Loopest 60 Posted June 25, 2014 (edited) 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 Edited June 25, 2014 by Loopest 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AnyoneInCherno? 187 Posted June 25, 2014 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 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
frosti 2165 Posted June 25, 2014 (edited) 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. Edited June 25, 2014 by Frosti Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Loopest 60 Posted June 25, 2014 (edited) I hope this can get attention from the developers, as it would be a great feature to have in DayZ... Edited June 25, 2014 by Loopest Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think I saw some rattish creature on one of the devs videos. It was kinda like jumping mouse or something. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wooly-back-jack 294 Posted June 25, 2014 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 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

w1lg5r 70 Posted June 26, 2014 Bats would add a huge amount of atmosphere, e.g seeing one at night through the light of your campfire Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
11tw 106 Posted June 27, 2014 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.
