(Immersive) Animal Suggestions

Recommended Posts

After looking at animal species who populate the real Chernarus, I came across some animals, and if they would be put into the game, it would feel very immersive.

 

  • Bats - They would hang in caves/under rocks hanging off edges (like the rock formations north of Novodomitrigorsk), and if somebody walked by, some of them would fly out in large groups. Just imagine seeing bats fly of a cave in the distance at dusk... spooky!

 

  • Wolves - They would populate the more rural/forest based areas of Chernarus. They would fight you for your catches like Deer and Pigs. Just imagine seeing a pack of 6-7 wolves chasing a deer, or chasing you...

 

  • Lynx (Less know, so I put a picture below) - They would populate the highest regions above sea level, like the rock formations to the most Northeast point of the map. Just imagine seeing a tail of a cat flopping around behind a bush at night... or yellow eyes  :o

 

 

 

LYNX

Im all for wolves. But bats? too unimportant. Lynx? I like them, they are a neat animal, but too rare.

 

Also, if wolves are added, you better be able to make a hood from their head like Ratonhnhaké:ton

Lynx is too qt I don't want to kill him.

 

I want option to throw him a food so he go away.

 

PS.

 

Wolves are bro too, need option to throw them food so they stop attacking so you don't have to kill them.

I hope this can get attention from the developers, as it would be a great feature to have in DayZ...

I think I saw some rattish creature on one of the devs videos. It was kinda like jumping mouse or something.

how about bears?

 

 

could be a bit too harsh, sneaking around the woods in the dark already scared but thinking you are safe and all of a sudden a bear swipes your face off lol

Bats would add a huge amount of atmosphere, e.g seeing one at night through the light of your campfire

The behaviors of animals would have to be worked on extensively. Bears and wolves don't just attack you for no reason... they prefer to try and scare you off, and as long as you don't make sudden movements or look threatening they won't chase you.

 

Bats, while largely unimportant, would make for a good way of immersing the player into the world. Plus, catching bats in nets for food seems feasible.
