Vex_Vehix 436 Posted July 30, 2014 (edited) I would like to hear the community/Dev Team's thoughts on this feature.I think this game would be even more amazing (Kudos!) if you knew who you killed or got killed by. Would make revenge/rivalries that much sweeter. There's is no better feeling when knowing who you are competing with.Maybe a message like: You are dead "JerkFaceL33tzor killed you with a Mosin."And somewhere briefly on HUD. "You killed JerkFaceL33tzor with a Mosin."Even if we could briefly see some type of icon in the players list or both. Little red skull = DeathLittle green target = KillJust something I've been thinking about while at work. Lol Edited July 30, 2014 by Vex_Vehix Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
terra_young@hotmail.com 12 Posted July 30, 2014 I would just perf the "X player has been killed", "X player as commited sucide" thats it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MadWookie 573 Posted July 30, 2014 Nah. I didn't like it in the mod. Won't like it in SA. For example, you shoot someone, think they are dead then they wake up and kill you while you loot their body. Where if you do get a kill message then you know for a fact that they are dead or not. 15 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
-Gews- 7443 Posted July 30, 2014 I never liked servers that displayed who shot me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Katana67 2907 Posted July 30, 2014 Nope. "You are dead" is all I need. 10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Reg Park 160 Posted July 30, 2014 even thou id like to know who killed me, still think it's fine as is!so nay Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GeorgieBest 7 Posted July 30, 2014 I don't think this would be a good idea. But I'm not adverse to the idea of the server keeping track of how many people certain players have killed, and maybe putting out wanted notices for the names of known bandits who have killed lots of people regularly.

calabam 55 Posted July 30, 2014 yeah i would like some kinda message would be nice to kno how i die Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cels 43 Posted July 30, 2014 The one down side is that it can give away who might be in the area or what kind of player. Say you just ran into some random player. They were cool, you got there name, you parted ways in different directions along the road. Not more than a minute later you see his name pops up that he was killed. You now know someone is in that direction not far from you. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ryanincalgary 20 Posted July 30, 2014 I don't really care who shot me. I would like it if it tracked how many times I've died, maybe what I died from and how many players/zombies I've killed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
frosti 2165 Posted July 30, 2014 No, because: - players will not even have to check the body to confirm the kill - griefing - kill admin = ban - muh immersion 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pilgrim* 3513 Posted July 30, 2014 what do you want to see when you diehttp://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/202753-what-do-you-want-to-see-when-you-die/#entry2038060 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MadWookie 573 Posted July 31, 2014 I see your point.Maybe for Regular mode? :)At least an option when private servers are finally launched.When private servers are launched you bet people will make scripts so they are enabled, just like how they will turn half the private servers into what the mod is today, Jets, Tanks and ACR's in every building you walk in.

TheWizard14 372 Posted July 31, 2014 NOpe. It leaves the enemy suspicious and not ready to barge in to loot. No messages = they don't know if you are dead or not, so you can wake up from unconsciousness and rape em. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
soulfirez 901 Posted July 31, 2014 No, because: - players will not even have to check the body to confirm the kill - griefing - kill admin = ban - muh immersionThis pretty much sums it up... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gibonez 3633 Posted July 31, 2014 It will be a server option or someone will make a script for it for private servers eventually. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
