Varying degrees of quality

[Macdeth 176]

There are cheap can openers and there are more expensive better made can openers, the same can be said for virtually everything that humans make and buy. Introducing, for example, 2 or 3 different models for certain items instead of one would make looting a bit more interesting and realistic.

 

Cheaper, more common items are fine to begin with (when pristine) but degrade faster and even break for no other reason than they are cheap and nasty, better made and rarer items on the whole could have a longer useful life and degrade at a slower rate and rarely break without warning.

 

Items where this would work best.

 

All Knives/bladed tools/can openers

Tools/gardening implements

Clothing/footwear

Pots/pans

Backpacks

Torches/flashlights

Batteries

Good idea, agree.

I don't know, I think that Dayz could do with more verity in its inventory before they start thinking on spending time on adding "cosmetic" variant to each item like quality can-openers..
