can carry. Then rig a hand grenade to it so that the next person to open the tent explodes, destroying them, the tent, and everything inside / near by.

Find a vehicle I can't use, same sort of thing, put a grenade in it, rigged to the door or something.

Obviously it would need some kind of subtle indicator that it was trapped. Nothing remotely obvious or the whole point is lost, but something that if you take 10-15 seconds to inspect the thing you'll be ok.

From the other side of things, maybe you have an extra gun, rig it to the door so that it fires a single shot the next time it's opened. Give it a random chance of hitting different areas of the body. So you don't always die, maybe you get shot in the arm or leg and then are free to loot.

If you inspect the object in question, you can find the grenade/gun/etc and have a chance at defusing it if you want to. Obviously this could go wrong and fire anyway.

Require the toolbox to set up/ take down these traps.
