Chokeholds and other moves

In DayZ, theres not that much to do when you encounter a danger other than use your fist.

I was thinking about chokeholding..

It could be used on the infected, since they are just infected humans.

If used on human players, the player being choked has a timelimit (not displayed) due to how healthy he is. The player being choked would have to mash a button in order to escape, however it would be a faster process if he was healthier than the person choking him. After the not known time limit, the player being choked seems lifeless in the guy's chokehold. The guy can either: Put him on the ground and loot or leave OR keep on choking him, because he's probably just unconcious.

The player, awhile being choked, can also fake going unconcious from the chokehold or fake even dying from the chokehold, this will get non-careful players away.

Other moves could also be there, maybe such as kicking and tackles.

anyways, if a healthy person chokeholds a non healthy person, theres a good chance, a high chance, that the healthy person will suceed. If a unhealthy person chokeholds a healthy person, theres a very good chance that the healthy person will sucessfully resist.

A possible scneario encountering could be where you go inside a building that your friend just went in and you see him being chokeheld. Just imagine seeing that.

Possibily another mechanic could be where awhile chokeholding someone, you can take out your sidearm. If the person your chokeholding is being such a pain that you need to finish him off with a bullet, you can do so.

Or he can just aim his gun infront of him, making the person's he is chokeholding friends back off a bit.

There is also the chance of your friend hitting you in the head awhile being chokeheld xD would add tension.

What do you think?

Pointless on players, since you can never sneak up on someone with the 3PP.
