johnjiggles 5 Posted November 2, 2014 I think the ablity to kick and stomp would be awesome kicking a zombie onto the ground then stomping on its head to kill it.and cutting off branches with a machete would give you sticks on the pine trees but ashwoodsticks on ashwoodstick trees. at the moment you can put sticks on the fireplaces so you only need a knife in the wild to make a fireplace but if we could cut branches off the ashwoodtrees it would lowerthe reason to get an axe their fore making other melee weapons an option, because we need an axe to survive at the moment and i think it should be like that it should bewe can use any melee weapon we want Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr_Joe 38 Posted November 5, 2014 Stomping idea sounds a bit good, although I imagine it looking weird though, I don't know why.And I think it'd be good if we could use other melee weapons, but if your using a knife I think it should take a lot longer, maybe a long timed animation, because with a knife you can't cut a branch in one hit. Also, when you post, pay attention to grammar please.

General Zod 1118 Posted November 5, 2014 Considering the fact that those are not half rotten undead. You might find it hard to smash their skull with stomping. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ello 11 Posted November 28, 2014 no stylish kungfu things, but a simple somewhat brutal kick to the knees or stomach.. possibility to break a leg or make the target puke ps: if this has been already suggested i didn't see it... i'm not referring to dead bodies or things, but another fight move along the punching Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Count_Grishnackh 65 Posted November 28, 2014 1 for Chuck Norris round-house (to the face) pls*Tight fitting jeans optional But seriously, would be more for breaking down doors no? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Steak and Potatoes 13480 Posted November 28, 2014 no stylish kungfu things, but a simple somewhat brutal kick to the knees or stomach.. possibility to break a leg or make the target puke ps: if this has been already suggested i didn't see it... i'm not referring to dead bodies or things, but another fight move along the punching Merged and agreed, a kick to create space or put a player onto their back would be nice. Limitations on height and kicking abilites would be an obvious factor as new spawns head punching is quite brutal. Throw in roundhouse kicks as suggested above and you will see plenty of we are not all Jean Claude Van Damme complaints on here and reddit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mor (DayZ) 57 Posted November 28, 2014 I don't know about roundhouse kicks, something tell me it will be a hitbox nightmare in pvp. But otherwise I like the idea of being able to use your feet to break branches and it might be nice for melee purposes. Although i'd prefer they fixed pretty much everything else about melee before hand. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Although i'd prefer they fixed pretty much everything else about melee before hand.You don't fix things if you are going to add new features, because those new feature might break something while being added and you end up in add / fix / add / fix loop . You add all the features and functions and than you fix all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mor (DayZ) 57 Posted November 28, 2014 I don't think you do... Again I am not commenting on how buggy the system is, but that its current design is very poor, something that even after bug fixing wont change... because even if they addressed most of the common complaints about melee, it will still be run in circles twitch hitter.
